    Hiya

    Did you get the promise of the '£5 Gesture of Goodwill'? I was wondering how this materialises.....is it a paper voucher posted to us or an online code? Does anyone know?

    Thanks x



    I received a £5 homebase gift card in the post today x
  • Hope you enjoyed your break away streetlights :)

    Hope you are feeling better soon nanny x

    ok here is what I got. usually I price the bottles up but nothing I've googled so far has been in stock anywhere but I think they are drink now bottles - at least it will save my more exotic expensive ones

    it is a gamble with them but usually the boxes you get are good enough - never had bad boxes before, everything is years old.
    the NZ and South African should be ok and the champers but the nameless Spanish and French will go back plus 4 others, not sure which yet

    oceans edge Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough - New Zealand 2013
    Wairau cove Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough - New Zealand 2014
    chilano Sauvignon Blanc 2013
    vin de France white wine (10.5%) x3
    Spanish white wine (11%) x5

    and randomly
    champagne Nicholas feuillatte brut

    The Wairau one is one of my favourites and also the Dino...had them both a few times...the dino rose is nice too
