    Something along the lines of I bought 2 tins, noticed the points being added, read the offer and assumed it applied to just the gels as well ( as it obviously added the points on) so added another 8 tins.....assumed this was all ok as my confirmation email confirmed the points total......whilst sounding a bit dim, of course:D

    well still nothing from Bzz so all I can do is log in each day and fb and tweet my score which is still stuck at 7.3, about all I can do as my 'demographics" are all wrong ;)

    Still awaiting 4 parcels at least but I got the chicken rub this morning, forgotten about this one Also in the box a bead bracelet which I am going to put in the Christmas shoe box collection

    on the plus side I figured out out to print off my Alpen bars MOCs, so I have a little stash of moc to use up.

    On the minus side I ventured into town this morning, very cold and blustery but I parked on the tosco underground and walked across this saving 70p and I did the required 20 minute healthy walk. I did force myself into Boots, pound shop, Dunlem Mill and various others looking for bargains but not really bothered. I don't think I am teetering on the edge of being depressed, just totally lost my oomph and reAlly I am just happy enough pottering around the house, making cake, keeping house and messing around on fb, twitter and doing competitions

    When the next glitch breaks cover I will be ready but for now I am in semi hibernation :D

    Purdie can't you take your Purdy to a dog grooming place i am sure they do anal glands. The one my Chloe went for hair ;) fur cut used to do hers. :)

    I'm not bothered about doing it Tweets and I think she'll get her knickers in a twist there just as much as at the vets to be honest.:( It's whether it's an infection or something worse thats making me think we'll end up at the vets.

    I've cooked her some fresh dabs i bought in Morries this afternoon so Hubby is going to feed her bits of fish from the front whilst I do the deed from behind if all goes according to plan!!!

    Ive not caught up from this afternoon, so hope there has been some better news about Alfie xxx

    Edit......Just seen Nikkis post. Poor Alfie, but lets hope it's not malignant and has been contained in the spleen, will be thinking of him next Tuesday xxxx
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.

    We've still got a Barratts in Camberley, albeit in a smaller shop now. None of those shoes in there that I've seen though :(

    Also printed off my TPP which was as expected.
    i printed off 3 Velvet tissue 50 p MOCS from an old email link dating back to last summer so I got 3 boxes in tosco for £1.99 each, Sada price is £1 so a nice nearly £3 TPP :D

    Very neat shop actually - 2 welch magazines, 2 of the 75p welch juice on introductory price, 3 velvets, various cheap fillers of things we actually needed - jam, pancakes, crumpets, water. Total was just over £10. I had some small value TPPs and 2 welch mocs. Finally total was just over £4 :T

    I have been looking for the bagels but no joy- wher did you find that stuff? TIA

    I've got the fruit and fibre mocs as well - is this something you can do everyday?

    Does anyone know what shops sell the various versions? I am hoping to spend less than 50 p on each item :D

    Morning
    Bright and sunny here. Out the front of my house there is a goose loose:D It's running up and down the street honking and hissing at people. In my back garden there appears to be a neighbourhood cat meeting. There are 4 of them on my trampoline.
    .

    This so made my giggle but real life is usually far madder than any soap series :T
