Ohhhh maybe I've done it wrong then?
I put in my info & then it said there were no matches in my area & gave me the option of increasing the distance (which I did) and it then brought up one person with a pic - there were also a couple greyed out which I didn't really understand?:oGrocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)

I thought you had to pay!!
Beanielou, you can browse, but if you want to message one another or want to know the person you contact has been verified, you have to pay a small subscription.
I'm meeting a doggy and their owner on sat, really excited
As a dear MSE friend says “keep plodding” or
What does the saying say.... When life hands you lemons, make lemonade
Or as my Mum would say, brush yourself down, tomorrow is another day or
Fake it, to you Make It

I'm sure keeping on here helps - I tend to hide when I'm not being good & then it just gets worse & worse!

Well .... morning all - it's the weekend :T we've made it through the 1st week back at work! :T
Not a lot happened this week - Maisie went to my Mum's on Monday & I collected her last night
- really as I was still full of cold at the start of the week & Mum took pity on me having to go back to work & said I'd never manage to give the dog decent walks too! Missed her .....
It was a bit like dodgems dodging the fallen trees on the way to work yesterday :eek: - the road into my village is shut for 4 weeks :mad: so having to detour either a long way or via a very little used country road (which is the one I'm doing) although there's a horrendous 'level' crossing to go over which has to be the most un-level thing I've ever been over in my life - sends the bones jarring & feel quite sorry for my car :mad:
Have to say though ...... it is absolutely vile out
Really windy again last night (got woken up several times) and the rain is absolutely lashing against the patio doors
(I'm sure I can see them moving with the gusts of wind :eek:)
Can't see us going far today - will need to take Maisie out but have no idea where as I usually go to the woods if it's really wet - but obviously not a good idea in really strong winds
Beach will be out as the sand will be blowing about too much which isn't nice for her
mmmmmm not sure of the solution to that one yet!
Don't need a lot but do need to top up with fuel & get a few bits for lunches next week, milk etc
Hope you're all safe where you are & have a good weekendGrocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)

mmmmm still looking a bit 'iffy' out - hopefully I'll get a decent walk with Maisie later on
Just realised I'm DF again :j as I paid off the remaining car loan (only really taken to get the discount off the car as it was a big chunk :money:) and with the PPI claim the OD has gone too!
Whoop, Whoop!
Wonder if I can manage to stay here this time
Maybe I should 'declare' on the DF thread .... never done that before - maybe it would make me stick to it! :cool:Grocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)
