  • Good morning.
    Thanks Bubbs I'll add that to my total then. When do I open my tin? I might do it today, it's another thing I'm glad I've done and I will buy a new tin today in preparation for next year.

    So do we think we can combine the meal deals with the 25% off in M&S?

    I was thinking couple of meal deals with 4 more bottles of wine, I do still have 20% off rose on my sparks, which worked last week with another sparks offer of 20% off for buying 3 bottles of wine but that offer has now expired.

    I know I should have kept my frock on but I wanted to test the 2 offers as T&C's said could not be used with other offers. It didn't work quite how I hoped as took 20% off and then 20% off that, so not a total of 40% off.
    know the wine is discounting the 2 for £12 and 25% off as some1 who knows i like offers told me, but seen as though i don't drink it, i didnt bother but would be really good value with 4 meal deal with wine then 2 more esp if they were 2 for £12 as well. and if u have sparks offer it would be amazing.
    will c if any1 posts they have tried and will tell my parents, who do drink wine.

    What about Tenerife... there are so many Brits there at Xmas it has a good atmosphere. x
    love tenerife, not finding the right price at the moment, but will hold out. will post when i get booked.
    have found out if i go for 3 weeks its cheaper than 2 weeks, but think i would be ready for home after 2 weeks. even though i love sunshine.

    Our cats have a square mat next to the TV with a red circle in the middle and thats where they eat their dry food and also at night a dish of wet food so no one starves in the night Also in this corner is their water bowls and a cylinder biscuit tin for cat food
    Treacle cat has had a bite on his back which OH has been doctoring and while Treacles head is in the dish I give the area a good squirt of vet grade aloe vera - its our cure all and it has saved us numeous trips to the vets. This is also kept in cat corner in readiness as someone is always coming home battle scarred.
    When i was in the garden this afternoon i scratched myself on a bramble so i just gave myself a good spray on the arm of the vet grade aloe vera - if its pure enough for cats its good enough for humans.
    So tonight Oh had a look at Treacles back and i went to spray it again. OH said let me look at what you are spraying - it turned out to be not aloe vera but an identicle squirt spray of Ohs for cleaning computer screens - the aloe vera was in the log basket :eek:
    Yes it was Oh who had dumped his computer screen spray down just anywhere :mad: in the middle of cat corner.
    So for days Treacle has had his wound sprayed with computer screen spray as has my scratched arm this afternoon.
    if i wasn't so mad at Oh it would be amusing :rotfl:

    Just wondering whether the aloe Vera has improved your computer screen:rotfl::rotfl:
