    Good evening all.

    Sorry I have been MIA all week, had a horrible week to be honest.

    My stepdad was took into hospital early monday morning, couldnt breath. He has idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, its a rare lung disease, which only between 14 - 43 people out of 100 000 people have. He also has COPD and has now got pneumonia on top of that, so is really struggling.

    Its been a horrendous week, he has got to stay in hospital and be transferred to another next week, as soon as they clear the pneumonia up, as the want to do a biopsy on his lungs.

    Oh I am so sorry. Go steadily.

    Blinking heck sav, that was a long post.. I have saved it to read later.

    I thought the same thing myself before copying it to post here. It was something I wrote last night and saved whilst the forum was down. It took me ages before I posted it today - should have been first thing but I have been in and out all day. Actually just about settling down now for the night.

    When I posted the post, I couldn't be bothered to go back and try to shorten it or take things out and move them to a more logical place in the post, so I just posted all of it as found. I have a problem anyway working out what is relevant and what to keep and what isn't. I suppose it's all of use/interest to someone and taking anything out at all would lose that. My inner workings and thought processes behind which of two prices (full or offer) I settle on, that occasionally goes on behind the scenes but normally remains hidden:rotfl:.

    I am just about going to try to start the updating now. I thought I had one small page, with the Footlong Sausages on it, from last Wednesday (11th) that had got mislaid. I had found the Footlong Sausages again on Monday so added them from the Monday information. Then I will be onto Wednesday again - 18th. The page that had been originally put away safe from 11th has turned up with the Footlong Sausages included on it - in fact it turned up last thing on Tuesday night when I had already saved everything else and put it away for checking on Wednesday 18th so I took it with me - and it looks like I already found items on it again last Monday (I did a very good collection on Monday when I wasn't doing a proper check, unlike yesterday's proper collection when I didn't do so well:rotfl:). There are a few items to add though, that were found on Wednesday last week, most of which is either RTCs that are assumed to be somewhere if I haven't seen them again or items that I have seen yesterday (and on Monday). So I will add a few items that came from last Wednesday that are continuing to be on as checked again yesterday - and main upshot is that, for people that thought I did a poor collection last week as I failed to pick up the Stuffed Lamb Breast, I did have these items after all, which are not on the list, but will be added now. I did not miss them but they have just been in a short queue waiting to be added:D.

    I have also added/am also adding the Welsh versions as I did see those last week. I have wondered whether to add Scottish versions too - has anyone who uses Scottish stores got any of those? I imagined they might exist and then, in order to decide whether to add them to the list from my own imagination of their existence, I saw an article from about two years ago which criticised supermarkets for not having Scottish Lamb widely available. I don't know whether the supermarkets, and specifically M in relation to my list, took action from the criticism that was made and whether they have Scottish Lamb now if they didn't before. They may have always had it but at very few stores or they may have been a place no longer stocking it prompting the criticism of not having Scottish Lamb. As you know, if one store has it, then it should go onto the list. So I don't know if M have Scottish Lamb or whether they have it but at relatively few stores (in Scotland) - even if it's just at some populous areas for example I should put it onto the list if anyone can confirm having it in M. I decided not to put it onto the list from my imagination and assumption and thus suggest M has it, or has it now, when I don't know if they do or not but if someone has any Scottish lamb, those versions will be added too. Does anyone have M's Scottish Lamb? Does this assumed product actually exist now? TIA.
