    Good Morning all. How are you Izz?

    If I try the cakes this morning is there anything else I can amalgamate with this offer? My voucher is close to 8 quid. Please and thanks.

    Hi mimi, okay thanks, and your goodself? :) I won't ask about work :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Glad you got your cakes, they nearly turned out to be very expensive ones though :eek:

    I went into an small Asda this morning and they have the new SS tills in there. Came to my shop and there was some cash sticking out of the front of the machine. I called the SA over and it turns out the new SS tills in Asda give out cash back - the guy in front of me had gone off without his £50:( She tried to catch him but he had gone. Sure he would soon remember though. I wonder how many folks do that ?

    I guess you have a point my gorgeous young lady friend, but there are 2 SA's in Shada that follow me around because they know I like to do the APG thing, so I keep thinking they will have a large photo of me in the back office saying "watch out for him". LOL.

    Obviously you guys are a lot braver than me hahaha. ;)

    Now what to do with the cakes? More to the point, why did I even buy them in the first place? Doh! :(

    :eek::eek:

    :rotfl:

    :o:o

    :):)

    And the cake? Kettle on; feet up and have a slice with a brew.

    Glad you are OK lovely. I am fine thanks. I won't even start about work. They are still making my life hell, but I don't understand why? I got some of the highest marks in our team for my appraisal and I am one of the easiest people to get on with. Surely they should pick on the dunce, but what do I know!

    Oh err Mrs. I don't do sweet things. Chocolates/Cakes/Pastries etc make me want to throw up. Now give me a pizza or crisps or something savoury and I will chomp the whole lot down before you can blink twice, hahaha. ;)
