    I did the cat one on behalf of my gang of three and got 83% - a very low score :)

    Sorted paperwork into the magazine files I got yesterday. Emptied a shelf on the Ikea bookcase square holes thingy. To file the files into.
    Loads of books for Charity shop :)
    And .... I found my stash of Pukka Pads :j:j:j
    Years ago lost when we got them for 37p (?) hidden away behind a TENS machine... Wedding photo albums (empty ..) and Thelwell cartoon books

    I am glad I am being a good example and inspiring you all to great deeds of tidiness :D

    (for one awful moment I thought you found a stash of pukka pies behind the bookcase :) :rotfl:

    From Waitrose today - so the challenge is now on as to what is the smallest item we can buy to get our free coffees. I can see lines of people going through the till each with a single banana :)

    "Our myWaitrose free tea and coffee offer is one of the ways we thank our customers for shopping with us - and we want all our customers to be able to enjoy a free hot drink when they shop with us in our branches.

    From 3 April, we'll simply be asking myWaitrose members to make a purchase* before collecting their cup at the checkout"

    that and Mr !!!!!! Orchard being ditched, what is the world
    coming to ....
