    Morning!

    Having a lovely time in London. Airbnb on the river, just down from Hammersmith Bridge. V nice. Would think about staying again.

    We have wandered around Fortnums and Liberty yesterday looking at the Xmas shops. Portabello market and lovely Notting Hill today. Finished the day with a stroll along the Embankment and a strange installation at Tate Modern!

    DH did find some vinyl records to buy, but other than a tree ornament in Liberty, our only spends have been food. (All discounted one way or another!). Although our meal at Jamie's last night was not cheap, even with £10 off!

    It's so warm, I have carried my coat in my bag! DH and his FitBit keeps me informed of the many miles we have walked. Keep having to sit down though. Aching all over, and my back keeps seizing up and my knee hurts. Poor old dear!

    Itching to buy the M&S meal deal and some wines in A.:( Meeting up with DD at some point today.......can I get her to carry it?:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Can't sleep tonight - DD1's boyfriend involved in a car crash yesterday. The roof had to be cut off the car to get him out. They think he has broken his back. Was going to have operation last night but now probably today :(

    I hope he is ok and things are sorted quickly. All the best.

    Lizzie.....I'm so sorry to hear this. No wonder you couldn't sleep. Your mind must be racing. Things always seem so much worse in the early hours:o You will be worrying about DD too and how she will be feeling.

    He will be in the best possible hands now and I hope today brings some positive news for all of you.

    It was reported that the meal deal had stopped "working" house elf

    Sounds like you've had a great weekend. Isn't it weird how tired you can get just walking around:rotfl:

    Morning Seren,

    I never seem to get the chance to thank you for your lovely morning pictures. It's always a cheery start to the day:T

    Well I was in Argos yesterday and it was as if they were giving stuff away. I stood in a queue of about 10 with all tills open. I anticipated all sorts of problems with my Zeek voucher codes but they went through no problem.
    My shop came to £100.08 as I'd added on one of those 10p items to get me over the £100 mark but I only received a £5 gift voucher. When I mentioned it, the manager came over and gave me the other £5 without any problem but I wondered if the 10p item was excluded from the deal.

    Anyway I now have £10 to spend before 1st December and there's nothing I need:o
    Mr TM uses those 2032 little round batteries in his Power Meter so I might just stockpile some of those:)
