    Morning all - so hot last night had fan on most of night and shoved a damp tea towel over my feet - an old lady in Oz told me that trick but I did get to sleep.

    Can't get any access to my email accounts but rest of Internet no problem wonder what is going on. Shame as wanted to print off coupons as off to Ts in a mo.

    Hope you are all managing to keep cool - won't be wearing shorts today in case someone takes a pic :rotfl:

    If I posted a picture of my shorts you would think they were a cover for the BBQ or garden bench :o

    Surely it's daring enough to be brave enough to post a pic ;) I'm guessing not many will participate so I could win this hands down :D All it needs is a clever perspective ;)

    Where's TM she's always game for a laugh :D Still struggling with internet :(
    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

    I've not got a garmin, another make but each time I have to go to settings and make sure Bluetooth is on and pair the device up or it just wont upload - I think I preferred the old fashioned method of my old jawbone of plugging in to my phone twice a day



    I finally sorted it out. I had made an account when I downloaded the app but as a last resort I made anew account on the PC and now it works.


    No idea why it should make a difference but it did. The customer service was no help
    I have dyslexia, so get used to my spelling and grammar :)

    My app is called Zeroner - I was hoping to have it on the ipad as well but it just wont work with the ipad so I have to peer at the phone instead with a magnifying glass

    but its a very nice looking band, looks very smart and a very bright light at night so you can find your way to the loo in the middle of the night

    well it worked, the prayer to St Anthony, MOCs had migrated into the pink (very under used and of forgotten about MOC) folder so a few more odds and sods on the list eg Shopotize items

    Just got to get a food bank bag ready now, one job always leads to another around here ...

    The postie has brought a voucher for a free Alpro Go yogurt - cant remember where this was from but I think it was maybe one of the coupon pages avast objects to so I have to have them sent by post.

    so on my Mr !!!!!! shopping list goes 4 of these - I am hoping it will match the sada price of 4 for £3

    Mr !!!!!! sent me 50p MOCs for these (yes an actual Mr !!!!!! mailing) which I definitely had yesterday afternoon in my !!!!!! pencil case but needless to say this morning they are missing :(

    I also got the Green redeem MOCs - that was quick. I notice the Cornettos are on offer for £1 :D - I don't think sada sell four packs so these would have been safe to go on the list.

    and I've got 2 Princes Tuna filler free pack MOCS - don't think sada sells these

    so that would have been 7 very easy items and half the list written

    (also squeezy mayo on offer for £1 but that would have have had to go through separately)

    we are going in the direction of Mr !!!!!! as well today - I think I need the intervention of St Anthony, patron saint of lost causes ...

    Good morning.
    Morning luvlies, another hot one here. Not caught up yet, our Stanley Boy has had an accident :(. He's at the animal hospital now awaiting surgery this morning, he has a very unusual break in his left hind knee cap as they are usually transverse, his is down the patella. Our normal vet x-rayed him yesterday and have referred him to an orthopaedic surgeon as they don't have drills small enough to pin it.

    Bless him, he came in crying 10 days ago and was hobbling about. Took him straight to vets and they diagnosed a cat bite and put him on antibiotics and pain killers. Took him back a week later as still hobbling about but didn't appear to be in distress as he's been climbing fences and jumping on and off bar stools :eek:.

    We have cover up to 2k per illness which vet is aware of and thinks it will come in less than that. If not we'll just have to swallow. Can't get him out of my mind, he's my 4th baby :o

    Will let you know how he gets on :)

    Hope Hampy is ok, wishing him a speedy recovery.




    Its still nice and hot here, wind picking up and a bit of cloud coverage, I couldnt sit out in it at all yesterday, was too hot for me.

    Too "young" for a 30 something? :o:o

    They're a bit big, taken to putting the button through the first belt loop to keep them up. Still better than baler twine ;) I'm to tight to buy a new when these are not threadbare. :o
