DH came in from work all pleased with himself because he found a penny in the car park. Gave me a very odd look when I told him he could join Bob's road kill club :rotfl:

Oh dear the controversy roadkill is stirring up. The poor duck RIP...
And now marital disharmony :rotfl:

Frys five centre. Every chunk had a different flavour. Can't remember what they all were now.

I liked MB bars. Not sure if they were just a Scottish thing? But they weren't even wrapped :eek: you bought them 'loose'

Spot on:T

A bygone era when Cadbury's actually contained (Cadbury's Dairy Milk) chocolate (!) that we would all recognise and Rowntrees and Terry's were made in York. I feel sure the size would be better then too :cool:.

It has to be a new zeek acount on a phone that has not already had it on. When you go to set up the zeek account, it gives you the option of putting in a promo code.

It is a new phone/account but just won't let me enter the promo code thingy (keeps looping and not giving me the option to say done/next). Thanks very much coming back so swiftly with your response Dave, wish me luck as I try again for what seems like the hundredth time...........
