    Hi Hampy :wave:
    Its lovely but i did get stuck in the mud last night:eek: coming out my sisters, there is a little car park but as its in the country very muddy , so nice white car with mud splats now:rotfl:
    Well, it's all done. My parents surprise ruby anniversary party was a huge success and everyone enjoyed themselves :j :j

    Lots of food and everyone took tubs full of food home and still there's tons left over :o it'll just end up in the bin because there's nothing salvageable from it, it's been out too long :o:o

    Lots of laughter and fun and cuddles with my 7 month old nephew who bawled every time whoever was holding him sat down :rotfl: a game of Mr and Mrs for the olds, a chat about old times, playing number one songs from everyone's birthday and my 13 year old nephew completely engrossed in Fraggle Rock :D

    Glad everything went well and your mum is doing well:T:T:T
    Morning all :D

    No I was wondering myself cjj as I wouldn't mind another voucher. The bags are worth over £4:T

    Oz loves them. Well he loves the ones for young virile, handsome,fertile, short haired males. But I've bought him the Old man flavour this time:rotfl:

    There's loads to choose from:)

    Haha I would need the pensioners version although Piper still thinks she is a kitten and as she was a rescue from a ferile mother she is still kitten size :rotfl: xx
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    Well it's in the oven:T

    And how easy to make. You needed to add 175g butter, 3 eggs and grated orange zest. I also added a spoonful of black treacle as it looked a little light. The fruit was well and truly soaked in brandy ......nearly knocked me out when I opened the packet:rotfl:

    It's in the oven for 3 hours so I hope I've made the best guess with oven temperature.
    The most exciting thing is the little Christmas tree and star templates which I will put somewhere safe for next Christmas, promptly forget about them and then chuck them out in July as I won't have a clue what they are for:rotfl::rotfl:

    :rotfl: nutter.

    My brother turned 50 last Friday, so I've made a cake for him. Also invited him round for a roast. In a typical fashion one of my other brothers is now coming round with my sister in law and nephew. So right now my house smells of lamb, mint, rosemary and cake :) I'm almost expecting my other two brothers to turn up now. Seems like that sort of day :rotfl:

    That is a very good question and one I'm now struggling to find an answer for..

    Can anyone help?

    When I was printing out the Optiwell one yesterday I spotted it in my inbox.....there were actually about 10 of them.....but all with the same barcode:o. All to be collected from the same pet store.

    And now I can't for the life of me remember where they came from.

    A search on 10 ways has the old voucher which I remember using last year before Christmas and a search on Hduk (yes I know zippy:D) found nothing.

    I will look again tonight cjj when I have more time but can anyone else help?

    Mhoc?

    Thanks

    Good morning Sunday :hello:

    Rather overcast but milder here this morning. I slept quite well last night, lights out just after midnight, woke about 4am. Went back to sleep quite quickly for a change :D. Unfortunately I then slept until 10.40am :eek:

    I hear that some of the Elite had snow over night :eek: but its cleared away now. Does this mean there is more to come I wonder as the Sky here is white, no break in the clouds at all :cool:

    Have a lovely Sunday whatever you are doing :)

    Hugs to the poorlies or low in spirit, my thoughts are with you all x

    Off for a catch-up, see you later 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.

    From e-metro, so probably in paper edition.
    Page 21, 3 Subway vouchers, most interesting one is Free 6 inch Breakfast Sub when you buy a regular hot drink (341ml) until 11am. Valid until 19/3/17.
    Two can dine for £6.99
    £3.49 meal deal.

    Anyone know price of a “regular” hot drink? I am assuming £1.20 to £1.60???
    I tried this today, the Metro vouchers say only for London stores.

    Luckily my Subway had their own breakfast deal vouchers, sub & drink for £1.50 so went for that.

    The hot drinks in mine were £1.60.

    Up early for the kettle skirmish :o

    and Fourp is coming with me :eek::eek: :T

    Admittedly he has been terribly 'down' & a struggle to get any conversation from him :(
    I think it is to do with the house completing next Friday, all ties will be cut with South Wales :(

    It's a massive piece of his life coming to an end Snap, he'll never be setting foot 'home' again. He'll come round sweetheart given time :o. Give him a hug from me and a huge squidgy one for you xx
