    Just been to sainsburgs, and when I went to get a 4 pack of carling (had won one a few weeks ago) there on the shelf, was one with the code on. So much for stock rotation.

    Hand in your badge :eek:

    Mind you, didn't even know they did them, don't have more than a cursory glance at loo rolls down there just to check there is nothing cheap.

    So I'm at the lottie, watching Mr AJ spreading his leaves and digging them in :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: It's still windy here :eek: :rotfl:

    I said I'd go with him but I'd take iPad and sit and watch him. I wonder if the pub next door know I can connect to their wifi from here :T

    The wind had dropped, that's why I came out again but it's cold now and blustery. Loads of leaves flying around :cool:

    yes very true, it turned out to be a huge fibroid 7lbs in weight but I had other problems including a hemaglobin level of 3 when it should have been 14 so I was very poorly. I had to have a hysterectomy and was off work ill for nearly a year. Being so ill the weight just dropped off so I didn't have to diet as such. I was in hospital for weeks and hospital food is awful so that alone helped with the weight loss lol!!

    )
    TS2, it has taken me a while to reply because I was in a very similar situation to you. After 10 days in hospital I was 2 stone lighter and had a colostomy and consultant was showing me photos of 2 people lifting the 'cyst' out of my stomach:eek:6 months later though the colostomy was reversed:T
    In the mean time I discovered (11+) Elite. Driving for the first time since op I stopped in a T's car park thinking they can't really get posh boxes of chocs for a 1p, then Martin came on the radio talking about it so in I went and bought 3!
    The rest, as they say is history, I now follow the elite thread avidly, have a hernia following the various 'repair' ops, put the 2 stone back on, am cancer clear and have retired.

    Of to catch up now.
    Had a productive couple of days.
    Was meeting 'the girls' ( a bit of a new thing and a couple of new friends) said we'd take nibbles and watch the rugby yesterday. I was 'chips and dips' and managed dips RTC at Mr T's and saved about £3. Same group also bought the OS shower gels of me - small profit of £2.75.
    I've bagged up a mountain of clothes for 'cash' and charity shop
