    Just said to dh, do you fancy going to As tomorrow...he said oh sh#t I'm not having my own trolley :rotfl:

    I must be getting OH trained, as we walked into Asda, he picked up 2 baskets and gave me one, said see you at the yogurts haha
    I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. :)

    Weight loss 3 stone :D

    Mhoc - and anyone else with family in the Services or Emergency Services - I spotted this discount card on Grabbit. Starts August 2018, I think it said, but might be worth bookmarking for some. Thanks to the OP.

    I will be getting myself one of these babies :D xx
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.
