    We're in !!

    Son came home just after I posted and he quickly set to work with various bars and poles, managed to wedge the door open an inch or so at the top and with a 2 metre long concrete fixing bar he lifted the offending shelf and flipped it up in the air.
    One further flip and it was in a position where he could get his arm in a bit and hey presto.
    He was half thinking he would have to go through the loft and in through the ceiling it was that difficult !!!!

    Thank goodness for that Wendy :rotfl: I've been catching up as going out soon and thought I'd have to wait until my return to find out the outcome :)

    DS4 taking us for a meal, part early Mother's Day and it's his dgf birthday tomorrow. I'm starving already!

    Went to Mr A earlier today, no Funky Fishie salmon at 30p, what they did have was full price and it wasn't the same colour box that was shown on here yesterday, so I guess they are selling off due to repackaging, maybe.

    Catch you guys later when I get home, if I'm not too late :)
    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.

    Such an inefficient way of buying:mad:. Just 36p:( - the difference on the Clover not realised.

    Some good items not 10% cheaper but around the same price, but ruined by the Pepsi:( and Jaffa Cakes - should have bought individual Jaffa Cakes packs as they are 50p in M and would work out cheaper than a 2 pack at £1 if that comparison worked. Would have been better to have not bought the Rigatoni at all or bought it on a separate shop.
