Afternoon lovelies :hello:Is it safe to come out of hiding? :(

I'm having a really difficult time at the moment, lots of different things all steaming from my home life situation and I just didn't feel able to contribute for a bit. I nipped in and out a couple of times without signing in and when I saw 1p Easter chocs I knew it was time to join in again :o:D:rotfl:

So wanted to thank the OP that posted about 1p Haribo eggs (sorry I've forgotten ) and everyone else that contributed.

Thank you so much to everyone for the support regarding the dentist!! I had my check last Friday and it was confirmed I would need a root canal filling :eek::(:(:(:(But the 1st app available was 13th June! :eek: So I said please can I be put on the cancellation list as I was uncomfortable waiting that long as I knew the pain would flare up atleast once! Anyway on Tuesday morn I had a phonecall to say cancellation on Weds afternoon so I went for it. Was shaking and crying when I got in there, I really am petrified (It seems so silly to me after all I've been through medically but it's just that damn drill!) The dentist, bless her, was absolutely fantastic, she talked me through the whole thing and was very calm. The injection was very sore as she had to inject in the abscess! But after that I didn't feel anything because as she suspected the tooth was already dead. So I've got a temp filling and antibiotics, and I'm going back on 13th June (or before) for the permanent filling and to decide whether or not to have it crowned. I'm tempted to just have it crowned anyway but apparently there's a risk of the root filling not working if the infection doesn't clear up. In which case the tooth would need removing anyway! :eek:

I had the hospital yesterday so I decided to do the T's round trip, 70 miles this time :eek: (although it would have been 35 just for the hospital so I'll not feel tooooo guilty:cool:) Hosp didn't go too well, my blood tests have been consistently poor for a couple of years and there's always been a question mark about changing meds/upping doses and my consultant feels it can't be left any longer because there's something wrong somewhere which could even be the start of kidney failure So I'm starting a new drug today which will replace one I've been on for 18 years! Fingers crossed there's no side effects. Bloods now every week for 2 months then it'll change to alternate weeks.

Left the house at 10am, got back at 11:30pm!!!!!!!! 19 T's!!!!!! :eek: That's a new record for me

The one thing I wanted more than anything was Malteaser bunnies and the Express I had high hopes for had 1p SELs from yesterday morning so someone went and bought all 4 big boxes :mad::(:(:( In all 19 T's I didn't find 1!!!

The last store I went in (superstore) at about 10:30pm and they were restacking shelves. There was a big crate in the aisle with an Easter plaque thing in it that I thought would be worth scanning but turns out it was £1! The SA stacking shelves saw me and asked if I wanted help so I said I was looking for Easter things for a children's party (neighbour's little girl) Well, she proceeded to remove a huge crate with old stock in and we had a rifle through and found snow bites (now £1.20) lindt xmas balls (now £1) and a bag of halloween chupa chupps (£1) !!! But no Easter things so she said bear with me, I'll go have a look. Comes back with 3 full boxes of Mint Lambs, 1 box of Haribo tang fast chicks (17 bags) and 4 single cadbury caramel bunnies (the 65p ones) :eek::TBut then an SA said hang on let me scan them, no they're 1p can't sell :(:(:( So I said I'd been to an Express and seen the 1p SELs so I knew they could. Lovely lady SA says I'll go speak to manager. 5 mins later comes out and sayscan't sell them to you at 1p, won't go through the till but as you asked nicely he's happy to waste them off and let you take them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek::j:j:j:j:j:jI was so grateful, I couldn't believe it! What a lovely manager!! :T In the end I have 159 items for 83p ;

5 Cadbury Caramel bunny twinpacks #9515

I'm sockless Even after 19 stores I'm blooming sockless :eek:

But in the end I came home crying On my way down through the woods, the car in front of me hit a baby fox. I couldn't just leave it so I went back to see if I could see it. I don't know what I was planning to do but I couldn't just leave it there Anyway I couldn't find it so I was just hoping it was ok :( Then I went to the final store and as I was coming out of town, driving only at 30mph but with some idiot boy racer up my bum, a hedgehog ran across the road. I swerved but not enough and I killed it :(:(:(:( I went back to check I hadn't just injured it but it was dead So I just burst out crying. It might sound sappy and stupid but I'm such an emotional wreck at the moment and I love animals. We have a hedgehog that frequents our garden and has done for a few years, they're such cute little creatures. I can't stop thinking about it even now

I hope everyone's well, I'm sorry there's really no hope that I'll ever catch up much as I love you all

Thank you so much to those who have left me messages (which I'll check now) and those on fb too :A

does sweating, feeling shakey heart flutters indicate I am in withdrawal symptoms.

Possibly but easily confused with glitch symptoms as they are identical lol:D

OMG, I've been away a week and I am trying to catch up - that is if I ever get to finish emptying cases and sorting out ebay for the weekend. Started off with a very nice weekend away and a trip to Dublin, followed by a trip to Edinburgh.

Then we got stuck in Oxford overnight on Wednesday after we were involved in a train crash. Dont ask, nobody hurt just a herd of cows. Brain still feels like mush trying to make sense of it all

Have to compose a Sainsburys list to spend £20 and use all of my nectar points vouchers and conditional spends and hopefully get a brand match MOCS (and also take some stuff back if I can find the right receipt).

And then there is the Tesco £40 shop - I got yet another set of conditional spends for £20 and £40 shops today and all I can think of getting is yet more cat food. Wont have a chance for days to check for glitches and good JTD potential using price flop MOCS

And this is all before I catch up with everything you lot have done over the last week :T

What about nannylala's pink trolley bag [/QUOTE



She's very protective about who she lends her pink trolley to;)

Don't think she would mind lending to Trouty
