Ok yeah had my op yesterday. All seems to have gone well so far. Sitting up on a chair already. Don’t let u rest in bed much these days.

Think I have spammed a post by accident ooopz. Sorry. Can’t find it now.

Hope you are doing ok after your op gocat onwards and upwards eh.

Freewheeling

Do people normally managed to use SSM coupons okay in Sainsburys? I just had my Fairy coupon turned down because apparently it wouldn't scan on the till. If other people have managed to use them then I'll just try a different Sainsburys.


I also forgot to go into Hotel Chocolate for my 'lolly'!

What's swipe and win?
Sorry, I meant I was using my own nectar points up, had £2.50.

Hmm - elite badge is in danger...nectar points double up coming early Nov when those points will be worth a fiver...don't spend them now!

school girl error in Mr Ts today, got three lots of cwisps and maggers but they had loads of RTC toothpaste and mouthwash, coffee beans and decaf tea (dont ask) I also had to get allthefondant as it eldest DDs party tomorrow and ive not done her cake yet. should have totted up what i had and bought some other stuff ill need to make it £40 (or £60) to use my £8 off voucher but i didnt and it was £32 with the money off the other stuff, im still a bit cross with myself. Every cake ends up being a way bigger thing than it should but im too tight to buy one. I suggested she have a plain cake but was told "that would be weird" so ive just carved out half of it and its back in the fridge. Made ganache but thought id use a tub of the DR O for the crumbcoat, that was a mistake, its rubbish and theres not a lot in there! totally ok for 25p though. trying to summon up the energy to go make fondant people. best be some mummy points on offer!!!

Well that was quick. :eek: I only ordered those toilet rolls from Robert Dyas last night and they are already ready to collect. :eek:

In fact they have been since 9.10am this morning...

Sainsbobs do it couple of times a year where you spend £10 and swipe your nectar card to win nectar points, guaranteed to win at least 200 points.

Other wins 500, 1000, 2000 points usually but I think they may also be doing a 5000 point this year. I am sure aau will correct me.

It's on this coming Friday 26th until Sunday 28th.

Lots of us fill our cars up with petrol/diesel at £10 a go. Some petrol stations are excluded though.

Think i'll have a go at the fuel.

Make some buttercream, easy to make the right consistency and easy to colour.
