    Sparks offer was £2 off when you spend £10 on food or flowers.

    Till girl told me that there were queues outside when they opened at 9 this morning, but she didn't know why. It's an M&S food, so must be food related.

    Sadly not on my account. :(
    So not for everyone.

    It was a vanilla one I tried last night but now I'm trying toffee.
    I'll do a mixture of vanilla and strawberry swirled together I do like my food to look nice :rotfl:

    Isn't that Neapolitan? :D
    Great idea for the Mullers.
    Do they still do the blocks of Neapolitan ice cream? Twas my favourite. :)

    And breathe & maybe have some lunch...

    Got up at 9am & Fourp decided we would go on holiday...
    House Sitter checked and the first week in June was agreed...

    Found Austria, Germany, Sicily & Salou..

    So we are going to Portaventura as we love the pool & the food & this time will be 'watching' the big rides, see the shows, gentle rides... Sun on our backs :D

    Then the Etap cheapie hotel at airport was £113 :eek::eek: must be something big on at NEC :(
    Had to find a substitute in Birmingham centre & will catch first train to airport in morning. :) £37 Ibis will do :)
    I have 30 days to stress :eek::eek: :o how on earth do folk do last minute?
    Next was travel insurance.. that's changed too as it now asks about pulmonary embolisms on the DVT declaration :) It didn't want to know about Gout :o
    Then train tickets booked :)

    Seats chosen on plane & my extra luggage took up the £50 off but has tracked on Q already :)

    :eek::eek::eek: Oh my faith we are going away :eek::eek:

    Well done on booking, may well help fourp too :T:T

    When we went to Cuba we booked 4 days before we went. That is so close you don't have time to panic, you just pack and go, I far prefer that to having to twiddle my thumbs for months on end :D
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare
