I have downloaded the Uber eats app from the MSE email and ordered an indian £15 free. I’ve ordered a couple of meals & Bombay potatoes so will be several meals worth & will freeze the leftovers. Only delivery to pay £2.50 🤗 Will save the stew for tomorrow!

Free food always tastes good, leftovers are even better 🤗 enjoy!

Food was lovely, best part it only cost £2.50 and the leftovers are now in the freezer. I would definitely recommend using the app with this deal if they deliver in your area (the MSE weekly email gives details how to check). My area also includes a few convenience stores so you can get £15 of basic groceries for the price of delivery (some of mine £1.49 some £2.49, price varies depending how far you live from the store) Offer ends 25 July. 

Usual routine today, walked the dog, worked from home 9-3. One load of washing dried outside. 

Plans for the weekend 

Hoover dog carpet & stairs

Cut grass 

Mop kitchen floor

Pour boiling water on patio weeds 
Wash Bathroom towels 
Wash dog towels

Well done on the Uber [email protected] offer the boys did this when they visited me in the garden. I hope you are having a good weekend. It is lovely here cool but not too cold or too hot.

Hey SyA
Erm, does that help with shedding? What a well behaved dog you have!   

Seriously though, I am going to look into that Uber thing, thanks for that....

I wish it was that easy 😆
She does love the hoover and lays out on the carpet in front of it and falls asleep! I think it’s the repetitive backward & forward motion & the sound 😴 

It’s sunny & bright outside. The forecast is dry but clouding over later. I’m just putting the towels on to wash. Then I will do the dog towels separately later in a big net wash bag with a dog hair dissolver. 

Am making some cheese & bacon turnovers with a pack of puff pastry £1.00, savers bacon £1.15 & some grated cheese about 50p total £2.65 for 6 = 45p each approx. Will have one for breakfast & freeze the rest once cooled 

Also forgot to add, my prime morresons order came with free delivery & they had put 2 of each pack of chocolate in when I only ordered & paid for 1 of each! Not very healthy 😆 but £3 worth free. I now have 6 multi packs of chocolate I will try not to eat it all at once 😉

Dogs and hoovers so funny!!!! It is gorgeous here and not too hot. Those turnovers sound great. Free chocolate????? OMG Im packing my bags!!!!

I want a curry now! Hoping the curry house up the road opens soon so I can try them. 

Think we will all be coming round for afternoon tea SYA.

Bonus with the shopping, free chocolate tastes even better than normal 😁

It was free gammon last week when I declined a substitute and they put it in anyway 🤗

My to-do List has grown 😆 but I am slowly working my way down it. 

Make bacon turnovers✅

Wash towels ✅

Cut open face cream ✅

Bleach clean bathroom ✅

Descale shower glass✅

Check toilet Cistern 

Hoover dog carpet 

Hoover stairs

Wipe down stairs 

Cut grass 

Mop floor kitchen &

Bathroom 

Pour boiling water on patio 

Weed forecourt 

Clean kitchen windowsill ✅

I’ve cut open the face cream tube to get the last bit out and there is enough for several days. 

There is a problem with the toilet flush, it doesn’t seem to be sealing when flushed and water is running into the toilet. I will take the lid off & follow instructions from DF later. I can send him pictures and he can tell me how to fix it if needed !

Hello SyA
Wow, you are busy! I hope you get that toilet sorted, mine does that sometimes so I take the cistern lid off, and, I think the technical term is 'jiggle it' until it stops flushing. It has worked for now, but, might only be a temporary fix.... Hope that helps in the meantime...
