DFiL has been diagnosed now with lung cancer (tumour sounds huge 15x9cm). He should start some treatment in 2 weeks. It was expected but still a blow.

Hugs love & strength to you and your family xx

When I got mine, I too registered online but I just got a free pack of pods ah well

I don't know if a similar thing is made for a Tassimo, but I've got a Senseo and bought a little device from Amaz0n, less than £10, that you put your choice of ground coffee in then put it in the machine. It's way cheaper than buying the pods.

Hiya! My first time to the weekly thread here, but am a veteran (if still a novice!) flybaby!

I'm sure you get asked this often, so I apologise if this is always posted and replied to...but can we get a 'cheaper' version of the Flylady Purple Rags here in UK? What are they made of? Has anyone here bought the 'official' Flylady Purple Dusters, and found they're the best, or is there anything better?

There's SO many testimonials about how wonderful they are, and while I know nothing can beat actually getting off your butt and using elbow grease, I would like to get some better cloths than the old (seriously ancient!) rags that I'm currently using!

Thanks all!
