Nice day out, we have a Hotel Chocolat now in Shrewsbury :eek: & I have MOCs ...
I do like HB - got compatible Oral B lookalike electric 4 x tooth brush heads 3.99.
Lovely cat toys for 39p - 2 mice with feather tailsand a monkey on a cord & stick for 49p.
Campbells condensed soups are 45p (Ts 95p :eek: )
Bought a nice Rupert calendar from The Works.
Rightliver & bacon for my late lunch/tea & instant mash
Please can I ask what are the Hotel Chocolate MOCs?“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove. Every day will allow you, --will invite you to add something to the pleasure of others, --or to diminish something of their pains.”0 -

I think this weekend is now organised - BIL is going down to bring Parents here on Sunday.
That Sister booked into Travelodge for Sunday night near Aintree Hospital.
I entertain Parents Sunday night & all day Monday (house viewing 11am)
Other Sister will have to take over as I then catch a train early Tuesday morning to either Fazakerley or St Helens Central depending when That Sisters hospital release is & the results appt in St Helens later
Is the other sister still coming over from France on the Friday?“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove. Every day will allow you, --will invite you to add something to the pleasure of others, --or to diminish something of their pains.”0 -
