    Morning all! Just spent a productive half-hour claiming £15 of amazon vouchers from the Scottish tree people, and printing 15 soup coupons. DH is cleaning and re-painting the outside woodwork and garage door in the sunshine, so I'm taking the chance to nip to lidl for cheap bits and bobs for the week and then T to see how many coupons they'll let me do before the chuntering and tutting starts :D

    Good morning, Arthien please could you point me in the direction of the soup vouchers, is it a PDF if you've managed 15?

    I'm so pleased with our new bedroom. Going for non patterned stuff didn't really work but it's all pastel colours so it looks ok. I think dd was impressed with the revamp when she came last night. We have the joy of keeping all our clothes in our old room so there is no clutter.
    Ssm we bought this material for the headboard, not sure the orange is going to go with anything but hey ho! The bed is today's job, I might treat you to a photo later if it turns out ok :D

    Just out the door, it's on the new Covent Garden homepage. I just put my gmail address in, you can add dots at any point prior to the @ and it reads it as a new address but sends them all to your normal account. Hope that helps!

    the people who live in the Scottish trees don't love me anymore so they have only sent me one missive from the front in the last 10 months but this gave me enough so I got PayPal and Amazon and now the account is empty

    on TCB a nice little bit of cashback from Sophie cats pet insurance in August went to payable so I did an experimental conversion to an Argos card - I've never done this before so will it be a physical card that comes in the post?
    always useful to have an Argos gift card in readiness for the next bargain :)

    Fourp has an plane virus & is wrapped up like Mrs Tiggy Winkle.

    Watched The Lady in The Van last night :)

    Need to dig out autumnal clothing as still in sandals & cropped trousers :o We left here sunny & came back to Autumn :o
