    Morning luvlies, beaut day for gardening :)

    If anyone still has the LM Mocs for £1 off any product from their website page they were doing few weeks back (unfortunately not doing them now), price for sausages and mozz burgers has just dropped to £1 in M making them free :D

    I spotted these this afternoon in Morries and they had £1 yellow ticket up, but still went through till at £1.97 so anyone getting them, check as they go through the till.

    Also the chicken style paella had SEL of £1.00 and that went through at full price. I think that one must be store specific because it isn't showing any offer o mysupermarket.

    He finishes on Thursday at dinner time :D Been a funny old year for school hols. Easter was weird as they had easter bank holiday followed by 4 days in then 2 weeks off.

    Am sure she will settle, she went right back into her shell on the visit as the other kids were there but I think she will get used to it and do really well :)

    Enjoy your hols :D

    I think it will, high school too much for her. Home ed allowing her to completely isolate herself. Anxiety is a horrible thing to watch someone you love suffer with. The school she is going to is a happy medium and all of the kids have been where dd2 is now so she will get lots of support.
