    Friend just rang. The Outlet has over 200 bikini tops & bottoms at 25p each & she needs me to help her pair them up :)

    I'm saying nothing. :o :rotfl:

    Persil washing up liquid 500 mls 50p in Morries this morning in 3 flavours.

    One was lemon, one new and not sure of green bottle (possibly apple).

    Can't see them on mysupermarket or morries website.

    Morning :)

    I'm so jealous of the strawberries QoC, you'll have to get jamming!

    I might have to give up my allotment :( just can't find any time to get down there. I took 2 days off work and got a space cleared, planted some runners but didn't realise about protecting them from the wind so they got burnt and died. I then got a second lot planted (around 40 each time) and they all got eaten by slugs. I also planted 2 lots of french beans (I put 3 seeds in each hole), all eaten by slugs :(
    I hope I'll be able to pick it up in a few years, or maybe the next place we live will have a veg plot, fingers crossed anyway

    I felt like this earlier in the year and I've gratefully accepted help to get my mojo back. It's a massive commitment abailey and you really don't want to sicken yourself off:o you aren't shutting the door on it forever if you decide not to continue.....maybe the time isn't right....right now. In the summer it can be morning noon and night and I couldn't do it if I had young children or an even more demanding job:o good luck with whatever you decide:)

    has anyone checked their nectar accounts yet today?

    looking at OHs account he only has about 9 offers - 2 rows of boxes plus an odd one on the last row - I am wondering if it will be refreshed later today

    there is no "load more " button underneath

    OH always has less offers than me although the shopping is similar but his is a newer account

    I've just checked and have 500 points for my next shop in Homebase. There doesn't appear to be a qualifying amount to spend:)

    :rotfl: but I would still have to go back to spend the APG, waste petrol and swear at all the muppets on the road on the way! Whereas Morries is within walking distance :D

    I know but we would enjoy listening to your tale of woe when you got back.:D
