    Sitting wondering what I can do with the little plastic pot when I've ate it:rotfl:

    99c8a960b5606728894a68629007deb0_zpse36ada22.jpg

    We had those today too, very yummy. I used my last pots for other desserts to take on a picnic, ideal for seedlings, or as you say pates.

    I found in my bag another £10 voucher for m&s so did 2 shops of 2 meal deals in each shop. Got 4 lovely big chicks, just over £8 each.

    Had a late lunch, 3pm as ds3 is on nights , and now he is on his own he pops in for lunch or dinner now and then.

    So, my tale of woe is out in the open, after being together for 8 years and married 18 months dil has decided she no longer loves ds3 and has left him :( We were devastated when he told us as she was the daughter we never had.
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    A question pretty please.

    National trust membership - I've looked on Topcashback and sadly its not listed - seem to think it was on their some time ago - or did I imagine it?

    So I looked on Quidco and its 3% - well its better than nothing.

    I am contemplating getting young persons membership for youngest son (for under 25s) - I think his membership has expired. National trust membership gives him free parking and as it owns vast swaths of the Lake District its very useful to have the sticker in your car window.
    And its only about £20 for under 25s :D

    Also it gives you free entrance to some Scottish national Trust places - not certain of this but at least discount rates - very useful as he often goes to visit midge infested places :)

    (he's on a very low income but refuses to accept much help but this is one of the ways he will let me help - very independent :) )

    purpledonkey, Silver Spoon Liquid Glucose is now RTC at 26p in A. Seems as though they've replaced it with Dr Oetker

    What is it they say?

    I got this womble this afternoon. It has a multi on it :- toiletries 2 for £5, but only 2 show up on the APG.
    The deodorants barcodes on the receipt are 871478976252 and 871478976334. I don't know what one is the one on the APG or how to find out what the other item is. I'm going away Tuesday morning so am busy tomorrow but IF I get time I will go and have a quick look at my A unless we find out what the items are before then.
