    Still looking for good quality white men's sports socks, any recommendations appreciated! Not my idea of a present, but they've been requested so needs must.

    Not sure if it's been posted already, but the praline seashells in Lidl are already discounted, then the 40% comes off if you can find the Christmas magazine coupon, so I make it £1.07 for a 250g box :D

    TKMax have a good choice of good quality socks including sports & 'bamboo' ones :)

    The call you don't want DD2 in tears when you know she is meant to be in the middle of driving back on the motorway. :eek:

    She had a tyre blow out on M1, she is really shaken. Thankfully RAC got to her within half hour. But I'm nervous now until I hear she is back to Stafford safe.

    We drove car up to her yesterday after the mot repairs, and she dropped us to Stafford station and then over to Northampton to stay with a friend. She is not having much luck lately. :(

    It is scary. Glad you got her sorted now xx

    Tinyshoes, hope your DD is OK, it is a nasty thing to happen.

    SSM, I am so glad I do not have to shop for all your family, must be over 40 people you have to buy for...

    Thanks Sarah and Seren, she has just stopped at services, still 45 mins to go, she usually drives straight through. Still sounds shaken up by it all.

    And I still have that sick feeling at the moment. :o

    Too late to the party boys:rotfl:

    Thick frost here too.

    97mph winds recorded in the English channel last night. Imagine being out at sea in that storm:o

    Yes winds were strong here last night and this morning not a leaf left on the trees(need to buy a rake now:()
    The noise of the wind rain and trees it sounded like I was crashing around at see last night. Don't think the ferries stopped though:eek:

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)
