    Evening :)

    Mrsmac thinking of you and your DH, difficult times xx

    Tweets, your mum is in the best place, the change must be hard for her, I know how stubborn she can be. I'm glad you won't have the pressure of looking after her at home. xx

    TM did you get authorise absence for your holibobs? :eek:

    I hope we get some pics of these mystery wine cases, I do like to see what others got lucky with. :beer:

    I did see they were available again but I abstained. Still plenty on the wine rack here for me to look at. :o

    I've only had 2 glasses of wine since May and both times I was out so nothing been opened at home. :eek:

    I know a few of you know why I have been quieter than usual and not been around so much this year. It has been a hard one for a few reasons.

    The most difficult has been DD2 has been on long term sick leave but is finally back to work. She is back on a phased return so hopefully things will work out for her.

    As part of her recovery she is taking on a challenge and, I hope you all don't mind me asking, if any of my Elite friends feel they could support her I would be truly grateful. :A

    I've put the link on the charities board...

    You were lucky fuzzgun :T, my local wasn't even going to let me have 2 scoops the other week when it was only 2 free, they said it needed to be 2 people present and they mentioned how week previously it was 4 scoops so needed 4 people. :eek:

    I did say I wouldn't have activated code if I had realised and brought Mr TS with me, so in the end manager said she would override. :A

    I felt so bad I brought the extra scoop home quickly and put it in the freezer for Mr TS. :o

    So went out for a day out with the kids.

    Free hotel c ice-cream

    Petrol bought at mr t 10p off and 15 tcb new customer

    Half price bowling on Tuesdays after 6

    Free dinner at stone house






    Van clipped wing mirror on way home which went into drivers side window shattering it. Didn't stop but then there is no evidence he was over the white line so what would be proved even if he had stopped?

    No doubt either claim on insurance and hit by excess and higher premiums as mirror also damaged so not a glass only claim or pay a fortune to have it fixed at my cost.
    I think....

    I think you are tired cos you got too skinny:o:D


    Pleased you got a nice case of wine Di. I never had a bad glass while we were away.

    Case :rotfl: I bought 6 cases

    Bubbs I would expect that being overweight would make you tired but not being too skinny, I presume you are getting a good varied diet, fruit, veg, fibre. Do you drink milk?
