    Bought my measuring jug from Argos to get the 1000 bonus nectar points. Paid with 500 points plus 99p cash.

    £1.51 up and a free jug.

    I only chose the jug because someone else on here (mhoc?) had picked it.

    No not me, I got the very unoriginal white pillow cases :)

    But I do have a very old, decades old Pyrex. Jug from my carefree single days :)

    There are certain stretches of road where they do seem to be particularly stupid.

    Almost as dumb as pheasants! Many a time we have been out on his bike and a pheasant comes out from the hedgerow :eek:

    pheasants and motorbikes are clearly not made for each other. So many accidents caused by the pheasants :(

    Unsure if we've spotted this.

    The Birds Eye lightly dusted cod £1.50 back on Quidco until 25th August. We've had it once or twice lately and it's really nice with new potatoes and peas out of the garden:D

    Edit...can't get that link to work but comparing to £1.50 in A and S

    Is this a reappearance on Quidco? Have to check my Q again - not seen it this afternoon. I really like the lemon and black pepper but I've just about finished the ones we were getting for free and the try me trial :)

    Evening

    Phew! I've spent all evening sorting out the freezers. I was at glut point with tomatoes so I got OH chained to the cooker today ;) he's turned them all into sauces, soup and chutney :A (I think it's chutney? :o ) I've tidied the freezers up and packed it all in.

    I'll be able to feed the kids decent food for the foreseeable as long as I don't burn whatever goes with the sauce :D

    I've also had a bumper crop of onions and garlic this year so lots of them were used as well. I must start having more faith in myself when I plant tomato seeds. I plant too many 'just in case' then they all germinate and I can't bear to throw good plants away :o it was totally OTT this year and I have 6 plants outside that I had no room for elsewhere :o

    Male pheasants are really dumb, they actually wait at the side of the road until you are passing.
