    What a fabulous read back. My head is buzzing:T

    Can I update you on my fleas?

    Just went for a swim tonight and after about 40 minutes in the water, I broke out all over in hives. I'm beginning to think it's never been fleas at all....but a reaction to chlorine. Been reading up on it and it says it's worse underarms, groin:eek: and it generally followed the line of my cossy. I thought it was just a coincidence last time but think I've found the answer..........just taken an anti histamine which has helped a lot.

    It was fleas I tell ya :p :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I wasn't implying you should steal the bags and I didn't realise that would be the case I didn't even need a bag as I had my own but the lady in front of me pointed it out and I just repeated it. That will teach me to keep my mouth closed.

    Don't worry about it, I'm sure that several on here have scanned a wrong barcode on a multi pack of something or similar. Lessons are learned and sometimes we get embarrassed by it but soon get over it.

    Keep posting Redroof :)

    Can't hang around, got a visitor staying over tonight. I hope I don't keep them awake with my coughing :eek: :cool:
    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.

    Mhoc, I enter loads of competitions on Facebook but don't get endless notifications as a result. I have won quite a few prizes and don't think I've missed any. Generally they will either tag you in a post and ask you to get in touch if you're a winner or they will message you directly. Occasionally if there are lots of small prizes they might just post a list rather than tagging so these could go undetected. There are groups on Facebook you can join such as Winners Circle who keep a look out for these kind of posts, so a couple of times a week just do a search on their site for your own name :)

  • Couldn't come on today as I actually had to do work in work today, and the boss can see my screen when there.

    I have free wifi in work so looking on my phone might be a solution but the screen is so small. I have been looking for forum readers but struggling. Does anyone else use one?
    I have dyslexia, so get used to my spelling and grammar :)
