Folks, I would like to introduce you to a new word. Cronking. It's an old family word, my great-grandma was known to use it but the origins of it have been lost in the mists of time.

Cronking.

It means reading on the toilet!!!!!!!

"Where's TBN?"
"She's busy cronking."

"Pass me that paper, I'm off for a cronk".

"TBN is a champion-standard cronker."

Cronk has quite a different meaning these days on urban dictionary

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=cronking

I wouldn't want to hear DH saying he's off for a cronk with that meaning - reading on the loo is fine though, there's always a book or magazine near our loos

Right, gotta go folks, house is a tip & I'm freezing so must do some housework to get warm again. Might not be around for a bit, depends on some news we get later - off to hosp this afternoon with my Pa. He's got cancer & today we find out if the chemo has been succesful & what happens next. Please keep all your fingers crossed for us.

Do we think/know the £5 will be usable in T's ( Me hope so - infact me pretty sure me can use it) Does it say Save £5 wys £40 (yes) or something else, also do you need original receipt to use ( yes because the £5 wys £40 has the 4 digit receipt number printed on the voucher - exactly like the APG receipt)

If they are usable and someone had a spare they could email (Assuming no receipt needed to use and it can be emailed:o:o - See told yer I have absolutely no idea how the apg works:(:() I would be very grateful :beer:

I would have posted it to you the £5 wys £40 but me need to use the receipts:D:D:D & Asda will not let you use the £5 if you don't show them the receipt:o
