    good morning all :wave:
    drizzly rain here again this morning & not feeling cold out,

    thanks sheils, think someone was having a
    party or something last night as the
    f/works went on quite late!
    think f/work displays are the best & safest way
    to have them sheils,
    have a lovely time when you go.

    great idea for the non-fiction month Alfie :T
    thanks for the link :A
    have passed it on to some friends with young children who
    I know will like the idea :A

    loving the pics both thanks :dance:

    well, better get on with some chores & then
    hopefully catch up :eek:

    have a lovely day all & hopefully a lucky one mini-graphics-disney-350609.gif

    Morning, well done on all the wins,great start to the month. I had a win on Hobgoblins again.I won a crate of beer which will be useful with christmas coming up.Suns out here,which is nice to see. Yesterday when i went to work it was so foggy the traffic was down to a crawl. I have my washing on ready to put out on line and i'm off out shopping soon. Time to refill fridge and freezer so a big shop to do. I hope you all have a lucky day.

    Congrats on the wins Firefly and Indie! :)


    Had my 'sweet treat' prize show up on Wednesday. Some sweet shop type sweets. Lush. All gone already! haha


    Studying going better than I expected. Others did tell me this was an easier exam, but I didn't want to get my hopes out. Seems they were right though, so I have relaxed a little about it.


    Be lucky all!

    :hello: Good morning everyone


    It's another foggy start to the day here and still lovely and
    mild out. I think it'll be the same as yesterday - with the
    sun peeking through mid/late morning. soleil07j.gif


    It's 'National Jigsaw Day' today - are there any Inners who
    enjoy (or even have the time :eek:) to do them?

    My mum used to love doing jigsaws - the more difficult the
    better! I can remember there was always a large one on the
    go - and that was in between her doing the gardening,
    (mega sized garden!) shopping, running the household in
    general while my dad was working, helping with school stuff
    (myself and brother) etc etc - always so very busy :eek: plus
    we had various pets including a puddy cat (& we all know
    what cats are like when 'playing')! :rotfl::rotfl:

    Don't know if I mentioned it but I won a Spa morning with one treatment and lunch on FB the other week and the voucher arrived yesterday. It is at a hotel about 2 hrs away, thought I was entering for a nights stay! Will be able to use it on our way somewhere else though.

    :T Lovely win sheils - very well done! :T :D :j

    On Tuesday about 5.30 I found a TW win of tickets to our local theatre for a performance of a modern update on The Magic Flute for that evening. message only sent 2.30. Well we made it there. Singing and music were very good and it was a different experience but we decided opera is definitely not for us. So I won't be going informed any more opera tickets.

    Yesterday I had a call from Mums Net to say Id won two tickets to the new Pokemon film at the weekend. They kindly gave us three tickets for GKs in Scotland, their mother is able to take them. They are Pokemon mad so will be so excited.

    Then while at DD1s picking up GS from school I had email to say I had won more Pokemon tickets. DD says she will take GS.

    So Ive been on a roll with tickets this week.

    Totally forgot I had a fish slice arrive on Tuesday. Occasionally Ive been going on TW it seems to have life of its own. I wasn't sure how to private message so didn't know where the address went and thought that was it and forgot about it. very nice fish slice too.

    :T You certainly have been on a roll this week leanfun - very well
    done - brilliant wins! :T :D :j Hope you had a lovely time yesterday
    evening with your grandson.

    :T Yay! Big congrats fire**fly - wonderful win! :T :D :j

    I've been hearing fireworks in the distance for the last couple
    of weeks on and off. :eek: I also feel sorry for nervous pets
    and mums with babies. I find it so annoying - think sheils has
    the best idea of going to an organised bonfire night - wish the
    sale of fireworks to the public could be made illegal - besides -
    the organised displays are always so much better and safer!

  • Hi all sorry so many posts can't keep up , hope you are all well and lots of lovely wins!
    Came back to a win that was a beautiful teaset but half broken not the companys fault but now I know why TandT has it's name ..plus the t-set was used as a prop for an electrical company not something they stock. Hey ho 3 cups and saucers and a lidless t-pot lol

    Also won a crockpot today, mine broke a little while ago and I missed it like mad! Hubby comes in funny times and we are always out to some club so it's super handy for us.

    Holiday was awful. I cooked, cleaned , shopped and did all the childcare and friend did nothing whilst her son and mine fought the whole time. I always thought if someone paid for a whole holiday travel food etc you offered money or at least mucked in with help..money would have been refused but help would have been nice , already have 3 kids didn't really need to look after another Not even a thanks. Humph..or Maybe as she was my guest thats what she expected to do? I don't know tbh I am an introverted anti people pretty much in real life ..online so much easier!

    Sorry promise will come and read when have five mins properly. Loads of love to you all xx
