    This was a 'bush rather than a tree lol.
    I used straws for the stem and stuck them into a large piece of dry oasis which was rammed tight into the pot :D
    Left a gap at the bottom of the bush and put double sided tape on the inside edge of the pot and then sat the bush on the straws and tape.
    Not bad for a first attempt :p

    Was stunning if that was a first attempt, want to practice a little and send them to me for critical analysis?
    What was TM doing up at this time?? She must have peaed the bed too! :eek:

    Right, I'll have to be off. Just trying to go from memory (but memory fading at this time of night today) - trying to recall which one of the 150ml Vaseline anti-per. deos £1 in A is 85p (89p??) in Morries. Or maybe it's another one, not sold in A entirely. M have Granny Smith apples (approx. 700-800g) £1.39 (but that's more than £1! Figures!:D) and A has none within weight limit. Royal Bakery Doub Choc Gateau 300g or Strawberry(?) Gateau 300g, £1. But A Doub Choc Gateau, twice the size, 600g, £2 vs £2 S & T therefore £1.80, cheaper per g. Anyone want to put one of those on an Avs T shop perhaps, if already wanting some gateau, and see if it comes up with £1 for Morries? Probably won't, but we never know...:D

    Shop from earlier (6/6/13, about 8.30pm) coming up - there were no Jelly Poppers creations in this A, other versions were there though:( - even asked one of the staff to check the back of the store - either they are aware of this (but I doubt it) or, probably more likely, someone who reads this thread has also visited that A and taken as much as they could. Not to worry - I had 3 of them in the other store the day before. Comp vs T being posted soon - partly because I couldn't be bothered to post about some items I feel may be good vs T, so I bought some of them instead so the APG system can write it all for me (me having written all this gibberish:D instead).

    Well I intended too, I poured one, went for coke, and didnt have enough for the full glass, so had to top up with lemonade, not as nice, so went onto red wine.
    Going to get my coke topped up for tomorrow though ;)

    It's a never ending argument savvy :) have you found your lists? Are these paper lists that you make on your visits to Morries? I hope you find them :)

    Yes, I'm after one with blue ink on it for Monday and black ink, on the same pages, for the Wednesday results - not that I needed to say that. I'm forever misplacing things - keys, cashcards, anything - and slightly accident prone at times too, bumping into doors and the like. Not to worry - the paper list will either turn up... or it won't. (I think I've now posted about main things that were new on it that stood out. If I find it, or remember more, I'll let you all know.)
