    Hi Stinky, you are such a love :A

    Well Dad finally go back, after I was stressing thinking they had admitted him. But his bowel is ok and his bowel cancer consultant is happy for him to have his bladder removed now for his bladder cancer.

    Budgie just got so stressed as I thought they had found something in his bowel. :o

    Bless him, he is at the hospital again tomorrow for pre-op tests, but all being well his operation to remove his bladder is next Wednesday.

    Thank you again, you are a darling, you really are. :A

    Budgie xxx

    Thinking of you and your dear Dad Budgie - hope all goes well for his bladder op :D

    The Staff are much nicer?????? I dont think so!!

    I used to do all my shopping in Tesco or waitrose as the stores are always a pleasure to walk around and the staff a better quality than any Asda.

    There are certain Asdas that I hate going into as the staff are beyond a joke, ignorant, unhelpful and often even dirty as in hair uniform etc. One particular Asda is like walking into a supermarket in Beirut its that rough.

    As for cheaper this is not always the case I manage to do most of my shopping by picking items that are on promotion in tesco, sainsbury or waitrose so cheaper or even the same price as Asda this way I always get an APG and my shopping will always then be 10% cheaper than the best price anywhere.

    You get what you pay for and Asdas own brands (chosen by you) and smartprice items to be quite honest are vile. Their fruit and veg are the lowest grade cheapest sourced produce. Try buying a cucumber and keeping it for a week if you can keep it that long without it becoming a soggy mess with fur all over it. Then do the same at Tesco and I will guarantee the cucumber will be almost just as fresh as it was when you bought it, hard and easy to slice and flaour good aswell.

    I lived in the USA for 3 years and Walmarts produce over there is unbelievably bad you would have to see it to believe me. All of it is only fit to put on a compost heap.

    I dont know if you have seen the bananas in Asda most of the time their black and bruised and again within a couple of days are bad (rotten)

    Even some asda employees have also admitted their meat or butchery is not of high quality.

    So yes they may be cheaper but the quality is cheap or very poor.

    If you want fruit and veg or meat you cant beat Tesco, Waitrose, Sainsburys or your local green grocers or family butchers

    I disagree. The staff at the little Asda near me are friendly and helpful....mind you, I'm always friendly towards them and I think if you smile and are pleasant to others, they tend to treat you the same.;)

    I also disagree about Tesco fruit and veg being any better. I bought some organic apples there last week which were truly revolting...really soft and tasteless. I bought Asda smart price ones this week and they are lovely. :)
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.
