    I have :D:D He texts me saying... "4 bottles of wine for Free :D:D"
    I sometimes feel jealous especially if I'm stuck at work and he's getting it for free:o:o:o:o:o i want to join in:D:D

    We did when the wine festival was going on. I grabbed 4 bottles and my dad grabbed 5 of another type of wine. 30 mins later, we're both laughing in the car:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: 9 bottles for Free = job done:o

    Doesn't he grab a couple of extra bottles for you when is DTD-ing?:eek:

    HC is missing out on my favourite foraged plant: wood sorrel!!

    (more 3 leaved plants for me!!).Wonder where the expression comes from? Sounds cool!
    You are so lucky with the wild raspberries :)I've looked in vain for wild raspberries but I've not given up hope! I do have quite a few cultivated canes though in my garden.


    Enterprise, whereabouts are ya! Wouldn't mind foraging in your garden!;)
    I've yet to see a cobnut. They sound intriguing.

    We're lucky if we get any as more often than not the birds beat us to them.:(

    silly question but are wild raspberries any different from cultivated ones thanks..

  • Im afraid my OH gets annoyed if I put supermarket diesel in my car, its because its well known as being dirty fuel.... From experience, we have tried filling the car up with T's fuel and filling up with Shell fuel and we did get quite a bit more per gallon from the fuel we got from Shell... This was about 5 years ago..

    yeah I've said to her that I'm sure it's perfectly okay nowadays or people would complain?

    but as Karlie said, it does get a discussion going. Seen it on HUKD a few times when someone posts "Asda cutting fuel AGAIN...." :eek:

    They are much much smaller, some would say they are not worth picking but the flavour is intense.
    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

    I never got into fights, I think my worse moment was in whole school assembly for some reason it was an extra long assembly and we had been stood there almost an hour and everyone was listless, the girl infront of me started picking her nose and eating it :(, first time I poked her and told her to stop it, second time I poked her harder called her a name and told her to stop, third time I smacked her across the head so hard as she went down she took 14 others with her like domino's :(

    love it :rotfl:
