I don't know if this will work .. Hopefully a will be a video of boo . Oh and I kept accusing each other and the children of leaving the bin open.. And then it got a crack and we found the culprit



Edit:Hmm well that didn't work .

So I went and washed up, kitchens are good places for having a howl as you can blame the inhuman noses on 3 cats wanting their lunch. Then I told OH what had happened and he ring them back - far too polite. Then an hour later and a bang on the door and the flowers arrived. They are beautiful of course - not sure how she expected them to be in the same condition left in the shop until Monday I don't know. On the card son had written
I'll be back soon
So now I am pieces again.

You've got me started now ... :sad:

But glad to hear it was all resolved in the end.

Johnsons make up be gone wipes are showing on MS as £3.05 or 2 for £1.00 and on asda £3.05 or 3 for £6

Is it not 2 for 1 loolah?

In November eldest child was getting a tuck box together to send to her brother and she sent an email around her office to ask if anyone had any spare shoe boxes. By the end of the afternoon it had gone viral - everyone thought it was such a fantastic idea she was inundated with offers from people in her office block - offers of shoe boxes, people's sweety stash, offers to help pack boxes and even money to help fill boxes. Over November and December over 20 tuck boxes were filled and sent off to everyone in sons group - they had the most fantastic Christmas opening the boxes, total sugar overload

Its a fab challenge getting as close to the 2kg limit as possible
Love taking boxes to the post office and I'll miss it when he goes to his next posting.

That's brilliant

It's 3 for 2 Bubbs.

It will be the meal deal next week. Hopefully we will all have time to get our heads together and work out a strategy.......fingers crossed it will be whole chickens again:)

No the food isn't online just highlights of the offers

Back after being a good girl and doing all of my pre course reading. I am all ready for my annual update week when I start back at work on Monday. Feel much more confident after a good refresher. I remembered more than I thought

Logie how is your shoulder?
My friend ordered a silver one on line was over £100

It's still a bit niggly but much improved suggesting it was just a pulled muscle or similar :beer:

mhoc, sorry you've had a bad day. You can only bottle things up for so long. Hopefully you'll feel a bit better now you've released the pressure a little. Glad you got your flowers in the end and hope you have a fab Birthday tomorrow.
