    That wire running up the wall would drive me nuts

    Agreed, without looking closer it looks like telecoms wire, and if it is it is internal wire, and the way it goes on the floor it is vulnerable to vermin and all sorts :eek:

    We have a client we have to visit several times a year to fix wire that has been eaten by mice, we can't use re-inforced wire because it wont bend enough, it is in ducting and we use overhead wire which is stronger than normal external, it still gets eaten. We were in an attic once fixing a coax that had been eaten by a squirrel and we saw a flash, possibly the same squirrel had just bitten through lighting cable. It was laying down but it soon sat up, shook it's head, looked at us and scampered off :rotfl:

    So my store isn't the only one that puts apgs below the first product on the receipt now? What is that all about?

    Did I let you know that P'head tosco has hand scanners now? Not used them but thought after Christmas??
  • Have you actually opened the offer and checked, I thought mine was just one bottle until I checked T's & Cs, says Buy 6 :)

    Doh ,yes it does, quite misleading.
    Don't know about anyone else but my head is spinning with all the offers ,cash back,apg, pp ,m&m etc etc.
    I can't do a normal shop any more.

    Good job you don't live with Mr TS, I am sure he is related to Steptoe and son. That wire is neat compared to what I am used to. :o

    I see people's pics of bits of their garden on here and wish parts of mine vaguely resembled a garden instead of a forest. :eek:

    Ditto...18yrs I swear I got an untrainable one :undecided

    FC I meant to say earlier I love your chest for your garden, looks stunning. Reminded me I want DH to make me one of these for the summer - someone posted it on my FB page. Not a clue who's garden it is, but it looks lovely.

    Thank you but I can't take the credit for that one :o that's one of my OHs. I made a similar one (can't remember if I posted a pic or not) but it was a little rougher round the edges than his. He makes these and other stuff from old pallets for the charity he works for. They sell them at posh farmers markets and the like.

    I do really like that as well. So simple but does look really stunning.

    I've got a couple of pallets dossing around so I could go for that in my garden :D

    I got a petite parka type coat. I like F&F ones because they make the arms a bit shorter. Everything else I buy with long sleeves drowns my arms

    I certainly hope this is not the case for the coat I ordered from F&F (sorter sleeves that is). I'm 5ft 8, and don't like sleeves that end at the elbow ...
