    Have they got good expiry dates?

    You can pay more than that for just one packet of biscuits

    The couple of boxes I looked at as I thought about the date after buying them have OCT 2016 on them unsure whether they were from S or Ts though.

    Not brought them in from boot yet as no idea where I am going to hide them. :o

    One very kind eliter is sending me a gift in the morning. I won't say who as I don't know if they want to named.
    I'm very touched by the gesture though, it's a lovely thought x

    Oh dear mhoc hope they don't flood :(

    Their flat was first floor but reached by a set of stairs from 1st floor level opposite the river - this was their last flat before they moved south in search of fame and fortune - if they were still there now there would have been much fretting and gnashing of teeth

    But 2 of the other flats she has lived in and the house at Clifton green all are now in direction line with flood water

    Yes exactly mr Kiplings for 40p but Sainsburys own brand mince pies for £1 - that's what I could not figure out

    No that was odd wasn't it. :eek:

    I was tempted by the big gold xmas cakes down from £18 to think it was £5.60. But I picked a finest one up in Ts for £4 yesterday. :o

    Never got round to making one with last years sale cake mixes from Ts. :o:o

    Actually, and I'll get off this, I once had someone say one word - it's always individual words for me and not about context (unless the context is a worse one in which it merely makes it worse) - and I actually I blurted out "Don't say that - it's just made me feel extremely uncomfortable". And then she said, "What, you have a problem with [and then repeated the word]?" - and her second use also had another physical impact on me, severe heart went down feeling. People just don't think do they? If I've said don't say something (because I'm uncomfortable with it) and you then go and repeat it...?:mad::(

    Sorry, I'm not annoyed at this precise minute but, just, really silly of her. She knew - or ought to have known - when I'd say don't say it as I'm uncomfortable, that saying again would recommit the discomfort, whilst I was now already uncomfortable (so the second discomfort was actually even more severe than the first) and make me feel even worse. The word was generally considered mild. Well, not very mild at all as I experienced it. Not mild when in front of a child. Actually more severe on me than the most offensive words of all. Which have never yet caused me any offence since no-one ever uses them generally.

    It's all about context, of the social situation in which you are in (whom is around you etc.). And, sorry I'm black and white about this so, sometimes, there are situations in which everything (of that 'kind') is off-limits for me and sometimes there are situations in which nothing is off-limits (except perhaps actual racism). It does not matter whether something causes you a problem or not - the whole point is that, if it causes me a problem, then you should be saying it (or sometimes, even suggesting it - that can be even worse for me) around me in that situation. Sorry to be rather selfish, but it's about protecting my own physical integrity rather than making me seriously uncomfortable.

    Anyway, I dispute almost anything that anyone could ever argue on this sort of thing:rotfl::rotfl:. Unless you have evidence to back up every assertion, then I'm not going to accept it:eek: (no matter how many people argue, or say they hold the same opinion, as you do:rotfl:).

    Boooooo

    B00ts awarded correct (ie non-gllitchy) points to our account for the order I collected earlier :(

    You can join the list with me and bubbs then aau. :(

    Can't make head or tail of why it worked for some.

    I did the one order around 8.30am. Am I right in thinking those that did shed loads of orders had some honoured. :o Or was going for home delivery the answer. :(
