In case some of you have not been looking at main thread

Post from hovis this morning on FB:

We're really sorry that some of you have had problems redeeming your Homebakes voucher in store. We've temporarily removed the coupon to update it which should mean you won't have any more problems. Look out for more free Homebakes later today!

Wonder if we will be able to re-print:think:

I'm sure they will too fingers crossed they will move to it though.
However if we mentally replace "chat" with "bicker" then its easily avoided.
If they wanna fight let them fight!Pretty sure they are fighting with themselves anyhow!

morning all. So there's trouble at t'mill again? Sheesh, what a pity.

Hope everyone here is ok - it's a chilly day up here brrrrr. found 1p roadkill already, was getting worried as not found any since my bonanza 4 coins a week ago.

DD2 said her hands were cold on the way to school yesterday so we've finally got the box of hats, gloves, scarves and boots out of the garage. Winter stuff lives in the garage when it's warm and sandals/ sunhats etc live there when it's cold. I was all set to do the change over when we had the heatwave a couple of weeks ago. I think the time has finally come for the flip flops to go away (maybe I'll just keep one pair out).

Great idea of BT to move the coupon chat somewhere but not to the drivel thread. MT you know I can get het up and can't imagine imagine how hard it must be for you to keep biting you're tongue(although I suppose sitting on your fingers would be more apt) and not respond. It's hard to say nothing but sometimes the best option.

Off to hand out the washing, my fingers will be too cold to type after that. I might have to warm them with a cuppa.

I read the post once and couldn't make sense of it and coul;dn't be bothered to read it again to make it clear. No doubt I'll be kicking myself later.

This is my OH's favourite bit from ATeam:
Howlin' Mad Murdoch: "How do you take your tea?"
BA Barraccus: "In a cup, fool"

But then he is a man of simple pleasures!

Must be newbie sign up day today, is there an offer on we don't know about? Check out post 9 here:
