    Morning all. I'm comfortably sitting at my brother's upstairs flat waiting for the tour de France cyclists to pass through. Also parked my car on the other side of the road closure in case there's a glitch, just couldn't help myself :rotfl:

    Even if it's only 30 seconds you can still say you saw them :)
    I remember waiting in town for an hour in the rain when the olympic torch whizzed by (took about 10 seconds) but at least I can say I was there :D
    Enjoy!

    All this waiting and build up for half a minute of pleasure... feels vaguely familiar :whistle:

    Yes, like ironing a favourite blouse I expect. :D

    Well that's been a scary 45 mins :eek:

    I heard cat screaming noises by my back door so I flew out the door and there was a cat I've not seen before and my cat flying past me. She jumped up on the wall and while I was chasing the bad cat away mine either fell off the wall or jumped off. She hair under the barbecue and then under the garden bench, and nothing on earth was getting her out.

    She proper scared me :(

    She's curled up on the sofa now but she isn't right :(:(

    It makes me so sad to wonder what might have happened if I'd been at work today

    Good morning all:D

    I feel really bad asking a question, as I don't post often... I don't really have anything to contribute:(:(:rotfl: But, this time I am quite desperate!!!!
    Anyhow, has anyone ever bought multiples of this? I have *a few* different debit cards and Credit cards to pay from (not all mine, dh, ds, dss's), would I have an issue going in to store with many vouchers?
    My washing machine has just given up, he is only 2 years old, but worked very hard! doing 2-3 loads a day everyday!
    I figured, this could be cheaper to buy a new machine, then getting a repair?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated on this, pretty please!

    Thank you in advance x

    Seeing as Zag didn't take up my offer yesterday of Finest goats' cheese and red onion flatbread, early lunch for me. ;)

    Firstly I cannot believe anyone would ever pay £4 for one. :eek:

    And secondly that it took 9 minutes in the microwave. :huh:


    Oh and it didn't sit out on the side all night, a bit of rearranging after dinner last night and I managed to get it in the fridge. ;)


    Finished it off with a little Cadbury pot of joy, I could get addicted to them. :o
