Good Morning
:j The suns disappeared its lovely with a cool breeze :T
All this talk about darts made me reminisce so here is a little fact about tweets from many moons ago.
I played darts , dominoes and crib for the local pub this particular night I was on last in the darts match score was 3-3 and national male champion was my opponent and guess who beat him:T His mates didn't half take the mickey a young lass beating him
When I was a teenager I went with my boyfriend to a darts match that he was playing in. One member of the team couldn't make it at the last minute so I was roped in :eek: Don't think I'd ever thrown more than a couple of darts in my life. Anyway I was on last and I had to throw double 16 for the team to win and somehow I got it in the first throw :eek:. Total fluke but boy was I popular! :rotfl::rotfl:0 -

DD a bit happier this morning as her auntie dug out an old Blackberry Curve for her to use. Nowhere near as nice as her white Blackberry Bold but at least she's not still incommunicado.
Will have to think about insurance for the future though0 -
I have my result from the Sains. BM website. I don't normally post BM results as (a) I don't do as many of them, as needing to spend £20; and (b) they are a day late.
However, I've looked on t.com in the last half hour and all the items I bought are still there at the pricing they were yesterday, so it should still be okay:
Compared with T:
1 Tracker Crunchy Roast Nut 6 Pack 156G £2.00 [Strike]£1.89[/Strike] £1.89 Multibuy
1 Trebor Softmints Spearmint 4 Pack £1.56 £1.00
1 M&Ms Peanut Pouch 315G £2.99 £1.50
1 Askeys Round Ice Cream Cones/Cornets X21 £1.10 £1.00
1 Birds Eye 18 Breaded Nuggets 355G £3.19 £1.50
2 Sensodyne Gentle Whiten Toothpaste 100Ml £8.00 [Strike]£8.00[/Strike] £5.00 Multibuy
1 Rustlers Microwave Quarter Pounder 190G £2.00 £1.00
1 Tracker Choc Chip 6 Pack 156G £2.00 [Strike] £1.89[/Strike] £0.00 Multibuy
3 Bag Re-Use 20/05/09- Upc[] Non-comparable Non-comparable

Total spend on comparable branded goods: £22.84 £12.89

So I lost 15p on the M&M Peanut Pouch:(, and should have used a different item or items there to make up the bill and BM amount, and then put the M&Ms on my next Avs T shop:mad:. However, I can't find the M&M large pouch on msm at all, so it seems it would not be included in the APG (and it's not part of any multibuy so you can stop :j). It's on a.com but not msm - and :rotfl:I've put my msm companion on and kept it on the product page on a.com for the M&M pouch in the hope (fornlorn?) that it might pick it up. We can try...:)0 -
