    Good afternoon :)

    We have a bit of sunshine here too :D

    just got home in time to watch the curling at the Winter Olympics....I do like it!
    Have just opened a mystery wine box from Ts and for the first time Im rather disappointed. 6 good bottles, 3 bottles that I wouldn't normally buy and worst of all.....3 bottles of Liebfraumilchyuck.gifyuck.gif. Oh well, that's the punt and it was a little bit of excitement to brighten the day up.

    :eek: That is not wine :eek:

    I know it's a mystery wine box and all, and if it was only 1 bottle ok fair enough, but I really think I would have to ring and protest
  • Good morning everybody I hope you are well and have a fabulous Tuesday. Happy shopping.

    Thank you Mrs S for the new thread. I hope it is happy and full of bargains and great chat.


    I want to say a big thank you for your support so far in helping me with my swimathon. I am swimming a mile and will be doing this on the 21st March.

    I am currently in training and am building up to doing the mile. My training is going well.

    If you would like to sponsor me here is the link. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

    Bumping for the wonderful streetlights x
    We are many we are one xxx

    So that every single post that I contribute to this thread is on topic I would just like to say I am an elite 11+ member and I hear the unjust silence of my opinions whilst I am shopping in supermarkets mainly. Just sayin.

    I think I got a lazy and thoughtless packer today. There were only 4 different types...3 of each. It's usually a better mix than that. I don't even know 3 people that I don't like to give it to! :rotfl:

    ......school fair fodder ;)

    If you mean the Huggins wipes I bought 12 packs at about 9:45 this morning and was charged £1.64 or £1.66.. I can't quite remember..I shall grab my receipt later and post it up :)

    sorry claire but that really made me laugh...


    a few years back I had the misfortune to win a bottle in the school raffle,and kindly donated it back for the next one only to be told by the teacher that the bottle had been "doing the rounds for the last 4 years"!

  • Afternoon all..
    Hope everyone is ok.

    This weather is just about finishing me off, it's impossible to bike in- It doesn't matter which way I'm biking it's always face wind, I can't see a thing out of my glasses (stupid eye infection) I feel like death every time I get off the blimming thing :eek::(
    Morning all

    Ta for the new Fred stinky :T

    Someone's farted on the bus :mad: my cats farts smell sweeter than that :eek:

    :rotfl: such a way with words QOC :rotfl:
    Hi All :wave:

    Just been to my local school & handed them a box of 1p items
    100 x Pentel Sets
    50 x T's Gel Pen 6pk
    20 Pencil cases
    25 Calculators

    They were delighted & asked why I bought so many, didn't let on just gave them a Tall Story :rotfl:
    They have alot of less fortunate students that don't have the basic things they need so just hope it helps a bit :)

    :T:T that's a fab thing to do willowwispy. :j
    Life is not about learning to avoid the storms - it's about learning to dance in the rain.
