If you are needing stuff at B and Q have a look at this money off voucher..on hotdeals : http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/10-off-50-spend-b-q-1-29-2510050

thanks for this - I will have a look for this.

now you say this it reminds me I might gave been sent a conditional spend from B&Q to print off. They started off sending me ones like £2 off a £10 spend but then it suddenly escalated up to £50 spends so I've sort of ignored the last email - thinking I'd not spend that much at once but now I am in a painting mood ...

your oven is immaculate, mine is the black hole of Calcutta
if I looked on ao I could probably get a new oven without melted control knobs and a clean oven and I really need to do this before Christmas.
OH has to upgrade the wiring to the oven, it randomly triips out - it should have been done when the kitchen was put in 20 years ago ...

very brave ditching your cook book collection. I have culled a few but I am emotionally attached to most of mine - the ones I used when the offspring were little and cooking was a vast part of the daily routine ...

Hi folks, not been around much this year, seeing lots of new faces, and known ( not saying old) ones.
Will try to keep up, haven't been Elite shopping for a long long time, think I lost my mojo somewhere.
Maybe reading up will bring it back.

Hello lovely to see you, hope you are ok?

I think they have stopped giving the Diamond discount on paint when its in a multibuy offer - and I also thought their discount day was Wednesday, not Tuesday (well, its Wednesday in my local).

thanks for this - I wonder why I had Tuesday in my head ????

its a pity about the diamond discount not working

and the Duluth paint chart is annoying as well, none of the colours quite matching what was originally painted in the kitchen or bathroom
