    Me ; Thanks

    Half an hour later
    Dd ; Those trousers are lovely
    Me ; Thanks

    Instantaneously
    Dd ; No I really like those trousers
    Me ; Yeah so do I which is why I bought them

    The birthday freebies were in Martins weekly email last week....or the week before:D

    I mentioned them. There's Paperchase and patisserie Valerie etc.....will search tonight if no one has found them.

    Think I've missed E going off on her jollies....have a great time if I've caught you:T

    Thank you, I've done those two, I thought there was a huge list of all places that gave birthday freebies :rotfl:
    Ed's diner do a free milk shake as a birthday treat, in fact I'm going to enjoy my Dh's one soon! Also ate my cup cake from PV in M&s while enjoying my free mocha yesterday.

    All girls done in this morning's school, a small one. Quite a lot of histerics but that's because of the type of school it is. 94 to do tomorrow.
  • Is there anyone who wants 2 free tickets to see I Daniel Blake at the Vue in Cheshire Oaks on Sunday 25th at 10.30?

    My selection process what, do I like them...... yes...... buy the largest size and significantly more than needed to ensure that I can make throws, cushions and headboards as well...

    I will need to acquire a new sewing machine... but still an absolute bargain.

    How long is it since you gave up Snap?

    Since the 13th March - just over 6 months = ½ a year :j:j

    The friends we are holidaying with don't smoke so it's nice to not smell & have to scurry off to have a quick fag outside :)
    Just remembering to pack all my puffa spare bits for just in case it breaks, doesn't work, battery dies, coil needs changing... :o
