  • Lots of pics from my walk with the dog today......got catching up to do and tea to have so they will appear in ones and twos tonight rather than in one post, sorry.

    First one to kick it off was one of the last pics of the day as the sun went down. I just liked the lighting.

    Back from asda not much to report. No greenhouses of any type.

    Just missed the 10p whoopsies, too busy trying to find misery guts. Did get some curry sauce for 10p and cake for the same. Wombling was ok; someone left a shower gel at the ss :-)

    Going for cheap wine in the morning. Got my 4/30 and various jtd's to be used. Hopefully should come out quite nicely :-)

    Hi everybody I hope you are all well. I had a good whoopsie run tonight but the pinnacle moment was at Mr W I bought clementines three bags for 29p forgetting that they were on offer for 2 for £3. so I got 98p off my shopping so was paid 11p to take them away.This hasn't happened to me for ages.
    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 :hello:
    Had a really carp day :( DS has completely pushed me to the limit today and I know it's because he is not well but jeez louise, I have had to have the patience of a saint. I've had numerous little cries and felt sorry for myself and so have missed 20 odd pages ( I always read back and catch up but don't have the energy tonight so Happy, can i borrow your skipping rope please?!).
    My problems are not problems in comparison so I don't mean to be insensitive to anyone. I'm going to pull my socks up and open a ben &jerrys (big breath in, then a big breath out to get rid of the utter carpness of the day):o

    I did see that Flo Flo had the funeral today, i really hope it went as well as can be.. i really feel for you.

    I hope tomorrow is better. Sounds like you did really well keeping patient. It really is the best response when kids are being trying (hard to practice I know!)

    Enjoy your Ben and Jerrys - tomorrow will be better!

    please be careful as OH was trouted big time today wombling at asda:eek:
    he had just left the car and he usually checks the trolley bays on the way into the store and had checked the first bay and was walking towards the next one when someone in a suit and name tag from the store came up to him and told him it was fraud and that if they saw him doing it again they would get the police:(
    told OH that they had got the reg number of the car:(

    according to the article below it's not illegal but not sure now.
    (hope the link works) anyone know if it is?

    http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/news/shopping/2011/03/the-wombler-who-donates-from-asda-and-tesco-bins

    I wouldn't worry too much, there is a trolley guy working at my local Asda that I regularly see picking up receipts from trolley and floor and putting in his pocket. If I was ever to be stopped I would calmly say that they need to look closer to home than picking on a customer? Hate it when I see him working as I know receipts will be limited that day :rotfl::rotfl:
