  • Good morning everyone. I know its been a couple of months since I logged on (:eek::eek::eek:) so thought I would just come and say that I hope everyone on here has an amazing Christmas.

    I hope to start getting back on here more after Christmas - at least when I have my surgery at the end of Jan I'll have a lot more time! :rotfl:

    Things are going fantastically for me, still have to pinch myself as can't quite believe it. Instead of being my usual miserable self about the new year, I can't wait for 2017 as I think its going to be incredible. Lots of change, and I can't wait.

    I hope everyone is well. I'm sorry, I have no clue what is going on although I did see on facebook that altojack has been poorly, so I hope you're doing better now. Thanks to everyone that has sent me messages, and to bubbs for keeping in touch. You're all wonderful. :A

    I do love Robbie....but I'm afraid he now joins the "misheard lyrics" list for me...I heard "i love my life"....and was convinced he was singing "wife"....

    even though I'm now corrected it will forever remain the wife song!

    I think he is probably marmite - you either love him or hate him and I am in the love him category.
    A lot of the others have gone to look very old and scraggy, a suppose an indulgent and/or degenerate lifestyle does not help
    - Sting looked ancient on Saturday night (I will be castigated for saying that :) )


    Ronnie Williams is almost (but not quite) a local boy. Someone from scouts mum used to be his mums cleaner :)

    I wondered where you had got to, going AWOL like that :rotfl:

    We are all desperate to know how well the new love interest is going :D

    When I was a little girl I heard the song "Leaving On A Jet Plane". I always thought it was about leaving a place called Onajet Plain :rotfl::rotfl:

    Good Morning :wave:

    Is Robbie Williams short of money ? I am sick of seeing him on tv doesn't help I don't like him lol.

    Was cold when I took our Poppy walkies she didn't mind seemed more dogs had been walking her route. She couldn't get round for sniffing and weeing so our walk took longer :cool: :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    God help us on afternoon walkies with my baby girl :A

    There seems to be quite a few people who are making a re- appearance after an unexplained absence. For instance the programme about Lenny Henry last night - I had a look at Wikipedia to see where he has been for the last few years and he does not seem to have been doing very much - I know they get loyalties and repeat fees but apart from that he seems to be living on fresh air sandwiches :)

    I like listening to him but don't like watching him.

    I really like Party like a Russian but not the video.

    Marks - have a look at the tinned food section. I found yesterday with red RTC SELs

    M &S tropical mixed fruit 425g now 20p :D
    2 different labels 01/2018 dates
    barcode 0809344

    pineapple chunks 40p

    Good for getting to your target if you have conditional spends to use up.
    Also if you drain the syrup off and rinse in cold water, an interesting edition to smoothies or with the nice vanilla collective yogurt if you a fortunate to have an Asda that sells it.

    and for food banks of course

    Good morning all....


    present wrapping today for the extended family whom I will deliver to maybe tomorrow or Thursday...

    Interspersed with the wrapping will be ironing...oh the joys!!!

    Have a lovely day all.

    Be careful LEJC - I have visions of you ironing gifts and wrapping things in clothes.
