    Evening
    Had a quick catch up, bubbs great glitch, but I've been very good up to now, and not ordered.

    Little story for you all.

    Dh rang me today just as I finished work, said he couldn't find his car key? Followed by, I think I've shut them in the car :mad::mad:
    I had to go home about 3 miles, find the spare key then drive 17 miles going on the m6 then the m5 in rush hour traffic to take him the keys.
    He'd got the sat nav so I had to use the sat nav on my phone, and at the most important bit, someone rang :mad::mad: turned it off quick but I missed a turn on a roundabout. Just getting back to where I should have been same person phoned again.
    Started off again,bl00dy phone rang again :mad: dh "where are you" slightly raised voice I answered " I don't flipping know where I am,and people keep ringing me and the sat nav goes off" he replied with, I'll let you go then.
    When I finally got to him,yep he shut the keys in the boot.

    Then had to drive all the way back.

    On the plus side we stopped at mr a on way back and he bought 7 jars of pickles. and I've put them on my account. Well I did waste 3 hours of my time and loads of petrol.

    Edit to say, I didn't say flipping, but sounded like it.

    It seems that, although prices have changed on m.com, msm still has a lot of old prices showing for M, so just be aware if you are using msm. It makes no difference to me though, as I use msm to see the prices available elsewhere, as I just largely ignore the prices for M that msm shows anyway.

    You can see 'all' the new 'good' prices for M on the list I do anyway, once I have finished updating it. Somehow, I might even be finished from Monday by 1 o'clock tonight (if there is any such thing), judging by the rest I have to go through, which is about one and a half (and a bit) pages. I don't know how I manage it - there definitely is an invisible thing, that I cannot feel, that because I am having to go out tomorrow to check again, is causing me to get it all done in one day. I don't even feel anything though, that's the strange thing.

    I had twice as much as normal, despite only managing two stores. I am sorry that quite a number of items, which have been on offer for a number of weeks in M, and which are due to expire on 11th September, are now only just being put onto the list. They are on msm (hence how I know their offers have already been on for a couple of weeks) but it's a problem knowing which items to look for without already knowing what they are. I don't have these ranges in any nearby store. That's the problem in my being confined to my nearby stores for the past couple of weeks, due to having other tasks that needed to be done at home. I had a better store on Monday and it does seem that the store is bigger than my normal ones as it's again taken a full three hours in there (it's much less in my usual store) and I think that is going to be par for the course whenever I will return to there - it must be that I am getting details of all the ranges of items that I don't normally have in addition to much of what I normally do. (But I did also pick a week in which I expected a lot of change.) So, twice as much as before, despite missing stuff due to the car breakdown, I thought it would take forever to update it all but it isn't.

    Ok so said battery not in sideboard drawer. I didn't think it was. Mr TS as put it somewhere safe, battery drawer might have been an idea. ;)

    Have now tidied the drawer, but did take some unopened boxes out. :o

    Does anyone think 3.5 inch floppy disks will sell at my car boot. :rotfl:
  • What ever is comparing, it must be very cheap if it is being given as dog food!
    :D:D:D:D

    QUITE.... and I suppose you already know that vets recommend giving baby food to dogs with digestive problems as it is bland and easily digestable and 2 of my 3 dogs have this problem so although you may be surprised my dogs are happy and healthy thanks to their unusual diet

    So that every single post that I contribute to this thread is on topic I would just like to say I am an elite 11+ member and I hear the unjust silence of my opinions whilst I am shopping in supermarkets mainly. Just sayin.
