Hermes have been - it's a relief!

After the talk yesterday I checked on a parcel I have coming with them. Status " routed to incorrect depot " :rotfl: . It's my bikini bottoms & I can't go without them :rotfl: xx

Mhoc, there's free 400g bags of Royal Canin catfood on 10ways, and your area is well supplied with stockists - it is only available from certain participating stores.

ta for this, I will have a look

I got 4 boxes of cat food sachets that were on clearance at £1.25 from Asda before we went away - it was very fancy select meat but none of my three would even lick the gravy off the top :mad: so rather than having it cluttering up the cat food stash I admitted defeat and took the remaining 3 boxes back to Asda for a refund on Sunday so at least some hungry and grateful cats will be having finest cat food dinner this week :rotfl:
The left overs sachets from the first box will go to our RSPCA cattery

No you aren't the only elite with a real fire- I have one as well but..if it doesn't spark very well I sprinkle sugar on it and then draw it up with the paper...its a wonder we haven't set the house on fire!!
I don't have a real fire very often now as I also have central heating..but the real fire was a godsend when 5 years ago when we had loads of snow 2 weeks before xmas and the motor on the boiler packed up!!!

We also have real fires. Only heating in house. Linked to back boiler and radiators.
And I use the newspaper trick .never r tried the sugar will give it a go. Was this thinking of trying the lint from the tumble dryer .:o

Thank you - not found in stock yet but now saves me looking. It may be worry replying that under the picture it does state "Buy any product from the Fruit Bowl range" and suggest they should update to avoid others being disappointed.

Now the question is whether all singles are now off limits or whether you just hit on one not on the list (as others have claimed success). What did you buy please?

I have bought them in the past and been successful, and my DH bought 6 the day before with other shopping but I bought the same flavours as before 3 x raspberry + 9 x strawberry but probably my downfall was not buying any other shopping and I have never bought 12 in one shop before...oh well never mind

Good morning all....

Drawing out the fire with a newspaper,I can remember my Gran doing it...and when we have a fire we still use the same method if it wont "spark up"

Our fireplaces are slightly smaller than the one in the picture...but that could be me!

I'm surprised that no one else has said they do it nowadays or am I the only one who has real fires,surely there must be a few other elite who haven't converted to log burners!!!

still do it with a log burner, by leaving the door ajar

Most of that will be water weight it's almost impossible to put on that amount weight in that time frame. If you have a sluggish metabolism or you've damaged your metabolism by constantly under eating it will make weight gain easier



I have porridge everyday :D currently what I buy in T's have a saving of 30p per bag, so I buy a couple every time I go in :cool:
