    Would you believe I rang Twine about an hour ago to come and collect the rejected white wine which I assumed would be collected on Monday. I said to the chap if I went into store it takes about an hour to process as stores don't know what to do and they end up ringing Twine themselves.
    But I got a text just after 12 and the chap has just been to pick the boxes up - what excellent service from Mr T
    It also means I can now hide all of the evidence away and no complicated explanations for OH :D

    (I have given him earache about buying more biscuits in Aldi, M&ms in B&M and some nameless bit of wire from Ian Allan )

    Who would want the loo-roll to wipe the wall before it wipes your btm?

    Fourp bravely ventured out to buy milk & bread :o

    Shelves were bare in Iceland but local baker had plenty of expensive but tasty loaves :)

    He did manage to find only 2 pinters of milk in Spar, leaving one left on shelf :)

    My huge day trip with friends is sadly cancelled tomorrow but better safe than sorry :A

    If you have it the other way round it stops the kids/grandkids from unrolling it easily.

    We popped into the co-op last night and all they had was a couple of loaves of brown or wholemeal bread - they're not known for selling much healthy stuff in that shop :rotfl:
