I only remember so much because one son came onto the 11+ thread ranting and raving about comments made after the show was aired. IIRC it was James.

Far too much useless information stored in my head.:o

Ah well the price of going on tv. Don't expect people to like you afterwards and do expect to be recognised. Tv appearances should come with a health warning.

Post on SSM , stickers have been removed...someone said they had 16 now only have 7( I think)...so looks as though SSM are removing posts that are tripe and that then reduces the number of stickers ....mine are still the same '45' and still processing awards .....

mine still shows 51 - fingers really really crossed as tight as I can:D

you are better off playing with JTD and price checking.

WoW Aesop, That is an amazing reply. Thank you :A

I gave up on jtd when Mr T and Asda's car parks became incredibly clean Then Mr T stopped taking the competitor conditional spend vouchers and I now split my shop between T's, Asda, S's and occasionally Morries - depending on where the best offers are and which one has a conditional spend offer at the time.

I looked at the SSM site and thought it was to do with useful and helpful tips, as there seem to be a lot of them.

I'm not sure if I have apps on my phone (it's quite old and I only use it for phone calls ) and I am still trying to get to grips with FB - can't understand why people I've never heard of send me friend requests

Think I might leave SSM alone for now and wait until I've caught up with the FB revolution.

Thanks again

Hi Jeferey, glad the weather's nice enough for you to get on your allottment,

Can I ask if you're setting any seeds off at the mo. I usually buy plug plants in and grow them on, but DGS wants to plant seeds and I'm not sure what to sow yet - no heated greenhouse, so need to use window ledges.

Tried tomatoes last year but set them off far too late apparantly - one or two nice, if small, green tomatoes in November - Also planted some left-over Asda potatoes that had sprouted and they grew well.

Want to grow easy veg, probably in containers - any suggestions please.

Tomorrow Daily Mirror is also doing £5 wys £40
