    morning all - still murky and gloomy here :D

    first thing when I wake up in the morning is to think what we might do for dinner and also to do a head count to remember where everyone is.

    this was my "initial" thought this morning
    eldest child and BF - LA
    us - UK
    youngest child - HK

    :rotfl:

    very bad pun, I will go back to reading back :rotfl:

    :( looks like the extra points on the print from T direct have now gone now that the clubcard boost has kicked in.
    It was available last night, I put 1 in my basket, but had doubts as I wondered why do we need another printer when I had the new one delivered yesterday.
    The trouble with me is im indecisive
    Oh well never mind

    oh dear g....

    The John Lewis advert wants me to crawl back into bed :rotfl:

    the trouble is it gets into your head and follows you around - I think it must have been last winter we were having a nice lunch in a posh hotel in Gibraltar with musak in the background and everything was very lovely until I recognized the tune as the John Lewis advert music
    Honestly by the time we do our winter break I am on Christmas overload and it then follows up ....

    Yes fingers crossed.
    This second type is nowhere near as intense as the last lot. It made me feel so I'll but I lost a friend to cancer quite near the beginning of my treatment. There wasn't any treatment that could help her which made me feel eternally grateful that there was for me.
    I cannot rate the NHS high enough from the consultants, oncologist, nurses they have all been brilliant and made a horrid situation far more comfortable. It must be soul destroying when the media constantly slate them.
    I need to have an operation next year and it will be 16 hours long can you imagine the effort and cost that will entail! Thank goodness for the NHS :o

    you can see the offers even if not a member
    https://www.quidco.com/clicksnap/offers/instore/

    they are here
    http://groceries.asda.com/asda-webstore/landing/home.shtml#/search/tetley%20super%20green%2020

    on offer @T until 10/11 but the titles are not exactly the same so A v T may be risky

    just bumping this up

    Its on all three of my Q

    so in theory that's 5 x 4 varieties 20 boxes of tea each or 60 in total - I think my OH would object and anywhere would I store it all without OH having a paddy :D.
    I would also have to make the switch to herbal tea in the daytime which I keep threatening to do.

    The supergreen lime one looks like it might be Morrison's only but I've got a £5 till spit so that's a start.
    Not convinced that the apg machine will see the teas as being the exact same as in both !!!!!! and sada but if they did it would be a good one to practice if you have not done HD or click and collect orders before.
