    Once again I read through the posts to catch up and this thread never fails to amaze me it makes me smile, laugh, cry sometimes all at once, and I realize why I like to come on here the support for each other is brill when we need it, useful advice when we find it tough to see the wood for the trees.

    FV not much I can add to what has already been said by others previously which were fantastic posts BTW.:ABut would like to offer you a ((((BIG HUGG)))) a saying my mum used to say it is not what's on the outside but what is in the inside that is important, your post just made me think of this :A:A:A I too am normally found in trainers jeans & no make up etc :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Must say it was fun reading what people's guesses were:D:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    :hello::hello::hello: Thrifty Sister lovely to see your posts on here :Agood to know we have another spy in our mists:D:p especially with FFF still poorly:( hope she gets well soon:A

    IS it really made the difference having someone to share the journey with you were great company:A What we failed to mention we got so busy in chatter I got really panicked and thought we missed our stop to get to St Pancrass :eek: and would have missed our connecting train to Manchester:o:o:o but we were OK:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
  • funny thing DD said today

    thought i'd share

    now shes a skinny thing, been hard getting trousers , so some are abit baggy. a while ago i made a passing comment on how she needed a pair of braces to hold her trousers up

    well as we were about to walk into T's this morning
    she walks along giving her trousers a tug up
    and pipes up

    think i need some dentures for my trousers:rotfl:

    I love when kids say things like this :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Don't you worry there FV, we all wear jeans/trousers & T/shirts;) tbh, I don't have our meet up pictures:o:o:o just having fun with the drivellers:rotfl:
    I nicked the photos from googles:D thought I find a lovely posh ones to post because we are all grubby looking:rotfl:

    We were like after school children, making so much noise:D and we definitely chased their customers away I guess:A - not me, I think AH & FT were the loudest of us all, the rest of us were tame comparing to them 2:rotfl::rotfl:


    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: think it has something to do with our Celtic roots FT:D:D:D;)
  • Forgot to mention on Sunday went to M's used 4 x £5 off £40 A's coupon getting the boots gift card for the Advantage points evening:j:beer: thanks to Blue and her detective work:kisses::kisses::kisses::kisses: just in time before the vouchers ran out also.

    Hi :)

    I'm beginning to think I've died and gone to heaven where money doesn't exist and everything you want is just given to you!
    What with the MEGA Sada glitch and then the choccies. Oodles of free beans, reloaded and weight watcher meals.
    Now I'm doing the Amex small shops and just walking into all sorts of strange little stores and walking out with freebies of every type.
    On Sunday I got my DD1 an Ipod Touch from Argos which I paid for completely with my L2S vouchers from Mission Control plus Nectar points - and they gave me £10 to spend another time :rotfl:
    And today I got two Xmas pressies at half price from Amazon Black Friday and paid with my Spuds vouchers!! Its really surreal! Long may it continue :T
    Shame I can't get cheap petrol - the only supermarket petrol station anywhere near me is Sada :o

    Edit: just remembered my stash of Special K bars and Honey clusters!
