    I've not been yet, shame the sparks offer I have says doesn't include alcohol. But I do happen to have a £30 gift card for free from my O2 rewards. I really must go before the offer ends. :o

    Then the party's at mine. :dance:

    TM has only put one bottle of fizz in the fridge, I have a boot full of ale too. :beer:

    I've got fizz AND pies:p:D:)

    Evening all hope everyone is well.

    TM glad you were pleased with your soda bread.

    I'm in Majorca & in true Mse style I've had a picnic tea in the park all bought from the Lidl just over the road to the park. Also a bottle of wine the cleaner left for us :D xx

    Evening, I came back from there yesterday, I was in Cala Aquila. Shopprize accepted all my receipts so you can still use the app while on holiday:)

    I can empathise with break ups we have had a couple here now, DD2 and DD3. It breaks there hearts doesn't it. :(

    Yes DD2 passed her finals, exams were 2 weeks ago and by the saturday she was flying to Canada or 2 months, results were in last week so we haven't had chance to give her a hug yet.

    DD3 now has a steady BF now, it must be official as it has made FB. ;)

    And DD1 and BF have had an offer accepted and mortgage offered on a flat, so we are keeping everything crossed for exchange soon. :eek:

    I'm guessing your lad didn't ask for any help from you. :rotfl:

    Thats great news then.

    Eh no he leaped then looked. He kept a roof over their heads it's just not great and OH broke a rib moving his dryer. Dear God it's heavier than a washing machine. New flat up three lanes. No heating, washing machine doesn't work. Shower needs two people to operate it

    If it wasn't £425 a month it would be :rotfl: but it's :eek:

    Relationship break ups. I empathise. You think they'll never get over it......it seems to take forever....social media has a lot to answer for:o

    Weirdly she is kinda seeing a young guy I work with from another dept, friend of her friends. I mentioned her, he looked her up on FB and asked her on a date :T

    Brave boy my team said but he is sweet. Even if they don't go out they are great pals.

    Hows your family doing ? X

    All is well BB. DD is now a Dentist and is thriving. DS is in South Korea working and I have palpitations every time North Korea is mentioned. Mr TM keeps falling off his bike and is putting a huge strain on the NHS.....and my sanity:rotfl:

    I'm just happy with my lot in life......the simple things delight me....a bit of gardening, baking a cake, good friends and the odd weekend away in a nice hotel with a hot tub....what more could a girl want:)

    Popped to a really large store - 3 for 2 range is huge (hundreds of items) but oddly lots of item are on offer reduced/rollback too rather than inflated prices before a multi.

    In the men doe, Sure doesn't seem to be included byt Right Guard, Dove and L'Oreal Nen Expert are marked up (in this store) plus Lynx XL 200ml cans.

    It will take some working out for good comparisons, but there are likely to be triggers when it eventually goes online.

    3 for 2 posters have DU (Display Until) 4/6/17.

    It may be worth checking the wine aisle in A as there seem to be lots of reduced labels, as well as cider, lager etc.
