    Am so so, thanks. RL taking over.
    Had lovely day yesterday for DS's 30th birthday. At a very early age he was diagnosed with Cockayne syndrome, probably better known to most as a form as Progeria. We lived at Gosh for the first few years of his life and I was told that he would never walk, talk and be dead before he was 5. He has cerebal palsy, is deaf and hearing impaired but after being told about his expected life span, that is no big deal. :D Love proving the docs wrong. :D

    Had several problems with my dad too. :( Lots of horrible decisions to make soon. :(

    Through this, many thanks to Dotty for making me smile with his constant support. :A:A:A
    :o you might be worth a few bob ;)

    So they don't have Cheese Savouries at 70p in Morries do they?:p

    Glad T's haven't caught up with the price increase at Sainsbobs on the Salted Peanuts - now 80p:eek: there! In fact, I was looking at some old threads on here (don't ask:D;)...) and found the s Basics Salted Peanuts, which were always more expensive, used to be 65p. Now 80p. So, an extra 15p is the cost of the additional quality (or not) that Sainsbobs give you.

    I bought the Crispy Fish Bites a couple of weeks ago - didn't mention it on here at the time as I chose it as a 'muggles' item on my shop:o:o - really quite expensive compared to Young's Flipper Dippers when they were below £1 on offer. I think I got taken in by the fact that I 'do rather well' with the APG so didn't mind paying A a bit more on this one occasion:eek:. How much is the COS CB on these? I bought them a few weeks ago, when they were £2 in T, therefore effective cost £1.80 net on APG.

    Didn't really like them that much:(, sorry:o:o, as in sorry to be brutally truthful again:o:o:o:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:. They were less than twice the amount of the Youngs dippers at more than twice the price:eek:.

    Oh those cheese savouries!! They are one of DS2 favourites. They used to be called cheese snacks and came in a red bag. They're now cheese savouries and in an orange bag. Exactly the same contents but he took a lot of convincing! :eek: :rotfl:

    As a for the fish bites. More expensive yes, but they go a lot further. I used to buy flippers for DS2 but he was eating a whole box in one go :eek: so I just buy normal fishy things for him now. Fish fingers, fish cakes, battered portions etc. To be fair I'd probably not buy these if it wasn't for the CB He pretty much eats adult portions so all those things aimed at kids aren't cost effective anymore. 50p CB on them and he eats 10 in a sitting with chips/waffles etc

    I, yet again we dont know how lucky we are the majority of the time :o
    I was in town earlier and noticed a middle aged couple open one of those cigarette butt things on a pub wall and rake through it till they found a couple of good ones :eek:

    We were In Lisbon first time and we were upstairs in McDonalds and someone, a woman was sorting through the rubbish bin looking for edible food - not certain, possibly North African - this seemed to be normal behaviour, no one was taking any notice.

    As said you get up in the morning and count all of your blessings, every one of them, even the tiny ones :)
