    Had some terrible news, my friend's 11 year old son died unexpectedly. He had severe cerebral palsy but this was a total bolt out of the blue for everyone, his mum and dad included. I think I'm still in shock about it :( The poor kid has battled all his life, had numerous operations on his legs and was in a wheelchair. It's heartbreaking.

    So sad :ARip

    Good morning all,


    Sorry to hear such sad news from Sarah about her sister.

    My wife and I have been through similar. I'm over it now but my wife is still heartbroken (obviously it will always be harder for the woman to deal with). She wants to try again but I don't and this is causing us more arguments and upset.

    On the plus side I managed to pick up some Thorntons 1p toffee this morning, thanks to the OP, not sure who it was, I made a list of items and that was the only one I could find.

    I am sorry for your loss and for Sarah and her sister and all of you with such burdens. I could cry for you all and have, Not much use to you or anyone, I know, but...in my thoughts all of you just the same.

    Sending you hugs, how awful and tragic.

    Ekroys17 sending you hugs aswell.

    Manage to get ahem few boxes of es amaretto flutes, and sat down with a cuppa to try them out and nearly spat it out, they are vile, never had amaretto so didnt really know what it was going to taste like :( will definitely be handing them out to family :rotfl:

    Also got lots of sticky notes star shape for 1p and a rolson windup torch for 10p.

    Just back from a mammoth scanning session

    As well as the lindt balls I got

    Thorntons special toffee 300g b0x b/c 2521 1p

    JVC Colour Pop headphones b/c 2371 (clipstrip) 1p (SEL £5)

    SAM_3002_zps2d8c4997.jpg

    The 5780 model b/c 48909 £2.50 each :eek: SEL was £45 or £50
    (There was another model - a pink one- but the b/c was illegible & wouldn't scan so I left those) I may go back later ;)
