    Another long post lost due to my stupidity of typing too quick on iPad :eek: seems to freeze and won't unfreeze. I then go on to lose it :mad:

    Anyway, hope you are all well and recovering from the lurgy. It seems to hand around for weeks.

    NSD for me today due to you know what, if it is mildish tomorrow I might pop up to Mr T and have a look around, see what's in stock.

    Black Tower fizzy wine, does anyone know if it will work tomorrow on a c&c please ? Thank you x

    Watching XFactor, that alien thing I was going to watch last night was utter rubbish. Nothing scientific at all, so after 10 minutes I switched off :rotfl:

    Now where is my coffee pot :)
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    Anyone looking for cheap but useful fillers for a S v A shop, there's the Heinz pasta shapes 45p in S but £1.50 for 4 in A and there's about 10 different types.

    I often have them on toast for lunch:)

    Well that's very annoying:o

    Just checked COS and they are giving 50p back from today on those little laughing moo cow cubes.....which I bought yesterday:o :rotfl:

    Did I tell you I found the smell in the fridge......an open pack of chorizo which was underneath the cheese mountain:o
    Pongy :o

    I got my laughing cow on Thursday - now I am mad. I saw their FB posting which said upload by midnight, didn't realise it was a one day offer.
    With so few useful cashback items for the last couple of months I am forgetting to check the lists ...

    These are lovely - are you keeping them inside as house plants.

    I love 20p plants - my nearest recently to this has been 2 different ferns in pretty pots for 79p - translucent green and pink pots and they sit on my desk :)

    Yes inside mhoc....there have been some lovely bouquets lately but for value for money you can't beat the house plants which last ages....the Orchids in T are always good value at whoopsies time

    Forgot to mention that when we bought the paint at Homebase yesterday we got a leaflet to complete an online survey to receive £5 off your next £50 purchase.

    And while I remember ....check your diaries for next week. Sure it's the start of the Christmas evenings in Boots....£10 worth of points on a £50 spend.

    Just looked .........Thursday in Durham from 3pm

    Interesting re Homebase

    There was a TV advert tonight about compact karchers on offer for just under £50 which looked good - reviews look good on they website. These would be good Christmas presents - I was hoping for a 20% off sale
    Not quite enough nectar points :)

    Just going through in my head and ticking off the names of people I am worrying about and making sure they are all alive and kicking.
    One person went MIA yesterday,switched off FB notifications, switched phone off and let battery die, went off to lick wounds in a corner but thankfully back online again now.

    But now I am wondering about FC - missing now for weeks - hope she is at least lurking

    I'm not even asking mhoc until we are well into December. I have discovered with our children's generation that they don't like to make plans but if they do they don't like to share them:rotfl:

    TM, where have I gone wrong? My offspring invite themselves to stay (along with their in laws) and the local ones invite themselves to come for Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day and will let me know of any other day, 'if that' ok', in January for the following Christmas. Come October, I'm asked if I remember that we are all coming for Christmas. lol. I am already being asked if the mince pies and sausage rolls have been made :eek::eek::eek

    I've had 5 orchids from Mr T at whoopsie time and 1 from Mr M. The M one I'm not sure of the name but it is one main upright stem and lots of white flowers grow on the stem, very pretty.

    The rest have been presents, all my boys have been told NOT to buy a blue orchid as they are dyed. When they regrow the following year the flowers are white. Google it :cool:

    Off to watch Downton, snuggled in my bed :)
