I did Home EC and we had cookery rooms and needlework...boys had too do it as well in 1st and 2 nd yr like we had to do wood work and metal work, then you could "drop" them and do something different in 3rd yr if you wanted, i did Home Ec and needlework till i left school:D

MY Sada shop was a bit rubbish.

I found the Ella xmas dinner but our store didn't have the kiddilious range so that part of my list was not done.

I found the tom ketchup crisp but our store didn't have the right kettle waves

My store didn't have the pistatio yogurt or even the muller trigger I went to plan B and got ten of the same. The girl at the till tried to persuade me that I needed to buy one more yog.

I got 3 nakd bars as fillers - one flavour not stocked by saisbobs so it came back as NA

And the fruit and water I needed all bad fillers against S

I also had Iams cat food but the sticker MOC would not scan so the SS looked at it and it wasn't for iams dry food but for the boxes of sachets. I asked for my iams to be removed.
Afterwards I realised the other stickered MOC still in my hand was for the correct ones - didn't realise that the Iams bags had two different sticker MOCs

but otherwise I just got things we needed and used up a bigger voucher and a car parking voucher. Also got 30p for TCB for a Muller and about £1.35 to come back from shopimum for the nakd bars

Hello mrsmac, it does look lovely but not good for travelling, my dd went home to skye yesterday which is just as well as awful today, shame it will be another challenge for dh to get to work tomorrow.
mhoc you had me looking at my phone pics, mine don't do that maybe mine is too old.:)

Mine is just an iphone 5 I think, nothing fancy and I am resisting any updates for now as its working fine and last time was bad enough.

It just makes you wonder what else our phones do that we don't know about ...

On my iphone this morning it said that I could not store any more photos without deleting some - so this afternoon I made a start - getting rid of screen shots, receipts, SEls etc, I take photos of everything and anything.
I then noticed that if you lift a photo up sometimes it gives you the location where it was taken and also a map, not always - and not always accurate as my garden stretches two house in either direction now.

I told OH and Errant son about my new discovery and they both looked at me as if I'd lost my marbles ...

Has this always been the case with photos on iphone or is it a recent invention ... sometimes I cant believe how little I do know, either that or my brain s also reaching capacity

This is not a new thing.

If you go to search at the top and type in something like "cat" or "garden" it'll bring up pics with those things in. Type in food it'll bring up pics with food and so on

If you only bought ten strawberry she was right.

No snap it's brown, says 35th edition.

40th edition, in my defence.... I have remembered, when I left exOH I left my original one behind for him, so I must of got this one in 2005



The Be-Ro company was founded in the 1880s and was originally ‘Bell’s Royal’, a grocery company specialising in flour and raising agents. After the death of Edward VII it became illegal to use the ‘royal’ name so the company became the snappily title ‘Be-Ro’ company. In the 1920s the company introduced self-raising flour and did a series of demonstrations using new recipes to demonstrate it.
