    Good afternoon.

    I woke up early this morning with a chirping sound - I checked the alarms, checked gadgets ... then I worked out it was a bird outside :o.

    Morning all. I was passing S yesterday and had a mooch round -- I was particularly looking for summer dresses as they had some lovely ones last year. But nothing. The only thing that tempted me were some white jeans but I'm not sure it is worth the journey and I can't really persuade myself that I need jeans at present! I think the 25% off Tu might also still be working this weekend, so if it is, with the 10x points, it's a good discount. Maybe I should pop by and hope for a good womble!

    Agree Sainsburys Tu this time is very disappointing. I took pics of everything that looked possible about a week ago but they all seen to have been and gone in the meantime.
    It might be worth a look online and then ordering to collect instore
    I did get some sale stuff but all winter things which if they fit will go straight into the winter storage.
    About the only summery thing I really hope does fit is a sleeveless white blouse with embroidery on.
    There are some sundresses but things with waists dont always look right on me now as I am out of proportion.
    I also had a look at Asda George during the week and they have some linen mix shift dresses, sleeveless, nice neckline - might be too long though, below the knee. There were 3 types but none in my size so if they dont have any stock in the nearest Asda again I am going to order online

    Just back, walked over 15000 steps but managed to get what I was after. Slightly annoyed though, went to T to try to get some loose fruit and veg for Castor and Pollux, managed to get a few grapes, a little bit of broccoli and some cress, but wanted to get them a brussels sprout and they don't do those loose at this time of year :mad: Not buying a whole pack for two little conures :eek:

    only got it yesterday from asda £15, not taking it back as paid with apgs
    :p

    ps i should add, it was very simple to set up and working great.

    confused though, and i know your the expert. my internet now seems to be faster. even though before i was usually sat within 2ft of the router

    Glad it works for you annoying about Sains though, chances are yours wouldn't have had it though :rotfl::rotfl:

    As for why it is faster, it could be so many different things maybe something you were sitting near was pulling the signal down, or could be as simple as it uses a different channel.

    I've been birthday watch shopping for Mr TM at the toon:D

    He also decided to treat himself to some new jeans. I left him in the changing room while I went and got another size for him and walked straight back opening the curtain on some poor soul stood in his undercrackers:rotfl::rotfl:

    He was only slightly shocked. :oI think my face frightened him a little. I'd just had my make up put on by a 12 year old working on the Mac counter. She took all my make up off, primed me and then had to use some green/white stuff on my face as I was too red she said:rotfl:
    She must have seen the shock when I looked in the mirror. My face was cream:o She quickly said she wasn't finished as I needed bronzer highlights and then blusher. Honestly I looked a right clip:eek:

    Anyway in other news the L'occitane shop has closed. I hope it was nothing I did:eek::o They were very generous with freebies:o
