Popped out to Morrisons about 2.00 looking for woopsies. There were a lot of flowers and the assistant was waiting for the reduction gun. So I hung around and got 4 bunches down from £13.50 to 49p each and 2 bunches reduced from £6.50 to 39p each. So a bunch each for Mum and Mother in law, bunch for my sis, two for me, one for dd. I will try to post a pic. My kitchen looks like Interflora. Then on to Tesco and got a few ready meals but nothing special.
Also did a load of cleaning and now a few E-Bay parcels to pack. i sold some blu-rays for my son that he won in a quiz.



Hoorah 1st time posting a pic. Thanks HC. This is the flowers after Mum and MIL had theirs.

Rose your flowers are beautiful.:)

You did well to find so many vases:)

So proud of OH. He's taking part in the Strava cycling challenge for January. He's currently leading in his team and has completed 804 miles so far this month:T

He did 50 miles today around the back roads in the snow:)

Well done to your OH, that is brilliant:T:T:T

I still don't understand why it would be left in gear on a hill :o

Hi Floflo, When I started to drive many years ago my Dad always told me to leave the car in gear.
We used to live on a hill, that in bad weather it resembled a ski slope:eek:
If I was facing downhill (which was most often) to leave the car in reverse and if uphill to leave in 1st. The idea behind it was that IF the handbrake fails the gears should hold the car back and hopefully stop it moving.
Not sure if this is the real reason but its what I was told by my Dad and I still do it now, mostly out of habit.

HTH

I'm sure someone will be along to correct me if I am wrong.

Am I the only one who is heartily sick of this snow/ice?

My mum (82) and the little old lady in the close (97) haven't been able to get out of the house now for about 7 days now, at that age they lose muscle strength very quickly:(

Patty granted some of us like to stay under the radar for glitching etc but putting up with bad customer service isn't something we must do I feel, having said that is wimpy me gonna do anything about it when trouted unfairly and with no grounds to be questioned...probs not, but you have guts I know it Ms.Oh La La LaBelle and I think you should get an apology...Very similar situation with her too...but over a coupon, legit one too from their own mag...supervisor made her wait just as u were made to (trouty tit on the till asked her, is couponing a habit then, do you fill our tills with your coupons? :mad: cheeky git, he said this to her, I can't believe it, this is whilst the supervisor went to check a 60p coupon with the manager, yes 60p:eek: my sis did lean in and tell him I have 500 more of these and I'm coming through your till to use them all, yep I nearly wet meself laughin:rotfl:) she came back handed the coupon to the tit on the till and said 'well he says it's ok, I'm still unsure but put it through just this time'

My sister called out to the supervisor and said 'Sorry what was that'
she answered 'I didn't say anything'
sis - 'really?' I'm sure I heard something?'
supervisor - 'No, I really didn't'
sis- 'I could swear I heard you say, I'm so very sorry to keep you waiting. did you not say that? Oh that's right that's just the manners I have been brought up with, which were telling me you were supposed to say so'
supervisor - 'I'm sorry to have kept you waiting'
sis- you are? that's wonderful, are you also sorry for calling your manager wrong? I understand you have done me some kind of favour by putting a 60p coupon through for me which my sis(me) has cut out of your own magazine. My sis (me) has worked as a till supervisor at a supermarket before and never undermined her managers decision. I see you do, whilst making Sada's customers feel uncomfortable. I hope you understand whilst in this green uniform, you represent this company, I don't believe sada pay you for the privilege of being rude to customers, I am about to go report you, I'm heading to cs now, would you like to accompany me'
(she started walking and to my surprise the supervisor followed her...I am now left at the till, as my transaction is the next one this tit is putting through and I have 3 apg's to use, here I am thinking, ohh great! now hes gonna trouble me over apg's)
supervisor- walks to the cs desk with her, all the while apologising, when they get there, my sis calmly told her, I'll let it go this time, next time, I'll make a form a complaint and they walk their separate ways.)

Now I was all prepared for him to say no you can't use that kleenex coupon and not all your 3 apg's...tit called same supervisor over asking about coupons and apg's ...she simply murmered to him 'put them all through, just do it' I was :rotfl: whilst I grabbed my trolley and walked towards my sis who was cool as a cucumber, she knows full well how to deal with trouts:rotfl:


I was stood next to her as all this happened at the till, and was laughing so much quietly to myself...just kept a straight face...now had this been me in her place, no such thing would have gone down...I wouldn't have said anything probably:( but her, she just get's right in there:rotfl:

Worth a few bob then? Provided it's Made in England of course:)
Since Wedgewood/Royal Doulton took them over the production was switched to China & Indonesia in 2002 I think

Most of it is over 30 years old but just been looking on eBay and there doesnt seem much interest in it. A lot of the stuff has no bids. I watched a couple of pieces go for next to nothing:o
