    Where is TS? hope she is ok, her hands wernt good last week :(

    I'm ok thanks bubbs but I'm already in bed. :o

    The pain has been a bit draining I found online a series of hand exercises so trying to help myself.

    I know it's partially self inflicted with the scrubbing of the awning, Mr TS did help with the roof on Saturday but think my caravanning days are numbered. :(

    I have been reading and up to date with everyone's news :D.

    No glitches for me as I can't trust myself to remember to use the APGs but glad you are all making the Xmas cakes this year. :

    Jacob's Crackers Biscuits for Cheese (250g) £1.00 WAS £2.43 MORRISONS
    http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/jacob-s-crackers-biscuits-for-cheese-250g-1-was-2-43-morrisons-2542312

    When was this £2.43 then? As far as I know, it's been £1 for the last month or so - with a potential going to £2 for a week and then back again two weeks ago.

    Voted - not cold but it is a good offer. Apart from me getting M Signature Crackers for Cheese earlier at 38p:rotfl:. It will be really lucky if anyone has those in their M now - I can tell you they have gone from the store where I originally found them (but, as ever, like everything, you never know if they lost one in the storeroom and bring it out, found, several months later:rotfl:) and nearly all stores now (that seems to be barring any temporary OOS on the shelves) have the new "The Best" (in other words, the worst) version at expensive price!

    Anyone else playing Quidco's Santa tracker game? I've just had to look on Hukd for today's answer, really stumped me :o

    I'm assuming there were 2. I got the first one but didn't have a clue about the second

    Forgot to say this morning, thanks bubbs for bringing the bee hive thingys over. I bookmarked the page and managed to get some bits before they went out of stock again - even though they're now charging for delivery, still a fab price. Got my dad a bee hive and bee and bug house along with the ladybird feeder and squirrel feeder. BOGOF is mix and match :beer: the ladybird and squirrel feeders are still in stock. Don't forget quidco.

    Sorry to hear that your hands are still paining:o

    I know you find it hard to type so don't bother answering....but does a hot water bottle help?
