    Back from M&S, all the black and white vests were the code without the "L" at the end looked through every cardboard label. :o And fuchsia vests not stocked...

    Looked at the meal deal the 2 gastro meals were marked at £7 each so if bought with the £7.50 rose the 20% sparks discount should make it £7.10 a meal deal if it works or £7.20 if they only stock the 2 £7 rose wines...

    The coated fish are in a 3 for £10 like mhoc said, the most expensive being £4.50 pack so that would make 3 cost £7.30 by my reckoning if you have that 20% discount.

    Decision now which 2 offers to load to my card. :rotfl:

    Got to add 80p parking to my frock total. As soon as I start walking any distance my bloomin foot is still hurting, still no bruise though. :o

    Have you had your foot checked, Tiny? x

    Good evening.

    Check your CoS - sausages have re-appeared as a new one day offer, free from M.

    Just to note, I submitted a payment request for CoS late this morning and it has been processed this afternoon, so it seems it is not a midnight Wednesday cut off for claims (not this week anyway!) :).

    That will be a nice catch up for you Nanna and a great price for a flight.

    Popped into Marksies and collected all three parcels no bravery needed - just gave my name and they handed over 3 bags. Then across to SD as needed travel size Colgate Sensitive Pro Relief (fantastic if you have toothache so always carry one in my handbag). SD only place I know has the travel size costs £1.20 so not very MSE but then I spied 2 Dove sets so I redeemed myself and handed over £3 :rotfl:

    Someone is trying sell the sets for £11.95 on EBay :eek:

    Just opened the Gilets and I must say nice quality and cosy. Did manage to order the ballet slippers twice but then the banner disappeared that was lunch time - so I think the little glitch might have been fixed as the page layout changed at the same time too.

    Feeling guilty as just scoffed a reduced a Marksies custard filled choux bun so yum but I am now wearing it on my hips :(

    Turned really cold now - could do with some of that stew Nanna :D

    That will be a no. :o It is getting better as I'm not noticing any pain when I am walking around the house anymore, just when I have to walk distance. I got half way up the road before it hurt on Tuesday when I posted a letter. I would feel a total fraud walking in to GP with no sign of any damamge. :o But I thought I best not push it by parking for free and walking in from outside town. Probably needs a bit more time. ;)

    My knee on the other hand on the other leg is lovely slodges of black/blue now, I was going to give it a good scrub in the bath yesterday and realised it was the bruising had come out. :rotfl:

    Well best keep an eye on it. Just in case...

    When I fell, I thought the hand I landed on was fine, all day long it was fine except when I prodded at the palm it hurt. Got it checked most reluctantly, ended up with it 6 weeks in plaster as it was broken.

    I am taste testing the lightly dusted cod tonight - by some considerable fluke I was in my Marks a couple of weeks ago and good enough final reductions were happening :j - only about the 2nd time ever. One of the little treasures I got was the dusted cod :T
