    my OH broke the second last of our BIG wine glasses at the weekend :( ( he wasn't sewing an umbrella)

    It's hard to find big glasses cheap. The ones that hold half a bottle. If anyone's sees any cheap, give me a shout.

    Julie.....just leave your brolly on the bus it's much easier :o:rotfl:

    I used to always get nice large ones from House of Fraser in the jan sales. TK max is also worth a look.

    Hi artha, I dropped by mr t tonight around 6 and most the meat was getting emptied by 2 couples. 1 guy look familiar but couldn't say for def. so that's where the meat went. There was no butter so dropped in the one close to work and it hadn't been touched so stocked up. Hope the meet went well and the locals isn't scare your guests. See you soon ( I need more fruit) oh by the way the tesco south of the bank had loads and I mean loads of cheap fish! If your ever passing worth a look at whoopsie time x

    Hi barbara, meet went well and we were half expecting you to turn up. WEtren't many locals about and the ones that were there were tame so David. and TM got away lightly.

    Wondered where all the meat had gone tonight as there was loads when David and I were there after lunch. Must have tempted someone at only 50% oh well there's always another night.

    Thanks for the info on SB..might have to have a change sometime:rotfl:

    Well, whilst spread out on my bed (oo er) I was sewing the broken spoke of my special umbrella. Whilst testing it, it knocked over a glass of wine and it smashed on the bedroom floor. Also upsetting is I have to get the Hoover out :(
