Thanks Hampy, Mr TS has done all the decorating himself including a very good repair to the old kitchen door frame, it split quite badly when the latch I think it is called was put in. He had already painted it too, but you can't even see where he had to repair it now. :T

Cooker not arriving until 9th June but plumber said he has put a note on his phone to remind him we may be after him around then. :A

Waiting on the builders to fit a bespoke size door to where the electrics are I'm a bit cross that it hasn't been done sooner as it is a big eyesore as soon as you walk in from the hall.

Otherwise it is all done just need to source free standing shelving for both the built in cupboards/larders now.

Yes the James Martin sets were Ts direct, a combination of code and Ts boost. I didn't even have any idea whether they had actually arrived in one piece as left them sealed in the outer brown cardboard boxes. Could have been anything in there all this time. :rotfl:

It's all coming together, can't wait to see the finished pics. Will all be finished soon and you can then enjoy it all

96 jumbo sausages :eek: you might be on the wrong forum Scamps :rotfl:

I've been networking tonight and we should have dates and plans in place soon for upcoming meets that suit all needs (no scamps, we don't need jumbo sausages :rotfl:)

Hope PD is enjoying weegie land.....it's a wonderful place.

Your kitchen is going to look fabulous TS, well worth all the upheaval in the end.
We had planned to do our kitchen next (although not this year) but have now come up with the daft idea that it might be nice to have a little extension to house a utility room and downstairs shower room. It might even mean I would be able to have a second freezer...

:(Typical - I've picked two Kirsty's meals on which they've got M full price:mad::

1x Kirstys Cottage Pie with Sweet Potato Mash (400G) £3.00 £2.92
1x Kirstys Sausage And Sweet Potato Mash (400G) £3.00 £2.92

I bet this is because they haven't got the full range of meals in most of their Ms, neither have I in mine, and have had to piece them together, picking up three here, two there and their M, which may just be one of their six, that has both of these has full price SELs:(. The others may have been elsewhere and £2 prices at two of those trumped the £2 at the one that has the above two. I suppose (sigh) at least they have them at all in at least one of their Ms - I could have ended up with N/A or one or both and that would have been worse. Due to my Ms not stocking full ranges, I expected one or both of my meals to return N/A and for the entire shop to flip to a different competitor as a total failure but M does come out 'best' (not very good) overall and so I end up with £2.92 competitor price:(.

I'd have been better sticking to this one against W:
1x Kirstys Cottage Pie with Sweet Potato Mash (400G) £3.00 £2.25

(The Sausage with Mash is N/A against there.)

The Weetabix worked though, against M, as we already knew:
1x Weetabix Chocolate (24PK) £2.68 £1.50
1x Weetabix Banana (24PK) £2.68 £1.50

Actually it's not "typical", contrary to what I say at the outset, but it just feels like that and is a form of expression - I normally get correct price for M picked up.

So, I've lost quite a lot there and the meals not worth whatever price they ended up at!

Birthday list? What have I missed? Mine is 28th March can I join the list please?

Hello Susan, nice to see you, how are you doing? Hope your joints are holding out for you. I've had scan on left knee so just waiting to see consultant.
And I've not been home for over a year

Not too bad thanks AJ, knees still playing me up but waiting for 'lower leg exercise class' and pain relief seminar from physio department. Pain and mobility varies so much from day to day. I saw that you were waiting to get up home

300g (T) vs 345g (A) - wont compare.

I suppose, technically, it's the other way around - but you are right.
It's 345g vs 300g T. The weight range downwards is based on 10% of the A product weight - therefore 345g minus 34.5g = 310.5g, rather than it working from 10% of T's product and therefore being A products between 270g and 330g. It isn't - it's 10% of the A product weight either side so, with A being higher weight, the weight range actually runs wider, but the A product is too high weight and the T product therefore too low weight to fall within the range. I hope this clarifies that the weight range is calculated on the weight of A's product rather than that of the competitor.

If this were vs M, however, it's possible it might have worked as sometimes they seem to compare from something at M half the A product weight up to something twice the A product weight, even though it should only be 10%. That would be hit and miss as they usually get it right and use the 10% limit that they should - or else sometimes they miss things and don't compare them against M at all as they seem not to see that a different weight product at M is in the weight range.
