    morning fudge,

    I was thinking about your post last night as I hadn't responded. I really do wish you all the best with your ongoing fight, I personally know how draining it can be and it completely overshadows your life. You are very brave to stand up to them and I am sending you really big ((((hugs)))). If you want to PM me, we can chat.

    It is nearly bed time for me but .............. I have some more news :o as if we haven' enough on our plate at the moment ...... we have got another dog ....... a 9 1/2 week old puppy :eek:

    About 2 weeks ago, my niece's hubbie asked me if we wanted another dog after losing Bonnie, as a friend was looking for a good home for a puppy. I said no, unless it was a heart-string-puller :o:o After mentioning it to Mr 3Dogs when he was in hospital after his appendectomy he asked me to get details, and when we got those details our heart-strings were pulled :o:o

    My niece's hubbie and me picked the puppy up on Sunday afternoon and my neice and family have been looking after it for me until I could bring it home today

    She is a 9 1/2 week old cross between a small Cairn Terrier dog and a small Yorkie !!!!! - popularly called Carkies. She is a little darling and is asleep beside me on the sofa right now :j :j I carried her in a small pet carrier but had her on my knee on the train and she slept 2/3rds of the journey, and was a really good girl

    We have always named all our dogs names starting with B - Ben, Bonnie (1), Bimbo, Billy (1), Bonnie (2), Bess, Bily (2) and now ................. I decided to call her Molly, after my Mam, whose proper name is Florence but who has been called Molly all her life :D She already responds to her name and comes when called :D:D

    I put the paperback there to show her size ....... or lack of it ;)

    I'd best get to bed now ..................... hope Molly settles :D

    Awe Molly is lovely ....

    morning guys and gals...just a little tip re the SSM vouchers....alll the ones I've printed off expire a month after the date I printed them.....well the cleaning/laundry offers end on 18th march...so if you've used a few already to stock up on stuff, might be worth saving some...or not printing the rest off just yet until after then...they might have better offers on other stuff!

    ie, I used 16 of the fairy ones to stock up on washing up liquid and flash floor cleaner.....but I cant use Lenor (kids allergic) and none of the Bold/Ariel/Fairy non bio works out at under 10p a wash at the mo using the coupons...so will wait til after 18th and a) see if theres any OOD SELs (!!!) and b) see if theres any better offers on washing powder!

    If you havent already printed out your laundry ones though, Sainsbobs seem to have a better offer....2 for £9 on the 20 was tablet boxes of fairy non bio and Bold.....if you're doing a simple (non filthy) wash, then I use only one tablet and my magic washing balls from Lakeland......I then get 40 washes from a box...so 80 washes for £6 after coupons......not really a Sainsbobs shopper though so not sure of the rules, but you might be able to use the other mocs from SSM website for an extra £1 off per box!!! :)
    hoping for a very MSE Ts glitching 2012!

    You lot talking about Chelsea Girl...used to love that shop..into town Saturday morning with friends and straight into CG, could always find something you liked there. Another shop we used to spend lots at was Snob...also sadly gone..:( C&A...not seem so long ago since they have gone...the 'departed ' shops we miss..

    3Dogs.... Molly is beautiful and I'm sure she will bring lots of joy..:):)

    SSM coupons..thank-you so much West is Best..went and used 21 in one go yesterday, assistant was fine about them all and asked where they were from...now have a nice little stash of Flash......:rotfl::rotfl:

    Have a good day everyone .....time to clean, have friends coming to stay for the week-end so have to prepare their room.

    Catch you all later...:)

    Morning everyone, was hoping to catch up this morning but this thread moves too fast so may have to wait until this afternoon.
    Did anyone watch OBEM last night? With the really insulting consultant that said to the woman that had miscarried at 20 something wks that they don't usually let "first time Mums" have an elective c-section... :mad: Fair enough about the c-sec, but she wasnt a first time Mum, she lost her first baby:(. Made me so cross. Insensitive woman!! Anyway at least they made the consultant look pretty stupid when they showed that she had got the scan wrong and baby was lying transverse in the end so the woman did end up with c-sec.
    Think i am going to avoid mr t's today. Not really feeling up to it so am taking DS for a walk in one of my favourite places in the middle of the woods with beautiful lakes... I love it there, you can't hear a thing and listening to silence is just amazing...best therapy there is.
    Right I am off for a shower and to get ready...Hope everyone else has a lovely day.
    P.S. I have been trying to win chocolate on fb all week (really resent that fact you have to like tesco to do it lol) anyway did it on my sisters facebook and she won the second hour we tried... and I have been trying all week!!! Think it could be down the the fact she doesnt have a clubcard..maybe trying to get people that dont usually shop in t's to go in..who knows, couldnt care less now I have my free choccy :D
  • Darn it, only just seen this, sorry.

    I was actually on my way to find some whoopsies.....and a productive hunt it was for a change. I picked up a lady who whoopsies in my local and gave her some DTD training tonight lol.

    Got myself sirloin steaks, rump steaks, fillet steaks, diced lamb, lamb steaks, packs of sausages, mushrooms, loads of salad stuff, some leeks, a melon and a large cheesecake and all for 8 quid.

    I might invite a couple of mates over for tea this week....not to be sociable of course, but its the only way I stand a chance of eating down my ruddy food mountain!!! :rotfl:

    I'm getting serious woopsie envy here, the most I ever get is some 30p cookies, a 10p bag of apples or some slightly bruised bananas for 20p. Wish my locals had any meat reduced by more than 10-20% :(
