    200g bar £1.50 in A. Buy 3,6,9 and fillers. Compares AvT as 40p per bar in T
    photo_zps81585de1.jpg

    Please can I ask is this the only version that works?

    Just been to my store and they only had the other version - I found a shirt to ask and he said they kept nothing in the back stock and hadn't had any for a week :mad:
    No Terry's chocolate oranges either that were on someone else's list :(. And no Glamour magazine for £1 either :(
    And a very tidy car park, only one rec of the right length and every other bush rec was too small :mad:
    So I just got some tedious necessary stuff to use up my APGS and gift cards

    This is the only version that works.The other one comes back N/A.
    The Glamour mags are £2 if you live down south apparently, but £1 if you live in the midlands or north. Glamour mag is still a bargain at £2 as the products look like full size not samples.

    Sorry QOC more questions

    What is the base part?
    How many sweets did it take ?(including amount eaten whilst making it)
    Thank you.

    Don't apologise, I asked enough questions when I decided to try it :)

    I picked up a cheapy tumbler in morries, cut down a bamboo stick, put a hole in the ball (polystyrene from hobbycraft), I'd previously used some pink hairspray to colour the stick.

    I melted down 3 bars of sp chocolate to hold the stick in the pot and covered the ball with icing sugar.

    I did the sweetie sticking, putting it back in the fridge every now and again to harden off the icing.

    I filled the rest of the tumbler up with more sweets.

    Took about 7 standard size bags of haribos in the end

    It is possible to do it much more Mse than I did :o

    HTH :)

    Hey all

    Went to view a house this morning. And ...

    I really liked it so did OH. Is it terrible to persue the first one ???

    He was checking the technical stuff I was scoping the cupboards to see where I could stash my goodies !

    Will arrange second viewing with little miss in tow next week and hope its not sold. :)

    H bananababe - hope things are ok? Sorry not been in touch, as manic as I seem to be lately. I say that if the house feels right for you, then it doesn't matter if its the first or 20th house you've seen. Book that second viewing.:D

    :j:j this is fab, well done.
    I am so glad DS1 is past this in between stage.
    i can get hin small mens stuff now but last year was impossible to find stuff to fit neither a boy or a man.
    Sometimes primarni have extra small mens stuff though.

    I will be glad when he is past this stage aswell, he is 13 with an attitude and only want really expensive clothes, well he didnt get them, we went to primarni, he only managed 3 t shirts though in XS and no shorts that fitted, he is too big for the oldest in the childs range and the XS are too big round the legs as he is really tall but very thin.

    We managed to get some other bits from matalan. He needs another growth spurt pretty quick!!!!! It is such an awkward age.
