    Thank you for all your kind thoughts for Mr TM. You are really a lovely lot:smileyhea:smileyhea:smileyhea

    He has added to the woes of the NHS today:o I won't tell you what happened exactly as even writing it makes me queasy:o
    He has broken several bones in his hand and has an appointment first thing tomorrow to see if it will have to be pinned.

    Fortunately there was a doctor on the team ride and she had him bandaged up pretty well. A team mate took him to hospital and DD and I went and collected the car.

    He's now dosed up on painkillers. I don't think either of us will get any sleep tonight.

    So i googled it and she signed up, but asked me today if you get a card or something, said i would ask, they didnt end up going yesterday , they had afternoon tea instead somewhere else:D
    You can join in store think it costs £10....or you can join using £4 of tesco clubcard vouchers...but this takes longer as clubcard have to send you a paper token, then you have to send it off to dobbies head office, then you get sent the plastic card.....but for 24 hot drinks its worth it. My store allow any hot drinks, always get large... including luxury hot chocolate :D (sorry matty!)
