    I missed you, I hope you've had a lovely time.

    Wine, wine and more wine just about sums up what you've missed apparently it's on until 12th April so you should have time to catch up.

    Excellent - once I get the shopping head on again I will be re stocking.

    How is the recovering going - you were still at the wobbly stage when I went AWOL :)

    Don't forget to top up your sipps before the end of the tax year! Does anybody know where the yeo valley codes on the greek style yogurts 450g we got on COS last week?. Can't seem to find one. If any elite need building supplies/gardening projects do not assume wickes is cheapest. Their delivery is £30. We have been to Travis Perkins and they matched wickes price and their delivery is free.

    Morning elite, SD have KTC 200 ml almond oil (for hair, says on bottle for cooking as well) 99p each buy 3 and get a free hair towel. Seems cheaper than the supermarkets almond cooking oil.
    Also Cheddar Pines SD had 25 odd Patisserie de Bain gift sets for 10p each containing body butter, wash puff and shower gel.:)

    Afternoon all :)

    Just back from a quick bank holiday jaunt to South Wales. If any cat loving elite find themselves in the area, Feline Good Cat Cafe in Cardiff is just the most wonderful place. Jasmine is very confused and won't stop sniffing my bag and shoes :D

    ITV Wales - 4 parter - Velindre Hospital Of Hope :D

    Heart attack ruled out with Fourp :T:T Today he might get some more results :)

    Good result for 4p.
