Heres hoping everything goes as we are all wishingAfternoon all :wave:
Not really been around for a few days. Couldn't keep up as had some lovely family time for the bank holiday
My friends baby shower on Saturday was good fun and the very MSE hamper I made seemed to go down well. I'd have been happy to receive it
Sunday we took the boys to SkegVegas
Lovely day, but sea breeze meant I didn't notice my head getting burnt 
Guess it's not really been exposed before. Will be investing in a sun hat and being more careful in future.
Yesterday I had a meltdown in the morning after I ripped a hole in the only pair of jeans I had that fit Went shopping with DSis and got some linen trousers in Ts. Managed to pick up a few of the new mags too which cheered me up a bit :T
We had a BBQ in the afternoon and then finally had an evening out at the pub with DH :eek: First time since baby H has been born. Was lovely to catch up with everyone and no headache this morning
Have finally just had the phonecall I've been waiting for since the 17th :eek: Have got an appt for PET CT scan next Monday to see if i'm fixed. Will factor in a little shopping trip whilst we have to stay away from home Specialist nurse will then phone me with the results next Wednesday afternoon Hope some of you will be around to :j:j or :eek::eek: with me as I'll be home alone with the little ones. Glad to finally have a date to aim for. Have got everything crossed.
Hope you're all finding the 1p chocs. I'm sitting this one out as have made decision that I need to watch what I'm eating more closely now. Need to regain a little self confidence.
Hugs to tinyshoes, HopePray, AngelsMadv and the Lalas
Hope your first day back at work was ok FLoFlo When The Fun Stops Stop0 -
If any one interested Fairy original w/u liq 433 mils b/c 0761 scanning £1.25 not 32p Tescos purley
It seems to be T Exp only that have reduced them (on the SEL) as seem to be clearing this size out. I have seen SELs in 3 T Exp (no WUL though :mad:) and normal SELs in T Extras.

Afternoon All,
Me Too :j
Was going to A's to get another 6 later, now 7, but MSM now comparing at £2.78 Tesco so will have to do an A v S or an A v M if their offer is still on? Anyone know ?
Think you'll have to buy Av S at £1.40 until 21/5To do is to be. Rousseau

Yes I noticed their offer continuing. I think M's is on until later this week at £1.29 but not 100% sure.
Alternatively I could do a T v S using a £10PP get yet more free Toms and make use of a two WYS, T £4off£30 and a S £4off£20 and use the 7x£1 off Dr O's and get another £10PP back......SA permitting

Do you have the phone number please?
I got sent a free code, but tells me it has already been used.
Found a phone number on website, but wasn't for right dept.
I used the one on the website 03305 001 305. Is that the one you used? I got straight through to a nice lady who dealt with it straight away 0
Hope some of you will be around to :j:j or :eek::eek: with me as I'll be home alone with the little ones. Glad to finally have a date to aim for. Have got everything crossed.
