    Me either Jelly. I won't start up a hashtag for us ;)

    I think it's probably because I have three 'active' programmes at the minute.

    Love your post rhos I have a vision of what you have described and how warm and cosy you all must be on a cold Winters night:A
    thanks , it is cosy, and somehow the boys suddenly became interested in cooking, forks turning bacon, and ds2 fried bread in the bacon pan, they have never had fried bread, I always grill things. it was so nice doing it all together. and makes me look foward to winter for a change :D
    You can't beat a solid fuel Rayburn :)

    Oh such memories.... I remember walking into the kitchen to find the goat curled up on the seat that was in front of it. And the year we cooked the Xmas turkey with the door open :rotfl::rotfl::D

    :rotfl: think i will buy 2 small turkeys ;)

    Thanks NANA and EMMAP. I've been drinking loads of water and Lucozade and have finished all the Potters / Soothers / Lemsip lozenges. I don't think I was meant to have had that many. Oh well.

    Can I ask you lovely ladies for some advice. I need to buy 2 presents for 2 managers who made me go for the promotion. I don't know what to buy though. Chocolates are a bit meh so I want to get something else. 1 is 57 and very glamorous and 1 is 49 and even more glamorous. Would buying them perfumes be a bit OTT? Also, what perfume would I get? If I was to get them a skincare / make up gift set, what brand should I be looking at? Could someone kindly advise.

    Tastes in fragrance can be a bit personal. I had to buy a 'thankyou' pressie for a lady I knew little and opted for a Molton Brown handwash & lotion set.

    I was looking at the Tosco CC site, trying to find the limit for CC points when I saw:

    Savings to be used by end of
    December
    24p / litre

    I thought it was capped at 20p a litre?

    Confused!

    Ignore me … just found this

    Save up to 20p a litre
    In fact, there's no limit to the number of fuel savings that you can earn each month, but the maximum you can redeem in each fuel transaction is 20p a litre.

    ps the points are

    'Members can earn a maximum of 30,000 points in any one collection period.'

    SSM carries on getting 3V

    evening all, xx
    I have had the best afternoon, sometimes the simple things are so much fun, oh fired the rayburn that we have put in up, the first time the other day we had a leak:( today all went well, so I had heating in my kitchen for the first time in over 14 years..:j:j
    so ds2 said we should make bread so bread by hand from scratch, but it had to be round with cuts in the top as he googled it:othen he said bet you cant make dinner on the rayburn . so dinner was bacon, eggs and beans and home made bread with chocolate cake for pudding all cooked on the old rayburn :j we even boiled the whistling kettle:D with everyone in the kitchen sitting around it :p so all ready for the power cuts now, and we get lots here..

    Oh you paint such a lovely picture rhosynbach. I almost want you to have a power cut after reading that :D
