    OK, lemon drizzle cake made through lots of tears. It was my dad's favourite cake and also my late father-in-laws, so always think of FIL when I make it anyway, now will always think of dad too.

    Just had a knock on the door, still not showered or hair done, but reluctantly opened the door. It was a delivery of a beautiful bouquet of flowers from a very special friend who really could not afford such a gesture. Some people are just so kind. :A:A




    I bet your dad would be so pleased you have made his favourite cake for tomorrow.

    What a lovely friend sending you some flowers, its gestures like that that make you realise she was thinking of you at this sad time.

    Can't tell my DH you've made a lemon drizzle cake, its his favourite and he would moan at me to make one.:)

    take care hun and hope all goes smoothly tomorrow. We will be thinking of you.

    I don't know what your so cheerful for as it has been a terrible month for you. Your Uncle is obv not very happy with you as he has not given you so little since Novemeber:eek::eek: I think BP and CW's Uncles have been more generous:D:D

    I think you forget that my totals are ONLY what has been REDEEMED in the month.

    Sometimes I don't need to shop so much, what with past bulk buying and other offers I've quite a good stockpile. For example, I still have a fair quantity of various tinned goods obtained for very very little over 3 years ago :D

    And I'm NOT a FIND, CHECK & PRINT immediately person (that gives a short 28 day expiry period) and then "SPEND" as soon as possible - mine are valid for about 6 months :j (redeemed a February receipt only last week)

    As for my actual CASH outgoings at A last month ? I got change out of a FIVER :rotfl: ...

    ... and just checking my ωallet :cool:, I've already got a dozen or so All Purpose Gift vouchers of over ω1 that amount to ω71 in total

    and I've 50 to 60 smaller ones (but more than ω0.60) worth about ω40 :)

    My Uncle's in fine health and abounding in generosity :p
