    Just uploading a photo of Oz. I'm a little bit worried about him. He doesn't seem himself. Any cat owners around who might advise?

    I am also having a worry about our Ronnie - he seems to be limping today, firstly I thought it was the front right but just now it seems to be the back left leg ....
    Otherwise he seems fine in himself, I seem to think he has just overdone it. Yesterday he got himself into the deckchair and then out again and they are not the easiest things to climb in and out of.
    He is eating, drinking and weeing as normal
    If it was a wet day he would be sleeping it off on his chair but as the patio door is open he keeps getting up and limping around ...

    So I might as well buy the Amstrel and dark fruits in Morribobs for the multibuy?????

    Yes - I paid £19 for the two and it added £1 to my apg - if you've got a Morries nearby, cheaper to just buy the 2 for £16 :)

    Please can I ask about the smart water for cashback.

    I know it needs to be bought at Mr !!!!!!.com for COS but looking at Q clicknappy it seems to be Ok to buy it in Mr T - ordinary non online shop - or have I read that wrong ????

    Online only for the water.

    Definitely too much sun :rotfl:

    Fancy letting him wear a bow tie in this weather....

    I called in at the Spring Fair in the local village hall and couldn't resist him. Think I might call him Herbert:)

    Errant son did more emptying of his van while we were out - its like a tardis the amount of stuff the has come out of it including a vast brown box which he said was a defumidifier, no idea why.
    At least though he has rounded it all up and its now filling the guest bedroom so at least I don't have to look at it.

    (Yes this is the room that cost us £2 k to fully renovate a few years ago, now the worst sort of shambles ....)

    Neighbour was around for the 2nd time asking Errant son the move van - where ever he parks it, it seems to be in the way.
    I should really have got him to park it directly infront of our other neighbours front window this morning at 8.30 when he decided that again it would be a good morning to have a bonfire, billowing white smoke filling our garden again :)
    Deep sigh

    my nearest ikea is near on 3 hours away! I have a printed copy of my family card though....... if purchasing stuff does it have to be furniture? can't see me getting much in my corsa with 5 people in it lolol

    I bought cushions, a mirror and artificial flowers. Voucher taken without problem. I would just say take your time in the restuarant. DH was all hash bash as usual. Could have got a better deal. But we alive and learn
