No syrup or sugar, but do love the 'central heating for kids' version.
You will be pleased to know that I have tumble-dried twice today - that's three in total, and I am looking to put in another two by Sunday (maybe three):DFebruary13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)
MND - Let's go for 2020 'cos it's got a nice ring to it:D

We got a big tub of yummy yorkshire crisps so hid them in the suitcase when we went out so that they replaced with new ones when they made our room up. And, we did the same with the miniature bottles of Baileys and the sachet's of hot chocolate.
I figured since they were included in the price that we might as well maximise and make use!
This reminds me of an episode of 'Friends' where Ross takes EVERYTHING and his case bursts open at reception check-out.
You have just put me right in the mood of a coffee Baileys lula.February13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)

So, hypothetically........., if someone could have had 2 glasses last night, which wasn't midweek, but didn't, but had the other one tonight...... hypothetically would that count as a midweek tipple as no bottles were opened in the consumption?
Sitting here with a glass of wine but as technically it's not midweek till tomorrow I think that's ok :cool:.
No reason for asking obviously, just curious...........A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

GG - sorry mate but youve failed!! I used a similar technique with half bottle of technically going to waste... wine the other sunday BUT i got away with it, as sunday night is still technically weekend even though I had previously agreed a fri / sat night only rule.
NP - sorry I had some biscuits too, ooops - looks like we all (GG and NP and me) need to sit on the naughty step.
Squashed mars bars are gorgeous, however i personally prefer sweets found at the bottom of my bag, fluff and all, something particular special about finding a lost sweet. (which is also "free" due to its being prev lost in the weekday rule)Morgage till Nov 30 GOAL MFW Sept 2016Aug 11 - £100k Aug 2016.... It's GONE!!!!!
2014 GOAL HIT 5 Stone! 2016 GOAL to be a MF marathon runner.
