    Hi all, newbies & lurkers
    Belated birthday wishes to those I missed, hugs to those in need.
    Have missed loads esp the Bella Italia how could I miss that 1.
    Ck have u thought about using my Hermes for your parcel generally cheaper n u can drop them off as n when or have your local courier collect them for 20p each more per parcel. May be worth a look.
    I'm still doing the c25k app but have been stuck on week 5 for ages, as kids were off n I was doing it solo, and every time I get there with it something comes up n I struggle again.

    Nice to see you Durham. I hope you're enjoying the rest that is term time :D
    Agree about Hermes, I think they're reasonable given that they pick up from home.
    My Hermes man is sick of the sight of me this week. I've managed to order 2 trampoline jump mats that have both not fitted. He delivered them both and picked up both returns :o I've ordered a third one today after realising they can have 64 or 72 hooks. Ours has 72 and the ones I ordered had 64. DS not impressed with the Sagginess.

    Thanks for the help with the t-digital gift cards, worked fine today, think I was too tired yesterday to concentrate and do it properly.

    I must get to bed soon. I'm in uni tomorrow and haven't been there for so long I might not be recognised. How did people manage before there were emails? :eek:

    I've not been keeping up at all lately but was thinking of Munqui earlier. I don't recall seeing him but I hope he got some fizz.

    Oh don't! He'd have me pulled up on that instantly. He's taking his project very seriously! I had the job of cutting and glueing his Swedish flag at the weekend. I had to de-construct it after putting a yellow stripe in the wrong place :o

    He is also going to have to stop watching cookery programmes with me. One of our cats has been wombling in someone's bin lately. I keep finding random half eaten items of food that isn't ours in the garden. A half eaten pork pie on Sunday, I think a chicken wing yesterday and tonight DS2 came in from the trampoline and said 'Mum there's a langoustine in the garden' :rotfl::rotfl:

    Sure enough there was a king prawn in the garden :rotfl:

    I am impressed that your cat is such a refined wombler - no headless rabbits for him :)
    Your neighbours must have been having a posh soir!e - moved on from pork pies and chicken wings to shell fish:)

    We get regular dead mice from one and baby birds when they are in season :(
    The wombling cat is very lazy and obviously won't tackle anything live.

    The neighbour who these 2 cats 'belonged' to originally finally moved out about 4 weeks ago. Sadly they never enquired where their cats had gone :( They had taken them in from a relative that died but obviously weren't cat people. The female one who the kids have called lady gaga :o comes in the house now and is getting comfy.
    The male one, who is the wombler is called Clive (also by the kids) and he still likes to sleep in the shed. I'm thinking I'll need to make him a winter bed. He's very skittish if he comes indoors so I just let him do his own thing. After the neighbours moved out I've had them both chipped and checked over and insured :)

    They're mine now :D
