Yeah you've now reminded me - in my last lonnnnggg post, about Sains, Morries and Schweppes lemonade cans:
Incredibly, unbelievably, I missed out something I was going to mention in there! Namely that I was thinking - this was around 3.20 / 3.30 this afternoon - of going to A for a 3 for £5 combo. Then I thought I'd only end up with yet more shampoo and similar on top of what I already have - and, in any event, I would have to 'pay' something for that shop (even if only about a couple of quid:D:rotfl:) as the APG back wouldn't be as big as the one I'd be using against the shop. Perhaps go down from £8 to £6.
In the end, it was half past three, I'd be rushing around in the final ten minutes of opening, trying to complete a full 8+ item shop, even if I got to A straight away. I thought - well, why end with a £6 off your shopping in the week, rather than keeping the £8 voucher and having that amount of the shopping in the week? Who knows - something else may come along - perhaps it's more useful to go against other general grocery shopping I need (such as meat, fish, fruit, ... ... Cadbury's fab. fingers, Milk Trays etc.:D:rotfl::rotfl:) a bit later. So I missed off the 3 for £5 today.
The offer on A's website says it began in 2012. At going on for a year or more, I can't see it suddenly being removed, from everything!?!!?? The "3 for £5" I suspect will still be there but may just include different items (which may be a good thing in a way!). Or they may be clearing those stores away and ending the offer. (I thought someone saw a TV ad though that some of the shampoos on the offer till into mid-October.)
I hope it's not ending, for obvious reasons, although I'm sure somewhere else will be our attention next if it does!:D0 -

As for sport, "at school I was always picked last for the sports team". Never understood why.
In adulthood, diagnosed with AS - later on, I read [red] (cover to cover as usual:D) Tony Attwood's "Complete Guide..." (I'm never sure how any book could be a "complete" guide to anything but to be fair his is fairly comprehensive). And there is the answer. I have a bouncy gait at times. I'm also a bit clumsy and, while I wouldn't say I have motor difficulties, apparently there is something there - it's the reason why my feet never kick a ball properly and I suspect I am a little out of sync. Explains why I was never good at sport, although I did do swimming quite well.
Of course you would already know it could not be sport (in the sense of football, cricket, tennis, badminton, rounders etc). As 'ignorance of AS is never any excuse', you're all taken to know all about AS already and therefore know that sport isn't my thing. That said, I did really enjoy squash in my youth - such an energetic sport and I really liked that about it. I really give things my all sometimes (whilst others stand around not seeming to get into them - you all just don't know how to party:D).
My DS2 has this 'bouncy gait' too savvy although his is quite pronounced. I believe it to be down to a lack of sensory feedback rather than a motor problem. I also believe that's why he gets so much from the amount of vigorous trampolining he does. I think he gets the sensory feedback from that that he doesn't get from normal movement.
Ive developed quite a geeky fascination with sensory issues over the years through trying to understand/help DS2.0 -

Maybe the system is in meltdown but I've just had a look and it's showing some people have registered but no vouchers. But then again, perhaps you actually have to spend something to get a referral code.....something us lot are not particularly good at.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
