    Quick "Stop press" for anyone who's not seen it:

    Missymoo reported on another thread that Tesco have today increased the price of their own white bread flour from 50p to £1.29! :eek: MySupermarket bear this out also. Checking on there, I spotted that Sainsburys still have theirs at 60p, but Asda are currently leading the way at 50p per 1.5kg bag still - I've just been down there and bought 6 bags!

    Apologies for the completely O/T thread hijack! (but not that sorry - I'm about to go and post it elsewhere also!;) )

    Just for info - these are not special eggs but my Mum has 3 lady hens that lay eggs & she gives them away to people (including MG) rather than feeding them to me & the other doggy boy Diego.

    So they are special eggs - THEY SHOULD BE MINE

    Friend of mine lives in Tullibody & her hubby & son work @ Stirling Castle - if no-one else comes forward then I'm sure something can be arranged - @ it'll make me meet up with oldest friend again (earliest memory I have is my Mum standing beside me as I waved across the road at her - age 3)........

  • Many thanks for all your good wishes Folks. It is much appreciated. She is still poorly this evening, but i feel that the docs are now on the right track and we may have a way forward for her.

    Off for a catch up with everyone.

    Good luck with the web site MG.

    I live nearby - I have a car and can collect and would be happy to store them.

    I'll PM you my details.

    Good luck - possitive thought sent. And remember that 80% is good enough - believe this and you will get the other 20.

    Firewalker

    Can I ask what exactly is this 80/20 rule? I've seen it in relation to diets (or healthy eating plans as we call them here;)). Does it mean that you have to do things properly 80% of the time, thus leaving some leeway for bad days/days when things go wrong?

    @Lara44 Lovely to see that you've made some local friends to socialise with

    Nosey and pointless question:o Did Coolties Mum and MG meet on here?

    @MG's DS I live Ireland so I can't get you any garden vouchers but it was such a good idea to ask on here, I bet you'll get loads in the next few weeks.
