    *Checked 'Book People' to see if books I want for F-I-L are back in stock as today is free p&p code one day only. No! :-(

    Right that's it for me, quite enough screen time, so time to get the needles clicking & watch next instalment of my Lovefilm dvd - still trying to get turnover up, to make most of our subscription.
    Cheers,

    Just being nosey, lol, but a couple of questions:

    What book are you looking for?
    What are you watching?

    Will post "lip brush" tomorrow (if I get the chance, otherwise will be Monday, is that ok?)

    Sadly grocery shop was £47:eek: where I live we only have w88trose and m8s really so it's always pricey. Bonus is I did shop as smart as I cold and can make plenty of meals out of what I bought so may not need to do a shop next weekend

    Can you not get one of the cheaper supermarkets to deliver to you?
  • Foxgloves try complaining at bookpeople that it's not in stock, they might be able to honour the free p&p when it is? x
