I just thought I better confirm I am not Mrs Anon after saying I was having my first raspberry tonight.

She is right Anon it is rather nice wishing I had got more suns today now. :eek:

The only flavour I have not been able to track down is the elderflower.

I found elderflower today in T

I will say one thing to you......

......cheese.

I will respond with chocolate wine... and 4 goody bags I tried that wine yesterday and made my cheeks flush (of the face variety that is)

Night all, just got in from a 14 hour shift and need to pack and bathe before I leave at 6 tomorrow. No rest for the wicked

Had a priority moment today. Pack of 30 xmas cards £6.99 for free. :T

DD2 got a 2m roll of luxury wrap she didn't realise there were loads more rolls further back in the store she could have picked from.

Is that the new bag in the background TM? Have you christened it?

Yes been out tonight TS.

To what used to be a fabulous restaurant in Durham. But it's been marriotfied:(

The beautiful decor has been replaced with grey and mauve, the piano has disappeared as has the massive comfy sofas.

IKEA coffee tables are scattered around huge Sports TV's and the old marble columns stand silently embarrassed by the stainless steel lights with fluorescent bulbs.
The beautiful old cabinets full of local produce now advertise the spa facilities. The pool full of giant goldfish is now full of gravel.

We had coffee in the lounge and when I mentioned that mine was far too strong the waitress explained very carefully to me that it was because it was made in a machine with real coffee beans:o

What!


As opposed to pretend beans?

The most genuine thing was the gang of gorgeous hen party ladies in their latex lurex lurid little dresses. At least what you saw was what you got:o

Corporate interior design gone very badly wrong at the expense of heritage and tradition. I wondered what the mamas with student children, the academics sharing a bottle of wine and the happy weekend holiday makers thought of our lovely city:o

I will see your chocolate wine and raise you toffee vodka.

Actually will raise you rosehip whisky that will flush the cheeks. :eek: :rotfl:

Goody bags were half decent this year, well done on getting four. :T

Goodnight PD, sleep well. xx

Just having my first cidre. Raspberry flavour. :beer:

I got few more suns tonight there were loads left at my store tonight. :eek: Maybe they over ordered on previous weeks sales. Has everyone run out of room. :rotfl:

Had to try and explain to the whoopsie gang why I had cidre and wine in my trolley. I must have a reputation as they were asking me if it was cheap.

Oh TS I was down your way the other week for a few days visiting DD and C Heath A's....the staff didnt have a clue about how to do the cidre coupons nor apg's, in the end I left the shopping at the till whilst they were still umming and arrhhing about whether they could take any vouchers. Toscos's T Park..not much better but Poole A's didnt know what to do but figured it out as a group exercise and were lovely about it..what a palaver. B's sada..appalling...(but then they always were, always good for a gc though with all the out of date sels's) I'll be down again sometime so will have to do the rounds and see if they've learnt anything about coupons yet..
