Oh, only because I don't agree with breeding. I won't go into the why's or what for's and please don't think I am judging you for breeding because I'm not.

Maybe you could book an appointment with your vet and discuss it properly, obviously you would have been very upset when you spoke with him last time, so this time when you are less upset you can ask any questions you need to ask etc. I know whenever I have been in an "emergency" situation at the vets and upset I can never remember half of what's gone on!

So glad that she is picking up, everything crossed for you that she continues to improve :A

Thanks magicowen yeah she's going back next week so I will ask for as much info as possible. I mean I've read quite a lot over the net. But there's so many conflicting stories as everyone has different views. She is feeling more herself tonight. So hopefully she will be back to her old self again very soon.

Lesleysanderson... So sad to read that the puppies died...:(:(Hope mother dog soon makes a full recovery..xx

Thank-you to both Gardenia and Aau1 for the Ketchup glitch..bought two bottles :T:T:T

A house alarm is going off outside and I'm not sure if it's mine. Have tried turning mine off. It sounds odd but sometimes it sounds as if it is my alarm then at other times sounds like it could be the neighbours. I can not find the contact details of company who fitted alarm and have to wait till husband gets home...if it is my alarm sounding then the neighbours are going to be happy...not..:o:o

Thank you Gemini jes

Did you read this?

Made from natural ingredients – tomatoes, vinegar, sugar, salt and spices – what can possibly be wrong with tomato sauce? Well, let’s talk salt. The Food Standards Authority defines a high-salt food as one with 1.25g salt (0.5g sodium) per 100g and a low-salt snack as one with 0.25g salt (0.1g sodium) per 100g. A typical bottle of Heinz Tomato Ketchup contains 3.1g of salt (1.2g of sodium) per 100g.

High consumption is linked to raised blood pressure, strokes and heart attacks. Average daily salt consumption is 8.6g against a recommended maximum of 6g.

Last year the UK’s Food Standards Agency published salt-reduction targets for 2012, which focused on bread, meat products, breakfast cereals and convenience foods.

For tomato sauce the agency noted that the average salt content across all brands was around 2.4g salt (1g sodium) per 100g. Revised 2012 targets aim to take this down to 1.83g salt (730mg sodium) per 100g. Heinz and all the other manufacturers of tomato sauce clearly have a long way to go.

While we're looking at the fine print, the FSA also defines high-sugar content as being 10g per 100g. Heinz Tomato Ketchup contains 23.7g sugar per 100g :eek::eek::eek::eek:

I mentioned a couple of weeks ago about taking my excess glitching items to the food bank but kept forgetting. Seeing FKs posts today I finally got my backside in gear. I'm not a religous person so I was a bit wary of going to a church but the folk there couldn't have been nicer. They wanted to know how I heard about them and was I sure I could spare so much stuff. I briefly explained 'glitching' and told them if all went well, I'd be back next week with more stuff plus some ketchup!

It may not sound like much but given how small our wee country is, I was surprised to hear that tonight alone, the foodbank had helped 5 families. I had a quick look around what they have and apparently UHT milk is something they always run out of so I've made a mental note. Now I hope this doesn't get them into trouble but the organisation that runs the foodbank is quite strict. I asked do they take stuff other than what they have listed on their website and was told they keep a wee stash of extras. As the girl said, if people can't afford food, how can they afford 'luxuries' such as shower gel, lady products etc.

I am giving serious consideration to volunteering with them but in the mean time, each and every glitch could mean the world to a stranger so bring it on. :j

Oh and would some kind person be able to PM me the process for using the Huggies coupons please (in detail sorry - baby steps and all that )? I know someone posted before but I can't remember the details. I want to donate some nappies & wipes etc as I know how expensive they are as a parent.

Away to find the OPs for the ketchup. My shop from 9pm tonight worked :j
