    Happy Friday Everyone :)

    Noticed on my APG yesterday that Sada 36p sliced white bread doesn't appear on APG.

    Thanks to OP for pointing out the cheap Cafe Latte with COS and to OP for the TMF Lotus Biccies - love them :beer:

    :(

    Blooming heck it doesn't rain but pour.

    Poor Dad & his urine infection from a week ago, wrong tablets given :mad: So again call out.
    Then he collapsed on the tiled floor, as his legs are bad from infection at 8pm - Mum did the red button call as she can't lift him.
    11pm no one has come, and Mum spots their neighbour returning home.
    He very kindly comes over & stays on the sofa next to Dad (on the floor) This is after a long day working in London :A
    5am the paramedics arrive from Chichester ...
    I just suppose Dad was triaged as non emergency :)

    :( I feel guilty as I'm not there

    Snap, I know how you feel. We felt very guilty that we could not be there for FiL, but we also had to admit to ourselves that we had to continue with life here.

    Your father knows you are thinking of him, knows you would like to be there for him, he also knows you have to continue living. It sounds like they have wonderful neighbours, that is what we had to depend on too, the kindness of neighbours goes a long way.:A

    I am amazed the ambulance came from Chichester though, knowing roughly the area they live in :eek:

    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

    Ooh which part? I'm off to Kalamaki, Zante on Monday for 10 days

    Morning everyone, hope you're all having a nice day :)
