    Slept in this morning as DS3 woke me up coming in for a shower at 11.45 and getting ready to go out! You wouldn't have liked to hear what I said to him. Goodness knows where he was going. I know he had been working all day and would finish late but not that late.
    Good luck with the Times Comp everyone. Will probably do an odd one but I'm quite happy with my Tassimo.

    How inconsiderate to use your on-suite so late! :rotfl:

    I'm only using my pod machines for luxury moments now as was costing me an arm n a leg!

    Morning everyone :hello:

    Thanks for all the lovely pics :T:T:T

    Brighter here this morning too fire**fly :j
    Not very warm yet though. Really quite chilly :eek:

    Welcome SandA :)

    :eek: :o Sorry, noticed I had typed welcome SandM :o :eek: :rotfl:

    Have a lovely time at flamingoland wingo :j

    Sheils - of course you'll go to theme parks again. :j
    You'll be taking the GKs one day :D

    Have a lovely day all :)

    Morning all!

    That stew sounds just lovely, yummy.

    Hope flamingo land is great x I love theme parks, I've won on the krave one seven times so I'm stopping entering now although I have till the end of next year to use it. We don't know anyone who would want to come to AT with us so I will just pick two random queuing people to come in with us for free x good karma and all that

    Given up on real friends so I will stick to the inn now :D thanks for all of the kind words.

    Going to a 1940s themed day this weekend so it should be nice, sun is blazing away today and blue skies here.

    Was really lucky yesterday and win a £100 shopping voucher so I am thrilled about that! Don't tend to tell hubby as he will spend it for me and its me that puts all the effort in ;-) nah, he is pretty good really.

    Do all you folks make your own laundry glop like I do? Haven't bought commercial stuff for years; it's much better and about 5p a wash. Just wondered, don't need softener either and it's amazing for sensitive skin - no more itching.

    Thanks for the heads up about the coffee machine. Used to have a dolce gusto but gave it to mum as I like my coffee HOT and it was Luke warm.

    Morning all :)

    Grey and wet here today, I am really feeling the chill after Greece :(

    Off to DDs this afternoon for catch up with my kids and GKs, all chipping in for eats, son in law doing chicken and pulled beef, DS2 providing fajitas, guacamole etc and I have to provide a Greek Salad and sweet stuff, so all very organised and no stress. Really looking forward to it.

    Will have a couple of entries in Times comp before I go, thanks for posting SueM :)

    See you later, have a good Saturday

    enjoy your 40's day and spending thee voucher :beer:

    I tend to aim for 10p a wash commercial products (on offer) and use Morrisons value softener if needed.


    The pod machines drinks are ready to drink so why not scorching hot.
    I have a DG & Tass for luxury moments now as I froth-up milk in a french press/cafetiere most of the time, as more pocket friendly.

    Sounds lovely :)

    No I never could understand why the dolce coffee was Luke warm? Also you can't recycle the pods which bothered me a bit

    I think they say coffee is best to be made off the boil as it scorches it.


    Still haven't worked out how to answer the phone. Can't easily see how:eek:


    Thought the times was going to be a £50 machine. £800 wow:eek:
