    Good luck Elaine From pictures that I have seem the shelves are almost bare Maybe your area will have been replenished I hope so

    THB I feel I have not been out for ages It was Tuesday but seems much longer when its enforced

    Take care and stay safe

    There were a lot of bare shelves this afternoon, but mainly bread. Elderly neighbor needed bread so ended up giving her some out of my freezer.

    I got everything I needed then checked the woopsie shelves. Lady was there doing the yellow stickers to about 20% of usual price at 2pm. Not as good as usual prices, but got approx £120 of stuff for about £20. Lots of chicken, pork, nice pies, burgers, prawn cocktails (were yummy), a pack of frying steak and a few other bits. That is my freezer full again.

    I also got 20 big jars of Asda sweetmince for 5p each - TM let me know if you want half as I already have quite a bit already. Date is Oct 18 I think.

    Asbo Annie has been out :D

    she is so funny in the snow - she puts her back feet in the holes in the snow that her front feet made so looking at the paw prints it looks like she has walked around just on her hind legs :rotfl:

    And we will let the chickens out in the morning too,may well as taking down all the extra screening around their run :D

    Virgin have come back with a massive discount offer, but OH forgot to ask if it included the phone, will find out early next week, then if good will tell you what the discount.

    We have 19 days to cancel the talktalk.
