    My running has moved up to a new level. I'm now collecting logs. Here's the start of my collection:)

    Mr TM asked why didn't I take a carrier bag out as well and then I can pick up roadkill too:o:rotfl::rotfl:

    I think he was joking_pale__pale_:think:

    Hello TM :wave:
    Been quiet without you:rotfl::rotfl:
    Did you manage to get all the uni stuff?

    I'm halfway there bubbs.

    Another job has been sorted too. We've had a cracked shower tray for yonks and decided it needed sorting. A new tray wasn't an option as the shower doors are curved and you can't buy the trays to fit now.

    Hit Homebase yesterday and spent £25 on a repair kit:eek:

    Time will tell as its possibly too early to say but it's a totally invisible repair. You mix hardener with filler and let it dry. Sand it down with wet and dry and then spray with a type of paint.

    Fingers crossed:)

    Funny, my strawberries are mushy this year too. Just pulled some picked 2 days ago from the fridge and had to ditch the ones on the bottom.

    Have just made a Victoria sponge, so going to combine that, the strawberries and some whipping cream for pud :D

    Not pleased for you at all E but glad that it's not just me, iykwim. It's frustrating, isn't it?:mad:

    Thanks bubbs.....and Lango:smileyhea

    I must look at this later:)

    I managed to get a couple of Dine in Marksies deals yesterday. Thanks TS:)

    The cashier called a supervisor before he would put them through so I guess they'd cottoned on to it.

    Nice just to heat something up for once and not have to think about cooking:T

    Got some cheeses today in P....underperky.....no ham and the block of Parmesan went through at full price so got a giftcard:)

    Got lots of Feta dated December 16, Stilton, extra mature cheddar etc
