    Morning all :)

    Both flavours of the 1p tic tacs were scanning at £1.25 in my local superstore this morning.

    Wine gums still a goer, along with the mini marshmallows,strawberry milkshakes and dorman’s jumbo cashews (which were out of date –March 2013!!).

    Are the cashews normal salted, I never tried the marshmallows or milkshakes to see what they were scanning at, they must have been about the only thing I didnt try.

    Good morning all! :wave: Didn't sleep at all last night. Ended up driving for 2 hours to clear my head - may have visited a Tesco and picked a box of £3 Thornton chocs, 6 packs of naan bread and a few more packs of nuts, though left 4 clip strips of them. Also noticed that Tic Tacs are back at full price. Came back home and went on a mad spree of applying for jobs. I'm determined never to go back to that job centre. Going to sleep now and do some baking later :)

    Hope you all have productive days :j

    Morning all. A morning of shopping planned for me (T and A first) then I'm meeting my neighbour to go to Primark/Primarni - it's been open 8 months and I've not yet been inside. I'm much more interested in kitchen roll and jelly beans these days :rotfl:
    Have a good day y'all :p

    Morning :D

    I am traumatised. A lady on the bus decided that she was having the seat next to me, and was practically sat on me :eek: :eek: She was fiddling around in her bag and wriggling around at the same time and was sitting on me more and more


    Day 2 fasting this week. Today WILL be better than Tuesday :)


    Hope you all have a fab day :D

    Oh no, we'd need to be together for that, and we definitely aren't :eek:

    We are just very good friends who share a house together. I'm most definitely not family.

    So sorry QoC:o:o:o Had always assumed that MG was an affectionate term for your OH.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Hi, we went to Playa Blanca, the suntropical resort. It was really good, really enjoyed it, the food was really nice, 16 pools, outside Jacuzzis. Would recommend it.

    Thanks, looks really lovely but fully booked for January! Will keep it in mind for future times.

    Dont be sorry, its a common misconception. We do most things together, like go on holiday, go down the pub and what not, its a conclusion that most people arrive at.


    Sometimes its just too complicated to explain it :o
