    Good Morning all,

    That's me showered, had breakfast, checked emails (only got claiming this win with 50mins to spare) and now relaxing with a cup of tea before I make a picnic to take with us. Could take us nearly 8 hours driving to get to Bluestone! Calling in on DHs bro en route but he is only an hour from destination.
    Hope everyone has a lucky week - should be able to pop in and see how things are going for you all.

    Hope Jasper is feeling better now wingo.

    Morning all :)

    Still trying to catch up with all the news in the Inn.

    I got a PM on facebook telling me I had won a Tonka Town Jailset on their FB page and to message my contact details, which I did. Just as well I got the PM as would have missed the original message on the page from 1st October :(
    Nice pressie for OH's wee GS in Jersey.

    My GD had a lovely birthday yesterday and I got the chance to catch up with both my sons and their families- my daughter and her girls were away at Sheffield -Street Dance comp to get a place in next years World Championships. Glad to say they got through so now have a year to perfect routines.

    Good day all round but have a whole days comps to catch up with now :eek:
    See you later.

    Good morning all, been raining through the night but think it might brighten up later on. Off to town soon for a cuppa etc. We have a 20% off fish voucher to use today at Iceland so will be spending that today before it runs out.

    Have a safe journey Sheils and a lovely time away.

    firefly - thanks for the lovely Buddha today and good luck cleaning all the bird boxes and hangers etc. I love it when everything is done in the garden for Winter before the bad weather sets in.

    Ellemm - well done on the win and glad you had a nice party yesterday.

    Wingo - how is Jasper today, has he recovered or do you need to take him to the vets?

    Have a nice day everyone.

    SYL
    BIG THANKS TO ALL WHO POST THE COMPETITIONS

    Hi, been into town, it has turned out to be a lovely sunny day. The problem was that the heaters on the bus were on and all the shops were really hot. We are never happy are we :)

    Went to Iceland to spend our 20% off fish voucher and got 2 packs of finny haddock, a pack of cod and and also some salmon so well pleased as we love fish.

    the hotel is open again at the weekend as my DD and his wife are coming for the weekend from Leeds so sorry folks door closed for the weekend :rotfl::rotfl:

    firefly - hope you have got this sunshine too so that you can be in the garden.

    Alfie - hows you Winter garden preparations coming along? Have you finished that kitchen of yours yet?

    iluvcats - not wins for us yet in October either and not much for September. Could do with a nice win before Christmas.

    Must get on

    I am not a lover of the heat in buildings either (shops etc.)

    :beer:We need to Pool our wins in the Inn, so us less fortunate ones get a look in! :eek::rotfl::beer:

    I had a Iceland fish voucher that expired before I thought about it, as been using Ocado. (as free delivery)

    Wired doorbell went & paw Meow jumped out of skin!


    (little sports bag win came from August)



    Compo's really are a stitch in time (saves nine), just three hot-uk pages to catch-up today TG (plus weeklies/few dailies/instants)
