My doctor said I need to do something that gets me out of the pub.

So I've started smoking.

Kadison - mmm :think: interesting about the water filter. Sainsburys online shows the white version as half price at £16

and the black XL version as half price at £16 too

POSSIBLE GLITCH ALERT THEN!!!!!

I saw this in my local again today with an SEL of £16, when I got it the other day there was no SEL so I just took it to the till and it came up as £9.60 half priced down to £4.80 (Sainsbob's show both prices on the SS tills) - possibly worth a go if you want a water filter!!

Mine is the Elemaris white (slim box as the filter fits in the fridge door).

:D:D

I loved my Disco, it was the second generation (V reg) but spent 3 years as a demonstrator/courtesy car so was well looked after. The person I bought it from converted it to LPG (couldn't afford to run a 4 litre V8 on petrol:eek:) Insurance for me was only £400 but then the LPG went wrong and I couldn't get anyone that knew about the system fitted to my car to sort it, several hundreds of pounds later we narrowed it down to one of two two things then some :eek::eek: vandalised it between christmas and NY. Insurance wrote it off and I got my money back plus a bit more.

I've vowed never to touch LPG again! A couple of years later I bought a Defender. I paid £1,100 for it but got offered £2,400 a week later so snapped the guys hands off.:D Which meant I was able to clear some debt I had and pay mum back the money I owed her. I kind of regret selling it though.

Morning!! Lol! Well my 'be back in a bit' turned into 'be back in 9 hours!!'

Doggies had a lovely long walk around the seafront in the end and got very muddy so it was yet again bath time when we got home. Then this evening I've been out for a pub quiz Popped to T's on the way Searched the store pretty thoroughly I think and all I managed to find was 1 disney princess stocking and 1 Me to You mallow bear lolly. Still something's better than nothing!

Gonna catch up on this evening's telly I missed and a bit of the thread. Hope all's well xx

Hi HC glad to see you are back:)
I'm a bit late I know but have been having car troubles and not feeling up to much. Havn't been keeping up for a week and decided to log in and see what was happening. Can't escape car talk :rotfl:

Have I missed anything else important ?

Fudge_Cake_2

Arghhhh can't stay awake any longer, even to watch Cupcake Wars!!

I only got as far as 5:30 so will endeavour to do some speed reading in the morning!

Sending hugs to DODO and Beki And also my_old_mans_a_dustman..... relax lovely, you're amongst friends! Like others have said, the rumours are what makes it exciting, hanging on the edge of our seat and waiting for confirmation. Don't ever feel bad or embarassed xx

Night night Elite, see you tomorrow xx
