    :)

    Apologies - rushed out to Ts before work to see if I could get any 10p Christmas items...
    Unfortunately the 'power aisle' had been changed to Easter Eggs :(

    But I did get an 'oinking' pig Christmas dog toy for 1p :D:D

    I bought one of these when it was 75p :) it doesn't look like that any more as my pupster ripped it to bits :eek: :)

    The toy that came with the 1p biscuits seems to be still in one piece though :)

    Good news about your mum Emma. Thought of you earlier this evening as we had Christmas pudding again. Part of a large one made by mil, there's still loads left. At least I don't have indigestion this time (yet!)
    Anyone else still eating their way through Christmas stuff? We had the last two mince pies yesterday.

    :eek::eek:

    Bizarre text from Fourp today asking when cats come into season in the new year....

    ignored it.

    Kittens normally appear in March. Unsure of gestation period of a cat...

    Get home & am informed that our ex tom cat (who was a stray) but now neutered Mr P has being having 'sexual relations' with Tibby Tubby all afternoon in view of the neighbours :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
    resulting in a bucket of water to dampen his ardour

    She is an elderly lady, I presumed she was neutered as she has been around for a few years & her tummy 'buttons' are flat...

    Admittedly she is fit & healthy & tubby now ....

    Am I the only person who has never done a HD or C&C....?
    I'm very much an instore shopper...
    I know the best returns on glitches are usually done via home shopping but I just cant seem to get my head round it...and the thought of spending £25 in one go horrifies me!!!!


    Having said that...I do pretty well for my needs instore without complicating things...

    It took me a few years to do a targeted CIC from Asda.

    I had previously sent a shop to DS2 when he started Uni, it was so horrible I would have rather had crawl on my hands and knees to Sheffield..... it was not something that I wanted to revisit.

    Now I have done a few CIC and they are easy! :D:D

    But an APG of £25 .... OMG!

    We still have far too many mince pies left:cool:

    I usually make the Christmas puddings as it's my Nans recipe and she likes them done a certain way...this year I completely forgot to make them and by the time I realised it was to late to make any. I thought I would get one from A and modify it a bit, a few issues then arose as the one asda delivered had nuts in and Nans recipe doesn't ,I thought I would be clever and pull the pudding apart and remove the nuts.then I found cherries...no cherries in Nans recipe so out come the cherries and then I see the fruit is quite chunky :eek:my this point I'm losing the will to live and chuck it all in the food blender and mould it back in the pot :D hey presto looks the same although a little smaller:cool::D thinking to myself nan will never know :) well she never did find out as she ate the bloody trifle I made instead:rotfl::rotfl:
