    Afternoon all. Didn't get to sada yesterday after all, went to Westfield Stratford and it was crazy mad there.
    Went with DH and used our JL vouchers and got a small shop.
    So off in a bit with glitching buddy for squash and deo.
    I'm still not sure what deo's I'm looking for? Are they (as I've seen mentioned) travel sized ones?
    I'm thinking they can both be bought and compare to AVT?
    Sorry to keep asking.
    For those that remember my glitch buddy had a seizure in Tosco and ended up in hospital a little while ago.
    He has been checked out and DR. thinks his heart rate has sudden dips and causes him to faint.
    He is on meds now and feeling fine. We haven't gone back to Tosco together yet, he's still a bit shaky too, but have started sada shops again with his partner taking us in car.
    So he's bothering me now to go shopping as I'm away for a while end of week and he messes up when alone. MEN!
    While in Tosco last week (wool**ch) was talking to the lovely South African CS who always did our DTD, she asked after friend and I said he couldn't come back to Tosco, she was concerned and asked why so I said he was caught shoplifting :)
    Tols her truth and she said ' Well maybe we can all meet up for a coffee sometime soon' bless...........
    Sorry this is long, my longest post ever I think.....................

    We are all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the stars........................

    Is this acceptable?

    Snap is that how the refuse collectors left it after collecting the rubbish. :eek:

    That is totally unacceptable. :(

    Thank you, big hugs right back at you. :grouphug:

    I hope you feel better after a lovely break with your friend. It can be so relaxing, a nice change of scenery. ;)

    I wish I could have stayed at my caravan the weekend but it just wasn't practical with my hands playing up and especially with Teeny around. If Mr TS had not been busy we could have both gone out but I couldn't have managed the water carriers on my own. :eek:

    Determined to go there this weekend. Just hoping for sunshine. :)

    I've had 2 parking fines from Parking Eye and all you got to do is ignore the letters:) the fines go up and up and then go down again over about 6 months and they threaten you will all sorts of stuff and it looks very official and my wife would of paid it to make them go away but if you just take no notice they give up in the end:cool:
    If you type parking eye in a search on mse you should find a thread that shows all the letter you get and in which order:o

    Don't think ignore is the advise now. Hth
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    We have one of those MKS. I would manage to get it back to caravan ok as it's down hill but my hands are so weak at the moment I would not be able to get it back up on it's side to connect to the caravan. :o

    And there would be no hope getting rid of the grey water it's an up hill walk to dispose of it. :eek:

    Unfortunately for me osteoarthritis has been inherited from my mum's side of the family. I was diagnosed in my mid thirties. I don't usually let it get the better of me. :o

    But if it's a minute every day, that's a lot of time over a year. Time that could be spent on ones own garden.

    Would nark me if my access was left like that

    LilacLillie The squash compares better to Sains. The deo compares against Ts. Better to get separate shops HTH
