Morning everyone.

Hope all are well.

Strawberry pancakes for breakfast today.

If anyone is using the £1 off £3 bakery flop, the bloomer with salt and pepper is £1.10 and maybe the yummiest bread have tasted to date.

Ham and cheese ploughmans for lunch with bloomer door steps.

Using the £2 off £7 meat flop, got a humungus bone less pork joint £9 for £7.

It's in the oven roasting, the root veggi pack ( £1.50 each buy 2 use 1 price flop = £2 contains carrot,turnip, onion and swede) is in the slow cooker.

Dinner sorted.

Carlseberg chilling in the fridge.

Don't know about the rest of you, but i'm itching for some glitching.

Off for a womble.

That all sounds horrendous hun :mad:

It does remind me of once when my Mam & Dad where visiting us in P'boro a few years ago now, and Mam had a bad asthma attack. We called my GP out but by time he came she was much better. The next day she was much worse but when we rang and spoke to the same GP he told us to get her to the surgery and he'd see her there. We had to bring the car into our square, where cars aren't allowed and it is all paved, to get her in, and half carry her into the waiting room. The doc was coming out to reception when he saw her and we saw the look of shock on his face. He took us straight into a treatment room to put her on a nebuliser. He was ever so apologetic. He then arranged for me to collect the nebuliser each night for her to use overnight as long as I returned it each morning, which worked out fine

Thanks 3dogs, with all the worries you have and you take the time to answer my post:o, I called her at 10.30 this morning to see if she took her tablets at 8am, but i woke her up! Shes taking them now and will ring me back, so I know she has not fallen back to sleep. No more diazipam, so hopefully she will be more alert today!

I left a message yesterday on 1571 for her and she apparently thought it was a conversation, as she can remember talking back to me, but said i put the phone down quite abruptly!

Hope she improves soon, we have our first family trip abroad during half term (only Paris, so not that far) but i did talk to other half about the possibility of him taking the kids and me staying if she doesnt improve:(. She used to have a care package, but cancelled that as they carers were rubbish, so it fell back onto my shoulders.

Im going to look into the possibility of a warden visiting her just to keep an eye on her if its possible, it would put my mind at rest.

Planning the family holiday itinerary for half term, we've got a cottage in Wells-Next-to-the-Sea. Any thoughts? My kids are 2 and 5 animal, car and train mad. FK/Leenie is this your neck of the woods?

Wells is lovely.

You need to explore the coast. To the east is the seals at blakeney point. Take a boat trip from morston. Blakeney itself is pretty.

Crabbing on cromer pier.

Steam trains at sheringham.

Military vehicles at the mussleborough collection near weybourne.

Windmills to see on route. Cley, weybourne.

To the west is holkam with its free roaming dear. Bird reserves at holkam and titchwell. A loooong scenic walk can be had at Burnham overy staithe. Theres another windmill there too.

If you fancy a day with crowds, a funfair and all that then try hunstanton. Worth checking for 'whats on' at hunstanton as they have few festivals and things over the summer which are great fun. Watersports demos, BMX biking displays etc along with motorbikes and car displays etc.

Does anyone here eat Flora Buttery? We usually have butter but looking at good alternatives with the Price Flop. If they compare then the 500g is £1.95 in T and £1 in A so therefore

2 x £1.95 = £3.90
- £1 Price Flop = 2.90
-£1.90 JTD = £1 total.

Anyone had them compare or know how it tastes? TIA

Oh, and can it be frozen??

littleladybug

Forgetting loads today! Also, Coke Zero on 2 for £2 in A at mo and have defo had that price check before so will be stocking up again
