    Reminds me of the hilarious scene in "Porky's", where the gym mistress is trying to persuade the Head to have an "identity parade" to find a male flasher, and the three male teachers in the background are nearly eating their own hands trying not to laugh. :D It was on tv recently and I'd forgotten how funny it was! :rotfl:

    And whilst I think on....


    A very happy 50th birthday to squilliondollarbaby!!!!!!

    Funny how we worry/stress over such stupid things when we are about to bury the most precious thing we've ever had on earth.

    When my mother passed away and it was her funeral, I too, was worrying about my shoes, my top, etc. I worried that I had on too much make up. But at the moment when I saw her coffin. I suddenly realised that nothing was important. I had to just be there. Do the right thing and make her proud. I was the most grown up, i've ever been.

    I know she'd have been proud of me, and I hold on to that. I hope you do too, Tiny.

    Life is all going to end and all the sufferings she had, and all the worries are all gone. However, we will never be able to hold these precious people in our arms again. That's the part that hurts. I so wish I could hold my mother's hand - just once more. It often hits me. But as time passes, you will smile, more than you will cry. But you will never forget.
    My thoughts are with you at the moment. The end of life of a dear loved one, is so sad for those who are left behind.

    You put that very beautifully, WQ. Thank you.
    Hope is not a strategy.

    :grouphug: I think it's time for a massive group hug what with all the love and caring going around. TS, I am sure you will look absolutely wonderful and you know we are all here to chat to if you want to get anything off your chest. Same applies for anyone else going through pain and misery at the moment. And let us spare a thought for all the folk all over the world who are going through hardships and bad times. :grouphug:

    Thanks Savvy, no not harsh at all, thanks for replying. It was a risk but I thought I'd give it a try as we are completely out of crisps and have been for a couple of weeks. The children do like a packet of crisps in their lunch boxes but my target price is 10p per pack (or less of course) and I haven't managed to find anything to achieve that price for a while so they are going without!
    Never mind, I'm sure that Tosco or someone else will do a good offer before the vouchers expire (7th July) so will hang on to the MOCs for the time being. x

    Thank you. I've risked the bath sponges tonight... and probably lost! (Moral is - never buy anything whatsoever unless you've on checked MSM.co.uk before your shop.) I should have been wisened up to those 50p items by now!:o:(

    Everyone, I've now finished my post no 6573 - do you like that?:)
