    You don't want to go in lift at mums its so slooooooooow you can walk up the stairs quicker :D

    I went in this haunted lift thing at Euro Disney with DS everyone was screaming before anything happened you was in the dark and i think it was suppose to go down so many floors quick. Still unsure if we actually moved or it was trickery :)
    For our honeymoon, we stayed at the Burj-al-arab 7* hotel in dubai (ooh, get me!) :T They had an "underwater" seafood restaurant . got in a little car/submarine thing, to go down, lots of moving and finally clamped on to the restaurant before the doors opened and we went inside - a massive fishtank thing in the middle. Turns out it was a simulator and not an underwater restaurant after all......:o OH couldn't stop laughing at me being so gullible:rotfl:

    Well I'm very happy to report that my DH completed 2 successful green redeem shops today.

    Also does anyone know the cost if the BBQ food before the 3 for £10 kicks in? Any recommendations in this range would be much appreciated.
    not sure if it's on but they normally do a pack of 20 sausages, in the 3 for £10 range. brilliant sausages too, I'm hoping to get some tomo. So 60 good quality sausages for £10

    Have you had a chance to sample it yet TS? Someone at work told me today they can't taste the difference between that and normal Pimms.

    Have left a message to see if my mum is popping there tomorrow as I have to work again:(

    I forgot when OH came in he was on a fast day too and I poured tiny bits in shot glasses for him to try and he wouldn't. :o

    He could tell the difference from smelling them and rarely drinks it himself. I thought they smelt similar. Pimms looks more reddish brown than the Jeeves.

    I have just put them to my lips and got a taste no more. :o And I would say they do taste similar, Pimms tastes more alcoholic/stronger though. I don't usually drink it neat so won't be able to taste test properly until tomorrow. But Jeeves is very pleasant, neat I would prefer it. :rotfl:

    I notice the Jeeves is only 17.5% and Pimm's is 25% if that is any help. :)

    Oh and the shot glasses and contents less my sip are in the fridge I have been good. :D

    Hello all :wave:

    Not been properly on here for about a month :o RL just got in the way...the first time in a couple of years I haven't been on 11+ daily :(

    Last night I caught up on this thread and was dead pleased to have a successful shop today - banapples, chutney, bacon (hubby is going to be pleased with that one), carver ham, pancake mix and paxo...

    A great start to getting myself back on the glitch wagon :p

    Thanks to all posters and OPs who found these and shared with us all.

    The Haunted House..
    Took my niece when she was about 7 - we went down in the room/lift to get onto the ride..
    She then decided she wasn't going on it :(
    The guy in control had to make us wait until he had seated the lift occupants into the ride carriages. Meanwhile DN is shaking :(

    We had to walk through & up millions of stairs, via the behind the scenery staff walkway to get back out

    :)

    Thank you :j:j I like checking in my wheely bin ;) for surprises. Hope postie is not off like last time and red card is behind door or i will be :mad: :rotfl::rotfl:
