Good morning everyone, still grey here.

I have tried to catch up, honestly I have, but have so much to do!

Lurking and working as others say. Doesn't help that t'internet is messing me about too!!



I love cast iron, have a Le Creuset griddle pan (got less than half price some time ago!). I also have an immense pan that I wonn some years ago and have never used because I struggle to lift it without anything in it, let alone full! I think it will get used soon thought because my preserving pan has seen better days and I will get my OH to lift it to the other worktop for me

As for the Pyroflam, I have had one of these for years and I love it, saves on washing up as you can use it on the hob as well as in the oven (assuming it is the same as it was 20 odd years ago!!!)

I had the same pans with the same problem. They stood in the kitchen looking decorative rather than functional for soo long but I couldn't bear to part with them. I now use stainless steel which are great but don't look half as good:(

Hi All
Just noticed that Tesco have the Finest jumbo king prawns on offer - half price £2.50, if anyone has managed to find the £2 off Finest food voucher, I was wondering if if would work, like it did at christmas, with the till seeing the full price of £5, if so, buy 2 bags for £3 using the voucher, sorry cannot try it out for all you lovely people as I have not found the vouchers, as yet!!

Been lurking a bit - been soo busy with real life stuff but been popping in when time allowed. Hope the poorly peeps & kiddiwinks are all on the mend:T:T and that life is being kind to you all.

Picked up a few bargains in tosco - desk fans reduced to £2 each (yes, I know I won't be needing them for a while lol) floor standing fans reduced to £5, some bath towels (only white cheapo stuff but for £1.30 each they're ok), hand towels (same cheapo) .50p and some nice duvet sets reduced to £5.

Hiya PL & TS :j:j It's like a reunion :rotfl:

Dear SD,
I don't post here very often as I don't feel like I have a lot to say. I am new and don't have a lot to contribute but I am around most of the time and have read all your posts. I didn't feel like I could read and not respond to this one. I really, really feel for you. What you are coping with from The Beast would have tipped me over the edge ages ago. You really must be a saint. You are doing the absolute best thing by finding him a loving home. As far as those animal rescue people are concerned please try to remember what it says in someone's signature (sorry forgotten who!) but I think it's a great mantra to hold on to, it's along the lines of 'remember opinions are not facts, listen to them but then move on'. They don't know you and your situation. You must do what is best for you and ultimately for The Beast. I think your son must be very proud of you and your strength. Even if he is too young now to see it, he definitely will look back when he is older and marvel at the way you are dealing with things. I hope you don't feel that I am intruding. I just wanted you to know that even though we don't know each other, I am thinking of you and actually you are an inspiration. Please don't stay away. I have seen that there are other people on here who care about you very much and your posts may just help other people to know that they are not alone in their problems and maybe help them to cope better with what they are going through. I know that sometimes other people's problems can help me to put mine in perspective a bit. Thank you for sharing with us and please know that you have certainly helped me. I will go back into (mostly) lurkdom now but hope to contribute more when I am able.
Love and hugs xxx

What a lovely insightful post Mummy - hope SD reads it.:T:T

I bought 2 packs of this at the weekend as it's the best buy for filter coffee ATM....:( Oh well, I'll just have to buy some more this week

Have you tied Ikea's filter coffee? It is £1.79 for the usual size pack of 225g and its really good. We always stock up when we go. I haven't seen filter coffee cheaper than that.
