    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

    Oh sorry to hear about asbo:o is she feeling better today?

    Wondering if Westie will get moved today too

    Another gorgeous day in Durham. I've got wall to wall blue sky here:)

    Great so many of you got some bargains down the drinks aisle in A. I never came up for air yesterday...wondering if it's worth me taking a look today:think::think:

    Anon (when you come on) - Just before I went on my holibobs, I saw a post where you mentioned an app I believe where you can get free Nowtv months. Was I imagining it, and if not, could you give me a quick run-down please. :bber:

    Good morning. Sorry for the long post!

    The app is a game called Snatch where you can win prizes by collecting parcels (alternate reality - like Pok!mon). You collect them either by "seeing" them on a map and colecting them or Snatching them off people who have already collected them :D. I have found during the day I lose most that I collect as I am too busy to keep an eye on my phone to defend them :(. The parcels have 6 hours before they are safe :eek: ... but as I am a bit of a night owl, that has proved a good time to Snatch parcels when many other players are asleep :cool:.

    So far I have won NowTV Cinema 2 month passes (sorted my family out :A), NowTV Kids passes, a cocktail, Sky 1 day pass and lots of coins to keep me going in credit. They have variousprizes including NowTV, cash, gaming consoles, holidays, Amazon vouchers, flights ... there are no gusranteees what you will win but once you get used to Snatching you win a minimum of 50 coins / I won plenty of coins and another NowTV Cinema pass over night :).

    You can recommend your friends to get 500 virtual coins each to get you started (and keep adding to your balance by recommending - an existing player can recommend new) so although you can pay for in app purchases, I haven't (and wouldn't! :A).

    App available on iOS and Android.

    :)

    Glad Emily will be safe & you have a nice weekend 3Dogs :A

    Got everything sorted yesterday :D Know how to turn the lights on & off in shop & to say no to Mr weird & his harmonica :rotfl:

    Today I've got to gallop to Ts to buy essentials early.
    Unsure if Sister will be discharged today, so if she is still in, I can catch latest train to get there at 12.30 :)

    Tomorrow I must get to Bank before noon, & pick up my prescription as down to last tablets :eek:

    Blooming hectic life at the moment, but at least I sleep deeply from exhaustion :o
