    Good for those of us spending too much time in Sada :D
    Evening all.:)
    I seriously need to learn to drive.
    Today i piled the buggy up and got the bus back from T's carrying 4 x andrex , 8 x blocks of cheese, 4 x floras, 2 x anchors, a 4pt milk. 12 cans of cat food, 6 x pasta sauces, various fruit and veg and a 2 year old. I could barely lift the buggy on to the bus and the andrex hogged the aisle so nobody could get on or off without having to leap over everything. :o
    On the plus side my arms are getting rather toned :rotfl:
    I think i deserve a glass of plonk :D

    Hope all is well with everyone. x

    And rather long by the sound of it :eek: :rotfl:
    :huh: that went waaay over my head?

    Waaaay over mine too but didn't like to say :cool:
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.
  • OMG anyone else watching superscrimpers..the family who spend £200 on food and £30 on chocolate a week:eek: Plus takeaways..total of £20k per year just on food.

    she's now realised she spends over £2000 on chocolate

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I liked the sound of the choccy vodka :D

    Ninth Anniversary
    Good Evening Elite :D

    Well Budgie has been rockin and rollin ;) But before I go on, on a serious note I wanted to send much needed hugs (()) to Snap Ant and Fourp. It is so sad when you lose a pet, when our westie died it was just so awful and I swore I wouldn't have another dog. But as they say time is a healer and now I miss having a little chap around to listen to my chirpings. Both of you take care. xxx

    Well I have only been skimming I am afraid, so hugs (()) to all that need them.

    Well pull up a chair, are you comfy? Would you like me to turn the heating up a bit for you? I'd offer you a choccie but unfortunately I haven't partaken in the glitch. Still never mind have a Twinks hobnob.;)

    Well you know what store Budgie holds with 13 and what was yesterday? Yes correct it was the 13th. :)

    Anyway I digress..........Dad as you know is on the last week of his chemo/radiotherapy. He was asked to see the Dr yesterday after his treatment to be told that:

    "His tumor has significantly reduced" :j What brilliant news especially after all that he has been through. The treatment is indeed awful but I just wanted to say to: Morgy and Auntielala that although the treatment takes so much out of you it can work and its so worth it in the end. I hope both of you have positive results from what you are going through too. :A

    Dad still has a long way to travel but after they said they couldn't remove his bladder after scheduling the op twice, I really didn't think anything would help. So its always worth sticking with things and to everyone that is ill, just never lose the hope and belief that you can get though this and come out the other end. :A

    Big hugs (()) to everyone and always keep the faith. :)

    Budgie xxx


    Budgie (if I may call you Budgie :D)

    This is such positive news. So pleased for your family.
    Hope you are looking after yourself as well.:)
    Smile :) and hopefully the world will smile back

    Hi everyone... I know I'm just a silent lurker but I hope you don't mind me sharing a horrible experience in my desire to get a bargain and to do that tosco petrol promo.. I don't drive and the nearest extra to me is either trow#ridge or shepto# ma!!st. So I'm here at shepto# around 5pm by bus, asked Driver twice if there will be a last bus at 1815 and he said yes without a doubt. So now no bus they said_ I'm stranded as there's a carnival and Imy only options is e to wait for my son to finish work so he can get me. I want to cry! All I wanted is to save money huhuhu and now. I'm so cold and sadand hungry... My andrex and Robinson's staring t me huhuhu
    a
    Sorry rant over I just thought I share a not so good experienc and what I have to go thru to get my coupons ane just to get a bargain and something to smile as well for being stupid....

    Just read your post. I live in Wells and usually go to Shepton Mallet to shop. I nearly went tonight but hubby remembered the carnival so we went to Wells. Where are you waiting and what time is your son coming?

    There's a box of Crunchy Nut at the sorting office for me- trying to work out if it is worth the petrol going to collect it:D

    If you got the RM red card you can arrange to have it re-delivered!:D

    Condolences to Snap-ant and FourP. RIP AC.

    Great news about your dad Budgie. Hope he continues to make good progress.

    Nikkilala, thanks so much for posting about the Fairy. Usually I miss the boat with anything like this, but for once had the good fortune to be in the right place at the right time. Dear Mr T paid me £2 to carry away 9 of the large bottles :j The lady at CS went and retrieved the SEL and gave me DTD and said she couldn't understand it as she'd removed the SEL once already. I didn't tell her there was still another one there.

    Hello Budgie
    I'm snuggly warm right here so no need to up the temperature for me :D
    It's so good to hear that dad is geting on so well now. Such a worry though isn't it when a parent is under threat of something so awful. Give dad a big (((hug))) from me and have one yourself sweetheart. Dads are so precious to us girls, so keep your chin up and yes, keep the faith x
