Hello peeps - back from my hols and just dragged myself away from the washing pile for a lunch break and to catch up on here - or rather not catch up (been awol since 19th).

Well 5;2ers have only put on 2lb despite no fast days for 2 weeks so I am please with that - found it impossible to finish a meal (in Dalyan Turkey) so never made it to pudding. Ordered faitias one night and it came with chips, rice and mashed potato - omg. So belly deffo shrinking...:D

DS started secondary school yesterday (plane, drive home, bath, bed, breakfast, new school -= no time to panic ). He had a great day - hoping that all fellow msers' kids due to move schools had a good start.

Anyhow love and hugs to all and belated Happy Birthdays for those I've missed ....................

Gosh Morgy, you've had a lot to contend with. Hope things are on the up for you.

For the fellow bakers, on the Renshaw baking FB page there is a survey you can fill in and they will send you a free pack of marzipan.

The post was originally made on 2nd September so just need to scroll down the page a little.

I previously filled in a survey about ready made icing and received my free pack of that quite quickly.

Thanks Logie (bear:D). Done. I'm going to make a cake for tigercubs birthday, we are doing a little birthday tea on sat for her. DS said he wants to make her a pink cake :T

For anyone wanting to use a £5 helping hand on a £40 wine spend, the til will take off the 342 and 25% discount BEFORE your £5. So best to top up with clothes that may be unsuitable..;)

Hmm need some professional help from Dtd pros lol

Is it best to buy 5 bottles of wine, getting Dtd making it free. (Half price SEL)

Or look like a normal customer and buy over 6 getting 25% off. However depending on the SA at CSD they might factor in the 25% off... So it won't be free :mad:

What to do? :think:

I went in really not expecting any in that store. Saw two full trays so i bought 1 just to check the price. went back and got 10. Then hid 4 beghind the quality street!;) Did feel a little paranoid. But when i went back an hour later, they had all gone.. apart from my secret stash that is.:j I think i have a good few now, I'll save some for you and Bubbs.

There is clearly no 'glitch'. If they have bothered to display the prices you pay they know exactly what they're doing.

Hey guess what CoT, I nearly got till bingo earlier. 2 pence to pay on a £24.15 shop. Could have kicked myself for not getting it down to a big fat zero:rotfl:.

That's what I was thinking.

However in the past one SA has factored it in. One hasn't...
