Economic Living Is The Exercise

WishI'dReadSooner

Just had my HD shop back.
Bit annoyed as the ice-cream was £1 in Morries BUT compared to £4!!!
The Bakewell tart is 79p in Morries but compares higher than A price.
The Baileys didn't arrive & they had nothing to substitute it for - the delivery man said 'That's crazy!' I don't mind too much as I made a £7.70 profit just ordering it.:)

Sorry bubbs I end up wearing boys cushioned sports socks when I go walking because I find these sort of socks too big for me.

DD1 had some proper walking socks when she did Duke of Edinburgh years back but to be honest I couldn't see what she had paid extra for compared to some of the men's ordinary socks Mr TS had back then. I wish I could remember what make she bought.

Thanks, my sister wants some for her birthday, she just said thick walking socks, she lives in the country and they are for walking the dogs and when they go to fairs etc as also show birds of prey

...and what IOM did you come up with???:D there are several different references to IOM when googled

I must admit if I hadn't read Snaps posts and knew she was there only a few days ago I wouldn't have know either:p

I've now read the posts and I am still stuck on International Organisation for Migration!

I am sure our Snap did not go there!!

Only joking I know where Snap went.... she went to see the little man!

It sounds like you have a particular cruise in mind ???

if you can give details - ship, ports, length etc then we can all put our collective heads together and then either
talk you out of it
or talk you into booking!

is it the QM2 New York and fly back one?


I wish one of the cruise update websites would send me an email with an OMG offer

If you can tie in flights (or don't mind a train from airport) MSC has some cracking deal, some with drinks includes. I missed a 5 day one yesterday for £107. Was only 5 nights but could have had a stop before travelling home. They have one from la spezia on Saturday £399 each for 7 nights but drinks extra. Also have 12 nights with drinks included. The Queen Victoria had 7 nights yesterday for £549 including flights.
Like you I watch trending prices.

Evening all

Art class today drawing perspective. Not easy.
Another day planned tomorrow clearing art room. Should be the last one then job will be sorted:j

I ordered and have just received 3 shower gel baubles from mouton brown:)
I cant remember the offer but I wouldn't have liked to pay full price for them.:(
..but they are lovely, small but ideal for tree/table pressie at xmas, and the package and box are quality and can be reused especially if you can pick up some really cheap moulton brown

I stocked up on bubble bath baubles around March when aromatherapy associates had reduced theirs to something silly. I used the Molton Brown deal for some posh hand wash for cloakroom and 2 of the male shower gel and soap sets for men I think too much of to give the Beckham stuff to:rotfl:
Must get to Boots this week as have that order and yankees to collect.

I almost read that as a well done to me. Momentarily baffled. :rotfl:

Also filling in the GBBO appication for series 7. Wasn't going to, but sod it

There's a question on there about 'what's your baking style'. I replied with 'ordered chaos'
