    Evening all, I wondered if I might ask for the collective wisdom of the Elite.
    My son is getting married at the end of July and the groom, best man, ushers and Dads are all wanting to get their suits from Next as they cater better for differing 'shapes' of bodies!!

    Does anyone know of any ways of getting some discounts from Next at all?
    Its all getting quite close now and decisions need making!!

    Thanks.x

    Mum discharged from hospital yesterday after a month in there. Bossing me about already :eek::eek:

    That is fabulous news, maybe you could tempt her with some of TM's lovely looking cake :)

    For all those with the hanging baskets, don't forget to feed your plants. I get mine in poundland (600ml). Providing you feed them once a week its amazing how your plants come on. I have picked up some real sorry looking plants, fed them for a few weeks and the results are amazing.

    Gift cards from Tesco or Morrisons maybe? How about hiring them which is much cheaper.

    Evening paw sniffers:D

    I'm in between cooking and next lot of house guests arriving:D

    A little story:)

    Over 10 years ago I lost a stone out of my engagement ring and put it away safely and haven't really looked at it since:o
    Although I hinted and hinted to get it repaired no one ever listened:rotfl: and I never got round to getting a new diamond fitted.

    I decided the other week to get it done.....rang a friend who knew someone in the trade and went today to look for it.

    I brought it out and showed it to DD who is home for the weekend, who proceeded to examine it. The stone isn't missing:T. It was just a piece of dirt:eek:

    She has washed it and cleaned it for me and I'm wearing it now. I have promised never ever to garden in it again.

    I feel so happy wearing it after all these years:)

    :eek::eek:Didn't OH notice?

    I wondered if any of the Elite can help with robotic vacuums? I had the Freetime Whiskers for 3-4 years and it has just given up after making very odd noises for some time. Our downstairs is entirely hard floors with rugs.

    I think they've come on leaps and bounds in recent years.
    Can anyone recommend a make/model at all?

    Many thanks.
