    Morning all :hello:


    Are you stocked up with little baby puds UP? Offer on at T's until 9/12 so should work out at 30p for 12, A v T, for a few more days yet. Granddaughter will be on them before you know it. :)

    Edit - just reading back, it's rhosynbach who has a new Granddaughter - Congratulations rhosynbach.

    There really is something special about grandchildren - different altogether from having your own children IYKWIM. :rotfl:

    Chris, will this "theory" of yours work well with any other baby foods do you know?

    My DD needs foods (dinners) for 10+ months and wondered if i could maybe do a shop similar to the little tins but with jars?

    Bet this is store specific but I wish it wasn't. My blood is 50% Red Bull.

    you really ought to think about your caffeine intake, epecially if it is making you feel nervous/anxious etc

    What are the negative effects of caffeine?
    A dose of caffeine in a
    morning cup of tea might help us work, but many of the positive effects of the
    drug become negative ones when the amount of caffeine consumed is increased.
    Like many drugs, caffeine can cause physical dependence.

    Too much caffeine is associated with reduced coordination, insomnia,
    headaches, nervousness and dizziness. Cutting caffeine out completely (going
    'cold turkey') can cause withdrawal symptoms, such as headache, fatigue and
    muscle pain.


    Ingesting excessive amounts can also put a strain on the heart and is linked
    with increased blood pressure and raised blood cholesterol

    Sad news at the Nestle chocolate factory today, a man was seriously injured when a pallet of white chocolate fell more than 50 feet and crushed him underneath, he tried in vain to attract attention but every time he shouted "the milky bars are on me" Everyone just cheered!!:cool:

    FREE BREAD IN ASDA :)

    Bought 2 loaves of Kingmill 50:50 Medium today (£1.35 each), and the whole shelf was flashed 2 for £2. However, no discount was taken off at the till.

    So got the 70p refunded as the CS desk, along with a £2 giftcard for the overcharge.

    So, FREE BREAD !

    Had a very odd morning so far. Phone call from my manager to say that she was sat outside my old house (I moved 5 years ago!) asking directions to where I am now. Thought she was just popping in but apparently she'd arrived for a long term absence meeting (guess the letter went to my old house too :cool:)
    I already had a meeting arranged with the Home Start manager so she's coming back on Tuesday. Mentioned that I hoped to be fit for work at the end of my next sick note so she's starting the ball rolling for my return :eek:
    Home Start lady came and we decided I don't really need my volunteer any more. Will miss her weekly visits :( She has been brilliant :A
    Letter arrived from the Drs saying I need to make an appointment to discuss my blood results - they only do that when they are abnormal so that'll be confirming my suspicions then :(
    Did get my Morrisons voucher though :)

    Good morning everyone :wave:

    Congrats to Rhosynbach & baby Annabel's safe arrival into the world :A

    Also congrats to everyone's little wins :)

    I got my morries voucher and a £15 cheque for the shopper discount rewards thing which I was a bit dubious about. I've cancelled the membership for it so will have to keep an eye on my bank account to see if they still try taking money.
    Omg, I've just seen the new advert for Aldi champagne. Watch it, it's brilliant :D:rotfl:

    I like the "I like it" mouse one :D The undies one is a bit similar to the Boddington's one where Melanie Sykes asks Tarquin if he's got his "trollies on the right way". Aldi have been superior with all of their ads this year.
