    Just got back from Durham. not too bad there but 3 - 4 inches where we are.

    There were footprints from the door to our gate and then the outhouse. Inside was the soupmaker I had won.

    It even had the invoice inside with my name on it from Amazon so that was really good as it helps if anything goes wrong. It looks well good, going to read the instructions and have a go with it later. Also in the letterbox was the drawstring bag from Brothers Cider. Quite a nifty looking nylon bag, handy if you want to take a few sarnies to the park or something.


    hope the postie has been kind to everyone else in the Inn, still some things coming through from December wins for us all I expect too. Still waiting on the curry hamper (emailed them last week) and the Disney Brave Goodie bag.


    Waiting now for GD to come home from school, starving of course, wanting Grandad to cook chicken and chips I expect.

    Talk again later.

    PMS, don't know whether you saw my question a couple of days ago, are you watching Arrow on SKY? John Barrowman is in it.

  • Don't have sky sadly, I knew he was in it so hoping it'll be on another channel sometime!

    Firefly -bet you can't wait for your mini ipad to arrive. They seem very thorough but as long as it comes that's all that matters.

    The soup maker takes 21 minutes to make 1.6 litre so that's good. Will let you know when I have tried it. Its quite heavy but doesn't take up much more room that a kettle so that's good.

    PMS - try not to get despondent, we all have dry patches. Hope you get a win soon.
