    :D You're welcome, I womble to feed my family, the glitch was a bonus! But as I say, the real thanks goes to the brains who worked out what was actually happening, I just found a womble and said 'ooh look, this looks strange' :rotfl:

    I also like your sock monkey ;) Did you make it yourself? I used to lurk on that special occasions thread no end, I have done hampers now for the past 4 years.

    They are quite good if I say so myself. :)

    Budgie unfortunately can't sew, but I am a sock monkey fan. :o

    Re: wombling its a whole new world but there never seems many receipts about in my Asda's I think there are a couple of posters on here who beat me to them.

    Ahem you know who you are. :D

    Take Care

    Yes, it was me who found the womble, but my brain wasn't enough to work the glitch out, that was several other people.

    And let me make this very clear - I want NOTHING to do with any press. NOTHING.

    Sounds like a good time to say thank you can you find something for Morrissons next ;)

    The press never get anything right so best avoid

    Well I've failed, I've gone and used a pathetic smoker's excuse and lit up that first cigarette. Pathetic :mad:
    I went to my Grandad's house with my mum tonight, then my aunty turned up - mouthing off too my mum until my mum went out into the garden to get away from her. She then started on me...all I said politely was for her to not throw things away, and she just starts ranting and raving saying she can do what she likes, screaming at me, calling me a !!!!ing liar, saying things about my mum... now all that I can take...
    then she goes on to how she did everything for my grandad and we did nothing, and how my Grandad even said it himself that we were nothing and she did it all - I lost it, I told her she was disgusting and how dare she stoop so low to say such things.

    I could of slapped her, I was shaking so much, I walked out, went to the shop and bought some fags, it tasted gross, made me feel !!!!! but I still smoked it.
    Mum and I were meant to be going out for dinner after but just didn't feel like it.

    And on the way home I just totally broke down, all the way down the mway all I could see was a huge bright rainbow, practically all the way home, some may know the relevance of that to me and my Grandad. :A

    So I've failed, I'm once again a smoker. I could scream.
    Anyway, I'm sorry all I ever do is moan on here, feel free to ignore me!
    Hope you are all ok :)

    Hi Magic
    Don't beat yourself up about it. Giving up smoking is not easy especially with what's going on in your life at the moment.
    Why not say, "I will not smoke unless I am around that woman." By incorporating it into your stopping smoking plan you will not feel like you have failed if you do need to have one. Well done on keeping your self control by the way
  • My idiot of an OH got superglue on the kitchen work top before he went out.

    Anyone know a good glitchy cleaner I could use to get it off.

    And a bat to hit him with would be handy

    My DH seems to think that there are a lot of glue removers out there but he recommends a brand called 'Gorilla'. Apparently that's the best one he's come across.

    Avoid acetone. It may well ruin your work top! ;) Glue remover will be cheaper than a new work top.

    As for the bat,

    I havent managed to do any shops for a week with various things going on, try to keep up with the thread, but I messed up a shop today buying JF and forgot to buy the bloody ambrosia!! realised right as I was leaving the shop :mad:. I went back in to do another shop and this time remembered the ambrosia and did a successful one with 3 x JF and dishwasher cleaner and cereal.

    On a sains shop Sanex did not work for me... pears did though. I got 2 sanex zero roll ons, listed at £1, however my reciept says £2 each, didnt notice till now. The sanex didnt even come up on the comparison at all... not even as a N/A?

    my local is far too clean and tidy... found my first womble but only 7 items, so nothing to report there.

    Tiger... hope you are feeling better, 2 children is much harder than 1. Hope you get some support soonxx

    But I like the sock monkey.

    You can't just ditch a sock monkey because something else is more popular you know. ;)

    I shall report you to the sock monkey police. :eek:

    Hit thanks if you want the sock monkey to stay. :D

    Budgie xxx and no I haven't lost my marbles, quite yet. :rotfl:

    It seems the new sainsbob offers not glitching to the same degree, would have assumed the pear soap would've trigged the sanex or poo in sainsbobs, as all in the health and beauty section, but doesn't appear so........

    Do the offers end on the same date? i didn't think they did.
