    :) One hairy cat safely home!

    As people said, he wandered in nonchalantly without a care in the world a few minutes ago, after I spent the night lying on the living room floor (comfier than my mother's sofa!) trying in vain to sleep, with zero success. In he walked, had some food then straight back to the door to try to get out - aye right...

    Now to work out how I'll manage to go into work in a few hours with as good as zero sleep. I don't care, all worth it to have him safely home. Thanks ever so much to those who sent messages, was going sane alone here. It's hard to believe that they are definitely fine until you actually have them safely home.

    Maybe I should get in a quick shop at the 24 hours sada seeing as how I'm awake and missed out last night seeing I was waiting for him lol
    phew another wanderer returns :) cheeky monkey

    Sa took me to CS where she said they refused accepting plus £15 ones, and I told her I had a reference number, she said Pasda HO were closed so couldn't check....long queue coming up now! eventually she said she'll check the details and put itthrough. She refused to put the remainder on a gift card so had to grab the closest thing which was coke, luckily this was cheaper in W's!:D

    I forgot to use the voucher for the Bear Yoyo's!!!:(

    Funnily enough, the Domestos did compare in this shop!:o Anyone know why this didn't compare in the shop before?


    3rd shop: Had a £12 APG to use. She refused saying I had to wait 24 hours for an APG and saying that it had not been 24 hours, that she couldn't check the details online!

    So paid for this shop too!:(

    Just back from SW weigh-in and got my 4 stone award and reached my target (for now anyway, may lose another half stone in a few months)

    I would never push anyone to lose weight if they don't want to, but the SW diet is amazing and I'm so glad I finally found something that works without having to be hungry. :D
    HUGE congratulations! That is quite an accomplishment! Love reading that sort of post :j

    What breadmaker do you have, I've had 3 myself and via friends I have tried 11 different machines and the bread is always "spongy" I was a baker for 14 years and love the kneading/proving/knocking back process of bread making :)
    Miss L, don't suppose you have a good bagel recipe to pass on? :o Love to bake and never managed to do successful bagels.

    Hope the rain stays away! Made it halfway through the week- weekend is a comin'! :T
