    Afternoon luvlies

    Happy Birthday to Logie and Auu1, hope you both have a lovely day :)

    Many thanks to RM for the BS post last night, thanks too to Zippy - I copied your shop so family will be happy at Christmas :D

    Just popped into my ex-Netto and I think their final clearance on garden / camping stuff started today. Their 4 person tents were £10, the 15m hose with reel was £3.50 and their picnic plates / cutlery sets / salad servers were all 25p each. They also had these pop up BBQs with little legs for £2 - still showing full price of £8 on line

    Artha and David dot, if you've run out of bin liners they had the rolls of really thick garden sacks knocked down to 50p from £2.50.

    Off to tidy the loft now, not a job I like doing :(
    :rotfl::rotfl: not for a long time yet :D. But may pop in later just to check ;)
