    Only 2 of the 20 odd ones I ordered have the sizes written on them, and they weren't the sizes I ordered.

    Yes .....that's all well and good but do they fit you?:D

    Hello Everybody. Arrived back in the U.K. early this morning, popped into the M&S to pick up some milk,butter,bread and some bacon.

    Had a frightful ride home the long way round in a black cab :eek: think next time I will book a mini cab. Always supported black cabs but unfortunately this idiot seemed to be annoyed that it was a short journey - still cost us £35, he chunked our baggage in. DS had his walker with him so it was obvious that he had a disability but left me to put that in the cab and drove off without giving us a chance to put our seat belts on. So we are trying to clunk click as we were been thrown around the cab with a wheeled walker doing its own thing :rotfl:

    Got indoors made a nice cuppa and a bacon sarnie which cures most things and discovered the amount I had actually paid in Marks :eek: definitely needed a lay down after that.

    Hope everybody is doing ok, will have read back when cases are unpacked. Any good glitches on the go at the mo - can't wait to get back to it all :rotfl:

    xx

    Welcome home Rockie, what a sour git of a driver you had. I'd be tempted to report him , the swine :mad:


    Well, after I updated iPad and cleared history and cookies, I couldn't get back in here yesterday, forgot my password but I'm now sorted again with a brilliant new password that I'll never forget.







































    Until the next time :eek:

    Braveheart you so make me laugh, I'm loving your posts, thank you :T

    After having my blood taken for testing some results are back and have given me some answers. My Folate levels are low so now taking Folic Acid, I thought they were just for pregnant women :eek:

    I've also got a deficiency in Vitamin D, so there we have it for now, im having a weekly dose for that as we don't get enough Vit D from the foods we eat, it's all down to lack of sunshine. Our winter sun doesn't give us any Vit D :eek:

    Hugs to my poorly Elite members, or if you're feeling low ((hugs)) xx

    Off for a coffee to try to keep me awake to watch CBB tonight, see you all later :cool: xx
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.
