    It's £10 excluding VAT so you would need to add something to it to get the coins

    thanks for this, so an added £2 of socks or knickers :)

    just comparing the 2 websites this morning, not used Q very much

    I noticed though that Q has a very good cashback offer for Accorhotels for the next couple of days - and coins as well.

    All the talk of building houses, my dad built our house in Scotland took him 3 1/2 years and we lived on site in a very basic caravan. Things i'll never forget:

    The first winter in the caravan was particularly bad, the water pump cracked in two because the temp dropped below -20.

    When it was blizzard conditions we would get snow blown in through the vents.

    Waking up to ice on the inside of the windows.

    Mother successfully cooking Xmas dinner for 4 on the smallest of cookers :eek:

    Using the gas fire to make toast, best toast ever :D

    The constant drum of a generator, no electric on site :eek:

    An argument over windows and which side would open

    A hammer thrown in frustration at the car windscreen :rotfl::rotfl: I was the cause of that happening.

    Eating ice cream whilst sunbathing on the roof, was actually meant to be helping :D

    Moving in at the earliest opportunity kitchen/ bathroom hot water completed. Space!!!

    My parent being mortgage free :j

    what a lovely story to share and wonderful memories for you x

    Glorious day - am gearing myself up to cutting the clematis but as yet haven't ventured outside :o

    Missed a very very cheap Kipling Sale at 6am this morning :(:(:(

    But my Birkenstocks Gizeh arrived today :T
    Wasn't expecting the seller to send them because I found them for £20.99....
    Hours later they were £49.99 :eek:

    Good morning!

    It is so very hot down here on the south coast - little man has already been playing in the paddling pool to cool down.

    Has anyone bought the up and go milkshakes for COS? If so where abouts in your store was it? I tried by the sandwiches in the chillers and also with the milk but had no joy.

    Have a great day everyone :)

    Thank you. I'd presumed they were chilled so didn't think to look there.
