    I've come up in a terrible rash! :eek: The only thing I've done differently is started a new shower gel - Original source strawberries and cream, smells divine but will have to discontinue it til I can ascertain the cause! :o

    I've only caught up from 4pm onwards.....

    Blondy - So sorry to hear about your OH's sickness :eek::(You're not in the doghouse, you're lovely :D

    Equally neither are you missy.moo, you most certainly didn't upset me :A I think there might be a few crossed wires as so often happens when you're communicating in writing as aposed to a spoken conversation where something can quickly be corrected if misinterpreted.I'm all for mutual respect and treatiing those as you wish to be treated which I think is the conclusion you were both getting at underneath it all so hugs all round :A

    Nikki - :A:A:A A very very very lovely lady, I am sockless no more! :D:TTHANK YOU (again:o) A great recommendation regarding scanning of 1p items, that's what I do too :D I also have a thing about counting out all my loose change and using that all up if there's enough supplies ;) Lets face it when else can you use up your 1ps?? :D DS + slippers :rotfl::T

    Snap+fourp - Sorry about the bus service :mad: Mine have all changed recently too and I get terrible travel sickness when I'm not driving so the fact the route is 50% longer is killing me! Am so glad you had a lovely day though, sounds wonderful :D And thanks Snap :A

    bubbs - So pleased you were spared from the floods, phew! :T and thank you :A Oh and well done on the chocs :D

    Enterprise 1701C -Thank you :A Sorry to hear about your OH :( But really hope it's all good news and he's back to 100% ASAP :)

    Home at last, and I can now tell you all where I have been. Just spent a week in Turkey. 2 years ago I set up a FB page to free 2 dolphins that were in a pool smaller than a tennis court. It has been a long journey. On Thursday I was very privileged to see Tom and Misha swim to freedom, back to the blue.
    This is the back story.

    Hi, very well done to you. I have been to Hisaronu many times over the years and I am well aware of the story and have seen the pool where the dolphins were, and have been following this awful story from the beginning.

    So good for something to have such a happy ending. :j:j:j

    do you think it was appropriate on this thread?


    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    It would be the first thing that wasn't.
    Hope is not a strategy.

    :D

    Lacking energy at the moment, so it's hit and miss with the bike at the moment :( hopefully things will pick up when they are good and ready.
    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

    Well done but why the secrecy!:cool:

    Maybe to do with Turkish bureaucracy (the land of back-handers). Getting anything done in Turkey is rarely straightforward and tends not to go according to the best laid plans - (plans which inevitably involve back-handers to achieve the smooth flow of voluminous paperwork).

    Morning everyone. Dry, sunny and cold for a change today.

    Have read back and off for an early start. Fancy some marmalade on toast and of course I dont have any marmalade. (That's with seeing the picture of the Seville). Have to decide which direction to go Tesco-ing now - which stores may have a Kosher section (and hopefully 1p chocs).

    Hope you rediscover your mojo soon, Westie.

    Fudge_Cake, your inbox is full and I just thought of a PS:

    Did you see that thing on the news this week about them using Botox to help migraine sufferers? I think it said 60% of patients found the frequency of their headaches reduced by a half. Imagine - and a free beauty treatment thrown in! :p Might be worth considering?

    (Hope that doesn't constitute giving medical advice, Redfox :))

    And Happy, good to see you around again, do drop in and let us know what's happening in Happyworld. :)

    Morning Elite - fabulous sunshine :)

    Planning some time today at the sadly neglected allotment - avoided it while everywhere was turning into a swamp, so will be good to catch up on things.

    T sent me some codes (x3) for £5 off an on-line shop to entice me back, but the spend was too high (£50) so I didn't bother. Thanks to Tony and Karlie I think these may be used now :D
