Oh dear, I already have 27 pages to catch up on!! Not going to happen on my phone this weekend I'm afraid :-(

No t's for me until Monday. Am in Lancashire this weekend, thinking of planning my train home on Monday via a t's but will have lots of stuff with me to lug about anyway- is there a T within close walking/dragging distance from Manchester Piccadilly?

I've been to the Trafford centre today, what a fab place!! Sadly, it wasn't a terribly mse trip for me though and I now have 2 extra bags to get home on the train lol

Hope you are all ok, hugs to those who need them x

Off out in an hour to watch the Olympic torch from the top of my road.

Another thing today I learned that the Bakin Boys muffins on BOGOF - these are not cakes according to the price flop MOCs, none would scan even though I had more than £3 worth :mad:

So stick to vienese whirls instead

Ps I'm on wifi now and it works fine and I didn't really have any problems connecting on my way up yesterday so maybe it's just a cant connect at home thing

I did an experiment today, if it does not work I can always change for another. I noticed a wine on mysupermarket which is where Mr T is supposed to get his prices from which was something like £6.99 in T and £3 in Asda.

So I had a look at Asda.com and the wine was not listed.

So will this wine come back as NA or with a nice JTD ...

Watch this space for the next exciting installment .....

It's Asda that get their prices from msm, not T's apparently - they use asda.com. BUT previously I've bought a particular type of fudge which has always come up N/A whenever I've bought it. Last week I had some on the receipt and it came up as dearer in Asda. Funny thing is that asda.com never has it and msm says it is oos on asda.com but still it was matched up.
I don't know whether your wine would match up with it being oos on asda.com. I suppose the answer with Tesco is that it will probably match up, but only in Tesco's favour.

Just checked out the route for the olympic torch and it will be going just past just down the road so will definately be popping down to watch, and wasnt lucky with tickets for the games but DH has got us tickets for a look round the olympic park:T

Off to catch up on the soaps while I wait for DS to get in;)

we did that in january, they were just starting to build the worlds biggest mcdonalds. :eek: security is very tight. before our tour i popped into boots (the vitiam glitch) and brought 30 tabs and 30 shots. the security flagged the tablets and i had to explain why i had so many vitaims. i said we dont have a bid boots near us ,crossing my fingers behind my back. you cant take pictures anywhere near the security area, but you can on the bus.

Afternoon everybody, free hugs all round. :grouphug:
Thanks for lovely new thread FK. :T

Not done much shopping lately.
Got 6 pk Mr Kipling viennese whirls BOGOF and tesco mini choc rolls. Total £3. Used the £1 off WYS £3 on cakes. Took off £1 plus £1.30 for the bogof and used a 58p JTD to pay.
Total cash spent 12p. Very happy with that. :j

[STRIKE]Looked at Mydeco web site to try to use the £20 voucher, couldn't see anything I want or need so if any of you nice 11+ people know of a needy person just let me know by PM. Would be a shame to let it go to waste. [/STRIKE]

THANKS GO TO MILO FOR DONATING MYDECO VOUCHER.
for some reason I couldn't join the other day it just wouldnt register me so I'm very happy!

OH and I'm also no longer sock less there is however definitely a lurker at one of my locals!!

I have a friend who studies and paints bees for a living and she thinks it's a mining bee (adrena clarkella) . More about it here

Loads more images of it here so it may be able to be identified from that

Another pretty redhead too! I think we have them nesting in the bank under the privet headge. There are often quite a lot around as I get into my car but they have never bothered me or seemed remotely aggressive.

the grape boost purple light one (non-chilled) is very nice

Do you know which one is the least sweetest, please?:)

I've only tried the rose and it was a bit on the sweet side for me!:cool:

i've only tried the rose and the light one. didn't like the rose at all but the light one is yummy, not at all sweet

although i do have quite a sweet tooth, to the point where can eat anything other people find sickly and not notice it myself
