    Hubby bought loads of stuff to give to trick or treaters. We'd better have some! If not I'll be looking up the syns in lots of treat size chocolate bars ;)

    Good luck with the driving tazzy.

    Well done, Shala, beanie

    Hiya, pastmysellby

    Ooh, Annie, that looks tasty! Great news re nomination.

    Well, I’m now down in the dumps.

    After turning the house upside down this morning, I realised I’d lost my purse. I’d not needed it on Wednesday (lunch out was my friend’s turn to pay) and I wasn’t out yesterday. So I worked out I’d last had it in Home Bargains on Tuesday afternoon. Gave them a call, yes it had been handed in and there was quite a lot of money in it. There was about £80 in notes plus change – I get £100 out at a time to limit my spending, so that was a pleasant surprise. They’d passed it on to police she said. So I phoned them, yes they had it there. I went to get it – and it had £1.20 in it! I was sick – it was worse than if it had been handed in to shop empty. At least my bank cards were there. Went back to shop, but they couldn’t find the pink copy from the police and there was no record in the shop’s log. So – either someone from shop pocketed it before it got to the police, or the police took it themselves. Either way, it’s left a rotten feeling behind. I’m going to talk to shop manager tomorrow. Not holding out much hope of solving the puzzle. Thing is, if someone had handed it in with the cash, they deserve a reward. Now they won’t get one.

    Rant over.

    Breakfast: as planned
    Lunch out: potted salmon, mayo, wholemeal bread, salad, chicken korma & boiled rice, watermelon & feta cheese –could have been worse, I suppose
    Dinner: none – feeling rotten

    Waiting for guisers now.


    Saturday menu:
    Breakfast: kippers
    Lunch: batchelors Past ‘n’ Sauce, salad
    Dinner: roast chicken leg, veg, potatoes

    Night all. May the sun rise on a brighter day!

    Oh love what a rotten thing to happen. I don't think its acceptable
    for the store to say they cant find pink slip or there is nothing in the log. They must have a record to be able to tell you it had been handed in and there was a lot of money in it. The police will have a record of how much was in the purse and I thin k its unlikely that the Police would have taken it.
    as the pink slip is a copy of the record when an item is handed in.
    You can ask the police for a copy of their record.


    The store should also have a record of the person who handed it in so you might be able to contact them. I would be kicking up a fuss at the store. Good luck
