    I've just put the order in but I'm hoping it doesn't work as my grass desperately needs cutting and I do love to watch a young man work! :D:D:D

  • Morning all

    Sun is shining, washing is out, picnic is made now it's time to collect DD and head for the park :D
    I'm hoping the sun will continue into tomorrow as well, I feel a little road trip coming on as I'm not working and DD shall be in nursery all day.

    :wave: for now

    Good morning all.

    QOC, you need to get one of these. :D

    http://www.boots.com/en/Boots-Bite-Sting-relief-Click-it_8212/

    Don't have to buy from there as lots of places sell them.

    They are brilliant and they really do work. I take them on holiday. As soon as you notice a bite, use the clicker, and the bite really does stop itching, and the redness and swelling disappear very quickly. Far more effective than any bite lotions, creams or tablets. I recommend it to all my friends, and have given my spares to badly bitten tourists when I'm away. HTH

    Thank you! I am nipping to wilkinsons at lunchtime and there is a Boots a little bit further down the road if they havent got any

    No but while I am thinking anyone seen those bats that zap flies for sale recently had a look in B&M and Home Bargains today but no luck :(
    Put one of those magnetic screens up at the door today and only 1 managed to get in rather than dozens :T
    David, they did have them in HB about a week ago, I was looking at them. I think they sell them in Boyes too upstairs, I bought one a few weeks ago there it was £2 (think HB was £2 too).

    Good morning:wave:

    Turning out to be quite a nice day here:j the sun is shining, the birds are singing and the washing is blowing in the breeze...(could summer be here?)said in a whisper so as not to scare the sunshine:)

    I'm doing my first @ home delivery for tomorrow so fingers crossed the candles are still working nicely. They will be great for the school fair:)

    Just been to a&e with DD... She hurt her toe at her party yesterday and its a bit bruised and swollen today:(... She's ok though not much they can do apparently as broken toes and sprained toes have the same treatment... Basically not a lot. So she's now at school.

    Me and my big mouth:( it's now thundering and raining so I've now a house full of wet washing :mad:

    Morning all.


    qoc I second the recommendation for those clicker things. Biting creatures always seek me out and this really does work.


    Thanks for the reminder about the £1 lunch cheer1eader - I have to go past the station later, so will be taking advantage of this.


    Warm again here today but the sky isn't so blue and it feels quite muggy, so there's probably a storm brewing. Lots of strawberries ripening in the garden but its a constant race to get them picked before the slugs get there first :(

    DD got a really good game for her birthday... It was from the early learning centre, but it got me thinking... It would be a great game for anyone who's memory isn't great or as a brain game. As long as you have pretty good dexterity in your fingers... The pieces are a bit small,

    It involves copying an image using shapes in 2 different colours like they used to have on Krypton Factor:) there's 60 image cards and it does show you the answers on the back:)
