  • hello, giving my 'old' printer away today, nothing wrong with it but as the ink is sooo expensive and was needed last month i spent the ink money on a printer that has cheaper inks. I'm not lumbering someone else intentionally with the expense of buying ink for it but someone i know is selling a pc and wants to throw it in with it.

    Oh and i gave my son a rollocking earlier for being a lazy sod :p

    :rotfl::rotfl:

    Today my mam gave me a bag of frozen, uncooked blackcurrants, i've cooked them with some apple and sugar and made 3 crumbles, given one back to them and have 2 for the freezer. I've also made my dad 2 fruit loaves.

    My mam gave me a 1l bottle of Gordons Gin :j:beer: She got it as a present but doesn't drink much spirits so passed it on to me :D

  • Oooh but the best one was last week. Our neighbours were having a clear out and came and asked if we would like a dolls house for DD2. It's one of those big ELC wooden ones, with all the furniture :j They wouldn't take anything for it either, i took them a bottle of wine and some hm cake round though.

    DD2 is thrilled with it, she keeps making the little dolls talk and kiss each other lol. Now her and DS fight over who plays with it :rotfl: And i want to play with it too, i've always wanted a dolls house :o I'm going to get some wallpaper and floors for it lol

    We've only lived here for 6 weeks, lovely lovely neighbours :D

  • My mam gave me bowls of hm potato salad and pasta salad which she had made too much of, plus a tub of coleslaw. This along with some ys chicken kievs and leftover baby potatoes will make a nice easy tea tonight :)

    I gave her half a 3kg bag of pasta because she'd run out (plus i'm wanting to switch us over to wholewheat). We just spend our lives giving stuff back and forth lol. :rotfl:

    My Gran gave me a bag of mushrooms and 4 carrots and i made my Grandad a dundee cake.

    Today i'll be giving my friend a hm birthday card and also a baby monitor that we no longer need. She in return will pay me with unlimited cuddles from her new baby when it arrives! :D

    My DD gave me a cardboard box full of waste paper for recycling as her bin is full after redec'ing a bedroom. She knows my green bin only ever has one or two bags a fortnight and they're a family plus various dogs and parrot, so I brought it home (9 miles!) to put in mine. Isn't it nice when we can do silly things like that for each other, not just think that giving is all about gifts? ;)
  • Hiya, a trainee of mine today bought me lunch which was to show his appreciation.
    Mother gave my little (big) one a stapler and she's over the moon.
    My son gave me a loooooveeeeerrrrrly shoulder massage earlier and im giving myself an early night :-)

    I cleared out my DD wardrobe yesterday, splitting the clothes 5 ways (a bag each to 2 friends DD, a bag for my DN, a bag for local nursery and a bag of rags for pennies). Today when I was buying my daughter some things in a 70% off sale I liked a jacket for her but it wasn't in the sale :-( I happened to say to the SA it was a pity as I liked it...she said I could have it for 70% off :-)
    I love MSE freebies and comps. Thanks posters

    A lovely poster here sent me some rhubarb and ginger jam.

    I also found a lovely blue retro dustbin on the way home.

    Ooh and loads and loads of plants from my first boyfriend's Mum's garden!
    Here dead we lie because we did not choose
    To live and shame the land from which we sprung.
    Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose,
    But young men think it is,
    And we were young.
