    We had broccoli & stilton soup with whoopsied garlic & cheese baguettes.

    We had pizza last night.

    Popped down to T's today for a few bits (the rest will wait till Wednesday), and actually managed to get a few wombles, the girl on SS was not in attendance and my hand slipped into the bin, have to wait and see what happens. Also got a roaster chicken on a separate receipt to the rest of my stuff, and one of the wombles has 20 cc points on it.

    Lovely sunny evening here at the moment.

    Some interesting silver spoon shimmer balls came in the post today, very blue I have to say, might go on the Mary Berry cupcakes I have not yet made up!

    I am so cross with myself, I went to the odeon in the red dragon centre cardiff with my groupon cinema tix and left my best sunglasses in the cinema.

    Didn't realise until we were nearly home, phoned the cinema and could only get a generic 0871 number who couldn't get an answer from the cinema, she even took my number and phoned me back just now to say she can't get through still, but has emailed them. How rediculous that they can't contact the cinema!

    Evening all. Just back from seeing the Olympic flame in Inversnecky and a wee concert with Emili Sandi and Twist & Pulse performing.

    I tried to buy the Birdseye meal deal the other day and it didn't work for me either. I had the right things but the discount didn't come off so I told the SA I didn't want them :o

    Make sure you send it back where he has to sign for it or he may never receive it and you won't get a refund.

    My best friend sent a parcel to me recorded delivery yesterday. It arrived this morning but the postman just put it through the letter box. So much for signing when receiving it :mad: What was the point of paying for the additional service?
    I don't normally moan about royal mail but they recently also managed to lose some very important documents that we sent special delivery. They never arrived at their destination yet RM insist they are just lost but not stolen :mad: how do they know that if they can't find them? :mad::mad::mad:
