    what a cheek Siebrie!

    feeling sorry for myself right now, just got back from root canal work :( feeling sore and dribbling my first cup of coffee of the day!

    was given 19 strawberry plants :) going to claim £11 for them (I know I can get them at the bootfair for 60p a pop)

    £2.31 for 2 ys steaks, tucked up in the freezer for later in the week

    Bless you how horrible. I had 4 wisdoms out years ago and that was grim too. Hope you feel better soon.
