    Thanks Freespirit66. At least hot choc has quite a long date on it so i can keep my eyes open in a few months time and start stocking up then. Your brownies look yummy btw x

    Suz24 for presents I'd use galaxy / Cadbury if selling would use cheaper option to max profit x
  • Trendyjenny-Ooh yes you reminded me about the flask, bought a new one a few months ago. (reduced of course. ;)) Dont feel bad, Im sure you can rearrange for another time when the weathers better and your sister feels better. xx


    freespirit66-Definitely hot chocolate, that kept us going last time! :rotfl:The brownies look divine!

    Suz24-Id use a nice hot chocolate like galaxy but get it on offer. The tesco value one is like dishwater lol!

  • Not had a chance to catch up, been away somewhere much warmer than here (well, that wouldn't be too difficult!), so don't know if anyone has mentioned or seen that the 99p store has packs of 100 or so adhesive gift labels, various sizes, but seem to be reasonable quality.

    Welcome back gettingtherequickly have you been on your hols? Good to see you back.

    Feisty how are you feeling? You've sounded a little low this week :( I was almost dribbling looking at freespirits baking but not really a slimming world friendly recipe! Hope you find time to concoct a treat on Sunday :) How is OH doing?

    Freespirit those brownies look amazing, big hugs for your DD xxx

    suz welcome I agree with the lovelies and prefer to use galaxy/Cadbury hot chocolate. They do have a long date and are the sort of thing that B&M HB etc have cheaper so keep your eyes open :) You've definitely come to the right place and we are glad to have you. Hope you like to chat :)

    Linky missing you :( hope everybody is ok and like others have said its a connection fault xxx

    I haven't been on here for ages so apologies fir not keeping up to date. I've been doing some bargain hunting in the dotcomgiftshop sale and amongst other things, there are rambling rose shopping bags for £1 so I've bought a load and will dress them up for Christmas pressie bags with raffia ribbons, small baubles etc on the handles then people can use them as shopping bags. Hopefully the vintage floral theme will still be 'in' at Christmas. No wasted expensive wrapping and an extra little gift for folks. Just thought I'd share :)
