    The important part is what is written on the card the new ones have feel fresh socks written and the "special" packs don't say feel fresh just boys sports socks they do ten in 3-4 diff sizes and as long as they are all £4 ones with same writing and white it will work. Think other items been reported too but not had chance to read properly. Tights bikinis costumes and few other hits I think are 4ping also.


    Thanks for the pic, will get looking for them:beer:

    Must be the shock of her accident that did it. She might settle down again when she feels better.

    I doubt shes going to settle down, she was a cronic egg layer before. Going to call the vet on Mon and see what he thinks, poor girl.Shes sitting plumped up on her egg, in the budgies cage.

    so glad PM that Bella is on the mend.

    Happy with the andrex/kleenex thing, been so long since Ive been in my local T, didnt realise it had had a makeover. About time, not so for the staff though, still miserable lot. Used the kleenex 50p from fb too, all well.

    Great news about my mum. Pneumonia was confirmed but amazingly it is resolving, slowly of course. Mum's oxygen has been reduced with the aim to come off completely by Monday. Nebuliser redundant! Just waiting for a bed in her local (Burnham on Sea) cottage hospital to become available for rehab. Yesterday she was encouraged to wash herself and dress which she sort of managed. Will be a long recovery. This is the 4th bout of pneumonia in the last 10 years, along with two minor strokes, several leg ulcers. To quote Dolly Parton "she's a sparrow when she's broken, but an Eagle when she flies". I have been carrying with a sense of foreboading that this could be "it" when she was taken in. Dear Mum has proved me wrong! Without the oxygen tubes Mum can now engage in conversations with her ward mates and the elderly lady brought in on same day that my mum was convinced was a man, lol, she has found to have a lot in common with. Bless.

    Still my heart is in a quandry but it is less stressful, I am just so relieved that Mum is not suffering and struggling to breath so much any more.

    Bump is growing! Id forgotten how frustratingly slow each week in pregnancy drags. I want little Luca here now for a cuddle!

    Bless to CM little boy, taking his first steps. Have a little mental picture, thanks for that.

    Love and hugs to all x

    Good to hear your mum is improving MAGS:A

    Thanks Aesop, I will keep trying for a bit longer yet although I am sure I will need help in the end! Did eventually manage to tear myself away but will certainly have another go. The weather has been fantastic here today (for October) so I did get out in the garden until my son and granddaughter came round. Just as well they did or I would have carried on too long and then regretted it!

    In Mr T they have 4 packs of andrex loo roll which have a special promo on at the mo which says you will get a gift at the till which this week is a £2.99 moc for kleenex shine sheets (stupid tiny little pck of stuff you would never buy them for £2.99) but they are only £1.50 at the mo so rest comes off your shopping.

    do this:

    first buy 1 pack of the andrex (4 or 9 pack with special promo on) pay and you will get till spit.

    then go bakc thru buy a pack of the shine sheets and i bought another pack of the loo roll then hand over the moc from first shop when you pay

    once paid you will have got £1.50 off the loo rolls so only paid 50p for 4 rolls plus you will get 1 possiby 2 (seems to give out 2 mocs somethimes) for more shine sheets, just keep going round and round as many times as you dare

    on a side note i know have some packs of andrex with puppy points on, ayone here collect those ?

    CM

    Thanks for this I'm in need of stocking back up on loo roll and andrex is our preference:T:T
