    Hi everybody after saying I was not shopping, I did a whoopsie run, I am so glad I did. Loads of reduced fruit and yoghurt's that will last the week, all the bread I need for the week, reduced salmon, I had to walk away from burgers that had been reduced because of no room in the freezer, I should really get another one.
    I hope you all have a good evening
    Mortgage debt 45,000. Thank you all for your help so far in helping me save to buy the house. I could not have done this without all your help.

    Evening all
    Phew!! Just about caught up from last night.

    LTF Good to see you posting and good luck with your therapy. :)

    Nannylala So sorry to hear about your sister. Don't give up hope though because my IL has seen off breast cancer three times now and has been in remission for 14 years following her double mastectomy.:)

    Evening everyone! :)

    Heading back to Manchester tomorrow. :D

    When I placed the Carling orders some days ago I did one order for myself and another for my Mum back in Wales. I really didn't think I'd get anything delivered as it was posted on HUKD as well as here. There's a jubilee party happening where my Mum lives and we're having a student jubilee celebration in Manchester.

    To my surprise a delivery man knocks on our door this afternoon with 105 bottles of Carling!! Couldn't believe it!! He had LOADS more in his van and he said he was delivering in rural parts of Wales.

    :eek:

    So that's 210 bottles between me and my Mum for our own celebrations in Wales and Manchester! There are gonna be a lot of happy people in a few days time.

    :D

    Off to catch up now on 400 posts!!

    I echo the sentiments in Mad's post :D

    SpirallingDown all your hard work was not in vain. The vast majority lucky to attend such a fantastic event will have gone away like this.....:D:D:j:D:D

    Of course when it's a few selfish, nasties that feel their need is far superior to others, it's easy to get caught up looking at the negatives after all the effort you went to. But allowing them to cast a shadow over the ray of sunshine you brought to so many people today would allow them to win and losers should never, ever win. So chin up chicken and rest assured that they shall get their comeuppance.

    What you and the fellow organisers of the fun day accomplished and how much effort you went to puts me to shame. Being so heavily involved in the local community and schools, you should be very very proud of yourself.

    I hope your appendix held out and you're not in any pain. Please try and relax tonight and do something for YOU :Axxxx
