    Come on, don't be afraid, try a Jaffa Cake one! It should work as Morries do sell it - I have just my doubts about whether it's too new to be picked up. I'm probably wrong to have my doubts? So don't let me discourage you, or anyone.

    Morries do not have Banoffee as far as I am aware, so - from the POV of me as a know-all(:laugh:) - that should never have been bought and there was no need to try to "test" it at all! (I'm not meaning to suggest that people just aren't as knowledgeable or efficient as me:o:o - I don't claim any holier than thou or superiority - but simply, from my POV, I can't see it any other way!:A)

    Thanks Master of the Morries Facts and Figures Savvy, I rarely go to Morries and wasn't sure which varieties they sold, but can see how the Banoffee was doomed to failure yet there is a faint chance that the Jaffa Cake might work. Very logical ;)

    Potential C&C SEL RTC heads up.

    Persil Small & Mighty Bio 60 wash 2.1ltr. A RTC £8, £13 A v £7 S according to MSM. So should be £7.30 return on £8 spend per bottle.

    Not tested but has worked in the past. Will need checking as different stores had different results in the summer - this is in medium A.

    Ariel 3 in 1 pods 38 regular are £8 RTC from £12,48 but no good matches and Fairy nonbio 24 wash 1.2l £3 RTC from £4.

    Yes exactly like that, but in A mine have New (white writing, pink background) top right corner of label. Remember 450ml not 500ml worked as the trigger (labels are very similar).

    Snap's dear dad has had a stroke:(
    Nice to see you posting again and glad you are feeling better x
    I would say the same about your hair as your bosy has been through so much :A
    Please do not get your hopes up about tomorrow as wouldnt want yo to be so upset, i can understand you want to come home, but make sure you are well enough xx

    Oh dear:(. (I'm not going to say the right thing here so bear me out - I'm certainly not happy about it:(.) Strokes can be serious but sometimes people can have them and not realise that they've had one (they still need medical attention though). It depends on what effect it's had.

    I've not read any of the details at all, since I just happened to be away from here at the time. So what I'm saying is completely without any knowledge of the situation - there's far more to this than what I know - although what I can't understand is why people - it's always neurotypical people in my experience - are so nasty and spiteful of others. I suspect it's pure emotional things that always take over the rest of the world but why is it any of a boss's business to make negative comments about a worker's father? How does that impact the employee's ability to do their own job? Other than by the boss's comments themselves undermining the employee:(.

    I just wanted to acknowledge the fact that the posts about the stroke were going on around me, and not to appear to be continuing as if nothing had happened. However, I don't really know what to say in the situation as usual and fear that anything I say might cause upset. It's always my dilemma and often leads to me remaining silent and not making any acknowledgement at all (which is then wrong) rather than saying something and risking it being the wrong thing because I think differently to everyone else and anything I do will be wrong - it'll cause upset despite that being the last thing I want to cause and everything I'm doing is trying to avoid causing upset. I just think I'm probably saying the wrong thing and speaking out of turn again, even though I never intend to do so.

    I just wanted to acknowledge that things were happening around me and say that I'm unhappy that anyone has had a stroke.

    I'm sorry if anything I say (or don't say) here upsets anyone. I know it's not the usual way of replying that you would expect. I am thinking about whether to post this post at all - but then I'll go back to the complete silence and everyone thinking I'm being disrespectful by ignoring it. So, forget it, I'm posting it.

    See, I'm being spoken to again as the expert and font of all knowledge:D:rotfl:. Yes, it'll work tomorrow (as long as they picked up the Jaffa Cake one in the first place and at 50p).

    I'm putting it simple - I'm thinking a lot more than this of course:rotfl:. But that's the simple answer.

    I think your OP would have been better with an emoticon added thus:
    "Thanks Master of the Morries Facts and Figures Savvy:p,...".

    Why is there a "faint chance" that the Jaffa Cake version might work? I'd have thought it was more than a "faint" chance. Instead, it should clearly work. (Which means tentatively just test a single one of them in a shop first to check, before everyone them goes mad if it comes back successful.)

    Why was Chocolate & Caramel bought? Yes, I've checked my own list (I'm not that good - sadly :(I do have to go back and check) and M don't have this one either.

    Of course, would be rude not too :rotfl:

    Tweets sorry to hear poppy having rough time with fireworks, should be banned and only have them on one day xx

    Sorry good morning everyone.

    I am more than angry while at mums fire alarm went off so took ages before fire brigade arrived and turned it off Poppy wasn't happy listening to that . Mum says no one in complex allowed to be key holder to switch alarm off :( Daft that they would rather pay for fire engines and men to come for false alarms when key holder could see where alarm had been set off and check turn off and cancel firemen if false alarm.

    Came home and Poppy just settled in her bed and grrrrrrrrrrr fireworks went off so she at side of sofa not a happy girl .

    I agree should be banned and bang ones not allowed at all .

    Snap I'm not too sure what's gone on as I've missed so much on here. You're obviously having a hard time though and work sounds awful, so sorry.m:(

    Tweets, poor poppy, really feel for her.

    Managed a shower again today and things going in the right direction. Am so desperate to get out tomorrow. Really bored, which is another reason I know I'm on the mend as when poorly I can't do anything.

    Need to visit the hairdresser when I get home. A couple of weeks before I came back into hospital my hair started coming out in handfuls. It carried on in hospital, although finally seems to be coming to a stop. I don't think there are any bald patches but it's just got really thin. Most people seem to think its a reaction to what my body has been through over the last 3 months. :o

    This might be a radicle solution which might or might not work to the hairdressing problem if they don't let you escape tomorrow
    I am wondering if the hospital would allow a hairdresser to come and see you
    - A few days ago someone mentioned something called Streetlife - register and you can ask on it if anyone local to you has their own hairdressing business and works in hospitals?

    The terrible stress your body has been under its no wonder your hair suffered. You might just need a good cut to get it back on the straight and narrow :D
