BREAKING NEWS ... BREAKING NEWS ... BREAKING NEWS

Reports are just coming in of a major disaster at Toilet Roll Towers. Witnesses report that some time between 7pm and 11pm the Tower began to shake, and then suddenly collapsed, scattering scatalogical debris over a wide area. Miraculously, no one was injured. A spokesman for the construction company, JB Builders, said: "We have no idea what caused the Tower to collapse. Our top architect, Jelly Biactol, has assured us that the Tower was built to last - the design was based on Lego-building skills learnt at aged eight. We have reason to believe that the the collapse may be due to a giant purple-finned shark called Colin."
And now, over to our reporter on the scene...




I came back tonight after a night out to the 'after' photo. Obviously I didn't build it as well as I thought:o It must have made a heck of a noise when it fell over.

Disclaimer: No sharks were hurt in the making of this disaster movie.

It's just... one of you (perhaps Aau1 who certainly has the knowledge to do so, and therefore the ability to do it) could sort out my lists for me now the 'draft' versions are on here! It's such a fiddly, long-winded task! Try it and see how long it takes! I will do it as soon as, but not got the wherewithal to do the sorting out immediately!:)

Touch lots of wood, the internet connection seems to have quietened down a bit now and seems to be connected for a bit longer than a minute of on then off for what seems like ages before.

if I had the time savvy.......

Something in your post made me I have a very good friend who is a psychologist. I've been having a moan at him this week ( he likes it ) and he always comes back at me with what I like to call Andy's quotey nuggets .......that sounds mad but we shared a flat as teenagers at uni so were probably very immature when quotey nuggets were invented

Andy's quotey nugget this week was 'If we all had time to do what we know we are capable of, we'd never sleep'

Your book cases look so tidy, mine need a total re vamp. I expect this is what you do on no spend days, tidy your bookcases

The books were in boxes for such a long time (too long, really), then last year I finally got my act together and bought some bookcases (Ikea, off ebay) and got all the books on the shelves. It's only a small room (it used to be the kitchen, would you believe) but it's my own little private heaven.:A

Trying without success to read your book titles

Cookery books on the smallest shelf nearest the camera on the right; the blue folder is for my recipe notes and menu plans.

Wouldn't be able to stand that one upside down

I know what you mean; it bugged me too, once I'd taken the photo:o - but I didn't fancy a game of Toilet Roll Jenga.

how many do you get in one go how many times do you go in a day

Depends, usually 4 at a time, just with the coupons and no purchases, so nowt to pay; I've not had any problems at the checkouts (usually the manned ones), a couple of times the checkout person has called the supervisor as they're not sure how to enter the coupons, but never been queried. In fact, a couple of the checkout staff have asked for details of how to get the coupons for themselves. The coupons are all in the same name, and have different barcodes.
I'm fortunate to have 4 or 5 outlets close to hand, and can visit some of them twice a day. In some of them, I make two 'purchases', one after the other, at different checkouts.
So what you can see in the pic has taken me about three days to accumulate.
I always report back on stock levels here, and never empty the shelves at any particular store.

Just done the mental age quiz.
I'm 30 and hubby is 26 _ how he got to be THAT old I'm not quite sure
Hubby is a firm believer in a minimum of 15 laughs a day.
Maybe I'm not such an old fart after all?
