    mainly bloody mainly what do you mean that was the proper way now get on with it ;)

    It's good advice, but it's no good if the problem is due to a disability. That is a different matter of things and not merely a matter of being able to follow advice - for example, it gives no advice to a blind person to advise them to open their eyes if they wish to see! It's a different order - which is what I have explained in the (initial) edit to my post that I've now made.

    It's no good - if it's something that I can't get the right feel of a bulb because of some innate problem related to my dexterity (or lack of) and the way my hands will physically hold or the physical positioning they can physically achieve, that's far different from just practising and practising and being able to do it, and I don't think you got that point! You don't understand a matter such as this as it's not something that you have experience of. Without wanting to blow the dexterity problem up to far more severe than it really is or to be disrespectful to anyone!

    Can confirm that I have Easter eggs and nutri grain bars.

    Is it wrong if I offer the kiddies my 10p chocs at the end of consultations?

    But that doesn't make it the proper way that just makes it the way most people do it.
    What is the proper way to make a cup of tea?

    Oh, apparently I've caught up with replies to posts before I came in on Monday evening (or afternoon:D) so I'm all caught up now! Except for the one reply to this.

    Woohoo...:j:j:j 7,000 posts and did I realise before I hit that number?(:(:rotfl:)

    In reply to David.: You asked a question, and I gave you my answer.

    Now - also in reply to your further post:
    I don't know: I struggle to figure out this society as it is!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: (Lol, as I don't "struggle" that much in fact.)

    Properly;).






    (They needn't be folded "correctly" now, just "properly".:rotfl::D:rotfl::rotfl:)

    Righto, I don't know how the thread got into discussing my abilities or not over different life things, and different people's abilities and views of "proper", just from me posting my result to the online quiz! But anyway... I've no objection or issue about that, so it's fine! I'll leave you goodnight I think!:D Wombles - you know with me, as they are (mostly) from Monday (price changeover for Morries) - I've to make decisions on each one about whether or not to enter them just yet, in case the M prices have gone on offer or have just come off offer. Fosters 20 packs anyone? Is M on offer now (in which case wait) or just off offer (in which case enter now)? M £15 on msm:(:(, so may have to rely on Waities:( being N/A. I think I may just go and enter.

    I'll see you later - I may come back with the results later on, or I may not if they don't reveal anything!:D

    Bye!:wave:wave:

    Steak & Ale pie 2 for £3 no multibuy picked up
    Just steak isn't in the 2 for £3
    Bertolli is a good filler

    Was bricking it until I could see the APG as although I always buy at least 9-10 items my red & brown onions were weighed together. :mad: I think I lost my little piece of ginger somewhere around the shop - no sign of it in bags or on here! I wasn't sure if the Refresher/Tangfastic would both show.

    All OK though thankfully! I did swap my 4 Just Steak for the Boozy ones so got £3.96 back, APG £11.81

    In fact it works out W even higher price above A than M is!
    Largely due to the Chicken Fillets comparing £6.50vs £12.08 for Waities:(:(.

    If only they had not bought that Fosters, I'd be sitting here with a £4+ voucher vs M:mad::mad::mad::(:

    They even managed to buy the right mix of grapes this time!:( (:( as no use on this one.) Is there some glitch here?:think: (They now show different prices for A?)
