    I'm in the process of negotiating the 'loan' of some freezer space with friends, for my overflow of M&S & related bargains shopping.

    One couple really like the Warburtons Thins (I gave them several packets over the weekend), so I'm suggesting a rental price of one packet of Thins per 10cm3 space per week … the lawyers are just drawing up the final contracts for signature.

    Another friend has the M&S and GR vouchers ready to use, but she's a bit of a nervous nellie. We've even tried a role-play workshop, she playing herself (shopper) and me playing the SS till (easy gig, RADA-trained don't you know) beeping in the all the right places, to make sure she does it right. Still not sure. So I've suggested I do the M&S shop for her. I've given her a list of all the options, so she can either mark up the list (like a takeway menu) or come in the shop and point things out, then scarper outside. In return, all I'm asking for is a loan of some freezer space … perfectly reasonable, I thought.:)

    Shame I didn't know as have a bit of cake in JL with my name on it.
    I found the box of 8 above where they should be and got trouted. Nasty lady too, girl on ss was quite nice about it (young, dark hair) but I am suprised I was not wrestled to the ground by the old one. Shame as my favorite shop. She was so busy with the lindor she didn't realise I had not actually scanned them yet but was a bar of cadburys snowy bite. So feel like I had a small victory:T
    Got es from my local which thrilled me as never find anything in there he is normally so on the ball.
    Then cathedral town for m7s shopping twice. Mum was thrilled when I took her a meal deal round.

    Despite trouting I had a nice day and car was lovely and warm.
    Thinking about cutting a finger off a pair of gloves so I can keep hands warm and very grateful to my kids for the furry teddy onesie they got me from sainsbobs at xmas.

    I was thinking on the drive home that mad must be looking down laughing as he has obviously been dancing up there. :A

    Oh sorry you got trouted too!...but at least you had a small victory. We would have been better to have shopped at the same time, then we could have distracted the staff.
    Had a nice coffee and cake at JL with Mattyr, perhaps next month you could join us?...be lovely to meet you.
    Keep warm.
