    So out of the blue, but saw a man wombling receipts at slough tesco this afternoon. Made me giggle inside.

    Sorry been away from you guys a while, just got back from Sydney. Don't want to take away the good vibe here at the moment. Was by my dads side In hospital for 4 weeks battling brain tumor. He lost his battle. It's actually harder to write than to say it out loud. It was the hardest thing in my life watching him detioriate in front of our eyes. His memory was all of the place. Still feels like those 4 weeks it wasn't my dad, an my dad Is still sitting in his flat watching his turkish tv.

    He was a only 51. Although we fought allot I miss him terribly. Thank god, for his funeral prayer there was 300 plus family and friends there. I Had to return back to London and he was in coma for a few days before he passed away peacefully with mum by his side. Although they have been dovorced for 14 years, he loved her the most out of everyone and I'm so happy she was there at that time.

    It's been just over a week and miss him terribly, feel like calling him at home and leaving a message on the answering machine asking him how he is and what he has been up to day.

    So sorry was only going to mention about the wombler and got carried away. I am so grateful we had those 4 weeks with him and I know people die without no warning and instantly. I am forever grateful.

    So sorry to hear your sad news, at least your dad is now at peace x

    So sorry to hear this Cici :( My Dad also died of a brain tumour in his early 50s so know how difficult it is to watch. Sending you lots of love and hugs xxx

    I've spend the evening catching up, printing out MOCs and creating lists on MySuperList. Don't know if I will have time to get to ASDA because I don't have a local, but will try Tesco and look for 1p Jacobs and G&B! If I get to ASDA, I thought I'd try the Nivea as a lot of Nivea is half price in Tesco and Sainsbury's so potentially v good for APG. I've also got the Lypsyl cold sore gel on a AvT shopping list. Has anyone else tried either of these please?
