    And then we trotted of to Sainsburys with the recycling to get the free Peruvian sauce that is on Shopimum - the other sauce we had the previous week was a great success.
    Plus a few other bits of shopping for nectar points.
    And Tyrells 150g crisps which are on GJ
    and canned peas for TCB

    Then on the way to the till I spot a red RTC label on a small stand of toiletries and a yawning gap where something had once been. So remembering the Elite advice to look up and around the back of the stand, there was nothing as usual but there but on the floor next to the stand were the last 3 - Sainsburys were charging £7 for them - RTC 70p :T

    So these will be good as starter gifts for Christmas 2018 along with some nice chocs in a white box and/or a white dressing gown etc or similar :D

    Did anyone get the Argoos testers email this afternoon and if so did you manage to apply on time?
    If so can you put me out of my misery and tell me what is being tested - I am hoping that it was mops, floor polishers, irons, ironing boards, gaming equipment ....
    Anything other than something I would actually have wanted ...

    Sorry cant help they don't like me :(

    Good evening Elite:hello:

    So, who’s the guilty person that sent me the dreaded lurgy then ? :eek: the last two nights I barely slept. Cough, cough, cough, sore ribs and sore throat with the coughing.

    Did a small wash load this morning and now find my tumble drier has kicked the bucket :mad:
    So I’ve has a couple of days off, trying to fight this off :cool:

    I had seen about the mse Andreas post the other day but why is it front page news? Such a shame that neither Andrea nor mse have stated what the issue is. Is it possible she posted it on the wrong thread?
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    My friend stepped on a lego aeroplane, the wing embedded in her foot and she had to be taken to A&E for it to be freed.

    The pain and the time wasted were manageable she said, what was unbearable were the number of people laughing at her sitting in A&E with a piece of lego sticking out of her foot.

    When she got home, all her kids wanted to know was where the missing lego was.
