    Afternoon peeps. :)
    Body shop have a 50% sale at the mo and there is a code floating around for another 40% off the sale price.
    I've just nabbed 3 body butters for £9 with free delivery. Should be £13 each so I'm well happy with that :j

    Hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine. It's hot hot hot here. 😀

    Thank you :)

    Pretty sure that the crumpets are on offer in co-op for 50p at the mo. I could be wrong though

    They're 65p

    Guess who forgot to get her receipt?? :mad:

    Doesn't matter. The fact is that you have lost weight :j

    Have you done a full week yet or are you part way through?

    you should try the turning mechanism before you hang slates to see if it works. if you got the slates overlapping the wrong way, could stop them turning
    if they ate closed, try over lapping them the other way.ie the one in front put behind

    Evening all

    Snap I don't know if it is still running but there was a very good 2 night deal for 2 in Weymouth on groupon a week or so ago. Could always phone hotel before buying groupon voucher to check can use it on dates you want. Think it was £89 for 2 for 2 nights.
    Where is the Pompei exhibition, sounds interesting?
    Reminds me I must get trains booked for london next friday as going to the Lowry exhibition. Do rsh post tickets or do you print them off? Sorry never booked with them before

    Manic packing for my trip to Bedford tomorrow. Easy enough to sort myself as always keep 3 nights tablets and washbag ready so just a few clothes. Its all the other stuff to remember. Managed to accumalate 52 shower gels for ds2 along with 10 deoderants ( would have been more but fussy) and have 12 packs of dw tablets for ds1. Then birthday gifts for dgd and fathers day present (nook).

    Hope there is room for me in the car as nearly wasn't at xmas:rotfl:

    Has been a glorious day here today but I was at my art class however put second load of washing out when I got home and fingers crossed it will be dry by 7pm.

    Second day of 5:2 will post on facebook in a mo.

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)

    1 day - tomorrow is next one.

    Got some Light Choice Chinese chicken noodle soup 43 calories, made some jelly this time as cheaper than the pots - 4 sachets for £1 - one sachet makes 4 jellies of 10 calories each. Added some fruit.

    I bought the Salter Scales from Argos sale £12.49 - brilliant as they are clear not white as I thought :o
