Hiya, good evening!:D:)
My womblees again - as I continue down my new obsession of criticising their shops - one of them has got 20 items. With them, though, is that still scraping 8?:( Oven tray, oven tray, oven tray, pizza tray, all do not count:(:(. They've gone for three times hopeless non-comp. cheese rolls again:mad: - why do they all get cheese rolls and same three, has Mr A got an advertising campaign on its cheese rolls or something? The Wispa Gold - 3 at 60p and therefore 3 for £1 making it 33.3...p vs probably 60p each elsewhere:( is bound to ruin it. They've got a £5.00 Surf - but have they got the same version as the one that's on at £4.50 in T or have they got the hopeless Sunshine Meadows version that's outside at the front of the store?!?:(:( No prizes for guessing which...
Shop I had yesterday had 99 items on it, but still failed to get the 8 required:(. They bought 76:eek::eek: packs of A's SP Spaghetti - must run a catering business or something - but 76?!?! With the numerous other duplicated items on the shop, they got the Spaghetti packs with 6 other different items, in other words total 7:mad::mad::(.
Either that or they leave their receipt one month after they did their shopping!:mad: 23rd March I've got! No hope - I've got the 'older than 28 days' message:(:(:(.(:rotfl:Who knows? Maybe some of the others will come up favourably.)0 -

Robinsons still working from shop this afternoon :j
I was disappointed to find they contain aspartame when the label boasts about "all natural" or something to that effect, there's nothing natural about aspartameOH will have them anyway since he won't listen to me about drinking water rather than chemical filled diet drinks!

If you still think it's struggling an idea might be to pot it up in orchid compost for a while. It's really loose and free draining and if it has had a bit too much to drink, it'll help the roots to recover. Good luck, it's rotten losing a plant you've nurtured
Thankfully everything was bone dry and clean. I think the weight of its base leaves pulled the stem away from the roots. Hopefully my first aid will have done the trick
It's planted in a mix of home compost, sharp sand and horticultural grit, and has thrown out about 8 pups since I got it as a 10 inch thing in May last year, so it likes it's soil
I gave it a good clean while I was at it, it looks lushEnterprise_1701C wrote: »:T:T:T

My raspberries from last year that did naff all have got fruits on them this year, and the ones I bought this year have got very tall canes with nothing growing on them but lots of new growth from the bottom of the canes :rotfl:
My apple tree is the same. About three times as much blossom this year as last year :jI’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Health & Beauty, Greenfingered Moneysaving and How Much Have You Saved boards.
