Went to do my third swipe of 6

Sainsbobs 20p items:

McVities Trio 6 pack 20p

Italian tomato puree (tin) 15p

Bisto HobTop Chicken and wild mushroom (sachet) 20p

http://www.bisto.co.uk/our-range/made-simple-hob-top

I found Sacla Intenso tomato and mascarpone in little jars for 20p barcode 8O01060001459

Both stores I've been today had end of aisles with various RTC and bent tins etc - our local store seems to enjoy moving this section around so we have to hunt for it

(Just a suggestion but it might be useful if everyone puts their Sainsbobs finds tagged onto one message - its easy to screen shot it then and then email it to yourself

My 8 year old DS has brought home a pumpkin plant from school, what do I do with it? It is about a foot and a half in size, do I just repot it into a bigger pot and let it get on with it?:o

Good morning
My son has his uni graduation in a months time and I need some advice on what to wear. Shopping fills me with dread ever since my stroke, as I am not very good with crowds/busy places and would do anything to avoid them.
I'm in my comfort zone, in my walking trousers out with my dogs!

I am leaning towards a dress (knee length) with with either wedges or low heels.

I am 5' 3" about weigh around 11 stone (shocking)

38" bust, 28" waist , hips 40"

Any ideas would be most welcome

I've done 2 graduations and a passing out parade - black trousers and a glamorous top would be possible.
There is a lot of standing about so make sure your shoes are comfortable
There is also a lot of sitting about so make sure if you have a dress you are happy with the length - some dresses look great when you are standing up but they ride up when you sit down
Mind you the focus is on the graduates so as long as the mums and dads look very smart I think the parents are wall paper

Are you going for a nice meal afterwards?

Needs to go in the soil in a sunny spot.

Needs also acclimatising to the outdoors if not already done, just keep pot outside for a week before planting in the ground.

Very glad you have had the phone call finally - I can imagine the buckets of joyful tears poured today

Don't they do things a long winded way. OH has had letters from his DR surgery, enough to put anyone into a panic, you then gave to ring for an appointment and reception ask whats for and you have no idea. Then finally you get your appointment and it's some long forgotten blood test you had no idea what it was about has come back clear - why did someone just ring and say that instead of wasting so much time and effort

At least your kitchen has been scrubbed

And you can count today as another birthday!

Phew, phew and double phew is all I keep saying, well and a,little stronger too.

Last week when I went to my follow up appointment with my consultant my pathology results weren't back. I questioned as to whether that was a bad sign and I was unnerved by the over reassuring response I received. Yesterday afternoon I missed a call from the hospital and the voicemail said nothing to worry about but can you ring us back, I've heard those words before which really meant you have cancer. You have to ring an answering machine and wait for them to ring you back which they didn't do until 9.15 this morning but thankfully the good news was that everything they have tested has come back clear.
That has by far been the longest five weeks of my life and definitely the longest 18 hours!
So to say I have had an emotional morning would be an understatement but on a positive note my kitchen cupboards are extremely tidy.
It brings it all home to you though, we all have our own problems some of us chose to air them , some of us chose to keep them to ourselves can we put the last few days behind us and do what we do best, glitch and save a fortune.
I apologise to you nerfdad for what I said yesterday but I echo what others have said, please stop with the snidey remarks it isn't nice.
Phew xx

just seen on HUkD 6 Large Free Range Eggs 50p picked some up last time when they were £1 for a dozen and they were huge. Might be worth a gander if you're passing:rotfl:

Nice to see you posting DeeDee - use to love the way you posted a glitch - it used to take me a while to grasp what you meant then the penny would eventually drop. Not that I was in a position to avail of as A's was nowhere near me until recently.:cool:

Time to shove the washing back out - black clouds are gone now sunny and breezy.

Lovely to see you still posting Rockingham
:rotfl: I still confuse with my poor glitch explaining skills somethings don't charge :embarasse

Hopefully there's some fab better than free glitches soon and you can make up for those u missed out on

Thanks, it has been outside for a little while at school but I have set it outside here. We have a good sized garden but the soil is awful and it is a slugs paradise, but I'll try and find a decent spot.
