    Evening all :)

    Life is a bit dull shopping wise now my local co-op has shut for refit. I did pretty well out of their clearance though so mustn't grumble. No point going to A for cider because I know full well the shelves will be cleared because the local rag published it online as well.

    My lovely asbo cat got attacked last night and has a chunk missing out of her ear :( the cat that attacked her is one that lives up the road but the owner keeps it outside - it's not allowed in the house and has a box outside with food and water dishes on top of it. My cat was terrified when she came in and it took ages to get her to let me clean her ear up so she wasn't dripping blood everywhere :( she seems better today and has gone out but she won't go much further than the greenhouse at the bottom of the garden

    Evening all, and Bubbs!
    I'm struggling to keep up with the thread just now, so positive thoughts to those of you who need them.

    I think I either hit the heights of moneysavingnes or the low of miserlyness today.
    We are going on holiday to Zante next week and only taking 1 checked in bag:eek: I have spent 10 mins squeezing toothpaste from a half used sample feebie into the other half used sample freebie!!!:o
