Flying ants are rife here today! I hope there is a huge thunderstorm heading for London but without epic rain as our roof tiles started falling off today. Hello everyone!'I solemnly swear that I am up to no good'0

Ok, I couldn't resist doing the maths. Something has to keep my brain alive.

Kelloggs fruit n fibre
T - £2.69 3 for 2
S - £1.34
Buy 9
Before 3 for 2 kicked in price was £24.21 so 4 fuel vouchers
Pay £16.14 v £12.06
TPP = £4.08
Kelloggs Just right
T - £3.14
S - £1.49
Buy 4
Get 2 fuel vouchers
Pay £12.56 v £5.96
TPP = £6.60
Total spend £28.70 and TPP of max £10 so fillers need to be about same price. Or buy each type of cereal separately, (don’t do some and some or you won’t get 4 vouchers with the fruit n fibre.)
If my theory works, you get 13 boxes of cereal for under £19, and 30p off per litre of fuel.
I have only been back online a few hours and the maths is already giving me a headache.
Thanks Elsie.

I just found a picture on the Larmer Tree Festival Facebook page by someone of the lightening that I was under last night. :eek: (sorry have no idea how to show pic on here
)
If I had seen how many forks were coming down to the ground while we were in the Comedy Club tent I would have been pretty scared, no wonder they decided to evacuate. :eek:
That was the Salisbury area about midnight last night.0
