The ELITE thread.The home of hugs, fun, glitches and laughter

Thanks to this site....As a newcomer to the prestigious Elite thread (hope you don’t mind me butting in!), I have stumbled across some great money saving tips and been entertained during the process. Like everyone I am looking for ways to save some pennies for my family and reading the posts on here in the last few days has already saved me money – and it’s been fun:D I have loved reading this thread, you all seem incredibly supportive and helpful. I have learnt some new tricks, found invaluable information and discovered a whole new language in just a few days. Thanks everyone!

Maybe one day I will get pile of toilet paper as big as Jelly Biactol's:rotfl:

Breakfast was some stewed apples (windfall, free), lunch was sandwiches using Warburtons Thins with cheese and mayo bought with the Sainsbobs £0.60 free shopping with Warbs MOCs, and tea will be M&S food bought yesterday ... so a day's worth a free food.:)
But for tea, shall I have the millionaire shortbread or the chocolate souffle - decisions decisions:D

Also done a MOC shop today, two pots of Quaker Heaps of Fruit, and a Nakd bar - all free:)

So it's turning into another great money-saving day:T

I love days like that. We've been having "free fish Friday" from when msl was being extremely generous... sadly we had our last box last week. :(I'm just having a free yoghurt...they taste even better when they cost nothing.

My gardens are too, dont worry....its normal for bluebells to start coming up but they'll go dormant and come up again in the spring proper


My apple tree is budding, my magnolia tree is the same. My onions started sprouting in the bags and both my blackcurrant and raspberry plants are budding too I'm enjoying the signs of spring but know it wont last long


My parents little apple tree had blossom on it in December. I drove past another tree a couple of weeks ago and that had blossom on it too

same here everything is budding all the fruit bushes are in bud daffodils are getting quite big and perennials and growing well am worried about snow and frost killing everything

Do you cut them back after the fruit has finished or do you leave them?

Thankyou. We had quite a few but the first year we only had 2 raspberries :rotfl:but I didn't trim it because it was so small.....
