    Snap I am intrigued ;)

    Same here, we don't get that sort of thing locally, the only good thing we have is the headquarters of krispy kreme, and I don't even like doughnuts!

    So what is this secret sale snap, and if it is so secret how come you are going :D

    Morning :D


    SSM, how about signing up to Emma's Diary and getting all the 3 gift packs from argos/boots then shoving them in a basket/box with some sort of bow - cost of a piece of paper ;)

    It does make me laugh that people would attend something like this for someone they distinctly dislike, but then I suppose if it's driven by politics, then you just have to show your face, make the right sounds, then find an excuse to slip away as early as possible

    I definitely won't be having a baby shower (not that I'd know enough people to invite, it'd be more like a baby trickle :rotfl:) - there's defo something about it that's too American. And it is basically saying 'give me presents'. I'd probably refuse to go to one on that basis, especially as I prefer to gift when the baby actually arrives (as in 'I'll give you your present when you let me have a baby cuddle' :D)

    Ooh, I'm talkative this morning - sorry for waffling on :o

    Talkative maybe, but you have come up with a brilliant idea :D

    Glad to see someone else with the same opinion of baby showers as me :D

    Good morning Elite

    Dull and cold here

    Been to MrA for pasta

    FC, hope today is a better day for you and yours. Thinking of you x
    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.

    Am in total agreement with you both on this one;)I am afraid I am old school and do not like all these new fangle ideas they adopt.

    Am I doing something wrong?
    I've gone onto MSL and the first lot of items (mainly birds eye) including the peas have no cashback showing.
    Don't want to go out shopping only to find I can't claim any cashback when I get back :mad:
    I'm sure they had 50% written next to them last night :think:

    Oops forgot to say please and thanx :o
    Historic Debt August 2009 = £63,600 10th March 2017 = £0 100% paid all gone!
    Mortgage started June 2015 = £170,000 January 2022 = £134,000
    Saving for Xmas 2022= . . Amazon £55

    Good morning tweets you certainly are getting your share of horrible weather:(hope you get on okay at Doc's think I have the right day ;)

    Good Morning Nannylala :hello:

    We are known for horrible weather up here could be fine in town which is nearly 2 miles away :)

    My doc retired so I seeing our new one and I am feeling a bit nervous I don't like meeting people I don't know :(

    I am going for a repeat prescription of HRT and telling him about my shoulder. I used to fax and ask for repeat prescription with old doc but thought I better see new one. Old doc was useless with shoulder he gave me cream to rub in right shoulder when it was painful . Trouble was I couldn't reach and made left shoulder/arm sore so didn't bother :D

    Good morning.

    Email this morning from Mr T - apparently large pork leg joints are now half price. It would be a shame if anyone was overcharged due to picking up old stock still being on display ...

    Scamps - you mentioned meat last night so you may be in luck.
