    Do we know that Bottlegreen presse is on offer in Waitorses for £1.50 (usually about £2.50)
    Various flavours but we got elderflower
    This is the presse which you drink straight from the bottle.

    Bottles are coming into store (so ask an assisntant if they have any in the warehouse) with a neck collar with a mini bottle of raspberry cordial and a 50p coupon for the cordial.
    The cordial is a great size for inside handbags - when you ask for water at the table in restaurants you can add some cordial (discreetly)

    The cordial also goes on offer periodically
    “Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove. Every day will allow you, --will invite you to add something to the pleasure of others, --or to diminish something of their pains.”
  • Good morning all, started off with blue sky here but has clouded over a little.

    I am annoyed. We have been looking for a travel cage for Castor and Pollux (safer for birds to travel in a smaller cage) and have found one that should be capable of defending itself against those beaks :eek:

    It is https://www.aosom.co.uk/plap/pawhut-travel-bird-cage-metal-black~4562.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIu5jcx8GP3gIVBbXtCh04lwIYEAQYAiABEgKTSPD_BwE

    I found it on a website for about half that price, but it is a very suspicious website https://www.skycammarket.com/products-285965.html, it has no contact details and does not take paypal, the social media links do not take you to it's own social media, in fact it does not seem to be on social media. I just wish I had not found it on there because now I am trying to find it elsewhere for that price. Any assistance would be gratefully accepted.

    At a guess, if they are legit they are dropshippers at the very least, I have contacted them to ask them a few questions, I would have thought that postage alone would be that price (they seem to be based in Canada!).

    Morning all - we have full on thick fog this morning - September fog in October

    We have a peculiar afternoon coming up so I have to concentrate on this mornings evil task - cleaning and clearing the dining room. It has started to become a bit of a holding station (ie a depository for homelss articles) whilst the living room and study were re organized and while the builder was doing the front door.
    But if I can somehow get it back in order than that's downstairs more or less C*****mas ready

    We have that problem too. We have a dining table we cannot use, OH plonks his work stuff along the side of it. I was going to clear it up whilst he was away, but I got so far and had to stop because I discovered that that is where our enormous colour laser printer is living and there is no way I can lift that off the floor!!

    “Spend £60 or more after discounts and promotions are applied in a single transaction either in-store or online at tesco.com/groceries between 15/10/18 and 04/11/18.” :(

    Looks like you’ve got to part with £60.

    SnS

    You can buy gift cards too , maybe not all £60 but some except their own.

    Congratulations ts and family

    Good Morning all :)
  • Morning all!


    I popped into T's this morning. Still plenty of ready salted, and salt and vinegar crisps, just no cheese&onion. The magazines have also been replenished.


    The 6 packs of T own brand 'wotsits' are RTC on 47p. Not quite as good an offer as free crisps, but it depends on what you like I suppose!

    Enterprize I hope you can get an answer but I cant help but hate to ignore

    Dh got me magazines last night They are Septembers :rotfl: I did not think to check at the time

    His van had a flat battery so he may not be working today If he does he will have lost 3 hours at least

    Dog is going home today I need to get a move on as I seem to spend my time playing with him and have done very little this week DH says there is always next week :rotfl:

    As I love the seaside I have booked an overnight next month at in a wee town where I used to holiday. I am equally excited as we are going to Blackpool for New Year. Bus/coach trip that way DH can have a drink Ok I don't expect it to classy but it should be fun I imagine lots of old people like ourselves

    Sun is shining but there are dark grey clouds

    Isn't that only on wine hippychick? It's very rude of them to have such offers on during froctober I will need to seriously consider which route to take :(


    Thanks Di. Have amended my op.

    Good luck with the estate agent today x
