We don't, we only have Yorkshires with beef.

Apart from anything else, there is not enough room on the plate :rotfl::rotfl:

Morning luvlies

Good luck today Wendy, hope all goes well for you

Was wondering if the red lip crackers are now working. Checked MSM last night and still showing OOS for T, but appear to look ok this morning. I know A don’t use MSM, but remembered izzey mentioning something and I screen shot her post before we lost the old thread. Not stocked in my ex netto but will have a look in another store at the weekend

That's what I thought at the time hampydoodums, but the loreal sport was still showing OOS on mysupermarket, but is now picking up Tesco's price ....

I would be tempted to try them if I needed them for a nice gift ... but would pay cash then they could theoretically go back without causing any raised eyebrows or trout pouts

All 3 colours show on the Tesco app as being available.

Good evening......Yippee....I have my main computer back up and running....Just under £15 for a second hand Power supply unit...Switched it over myself and bobs your uncle...:j:j... Never opened up a desktop computer before....but a few you tube videos to gain a bit of knowledge and I thought I could do it myself....:D

I thought I had lost everything I have saved on my computer.....Photos most importantly...I will definitely back up everything now....I would not want to lose them...

Hope all is well with you all...:dance:

Morning all. Not so sunny today but looking forward to hitting the shops , then the distillery, and afternoon tea. Will try to fit in a swim and sauna before the distillery.

Room ok the food and staff are brilliant. Groupon was misleading. Evening meal is only on one night. Normally it’s reported in headline print not small print on second page. Still good value. We will eat out tonight or just have a bowl of soup. No point in stressing the small stuff I have freebies to look for.

Enjoy your day.

Just wondering has anyone else been offered a gift receipt when buying the gift sets in A? I didn’t need any yesterday but guess it would make it easier should you wish to exchange one, for a different flavour perhaps.

No I wasn’t offered one ... though self scan has its limitations .

You could be onto something though, as the return/exchange period is extended for Christmas.

Wonders out loud if you could get a separate one for each gift set and if it would show the SEL price or discounted 342 price ...

Desperately trying to borrow or buy a wheeled commode before next weekend
No answer from Red Cross or St Johns..
Local FB - zilch
If I buy one will it get here by next weekend?
and what do I do with it after Dad's gone back?

:o:o

Try going along to the local red cross/st john loaning place if u have one. Have you tried phoning them or did u just email them?
Hope you get one soon

Morning all :wave:

Waiting for the oxygen nurse to come round to assess OH. He is going to ask if he can loan a portable concetrator as its too much having to lug round the small canisters each time he wants to go out, which is rarely (mainly hospital appointments). Its too much for me having to lug the wheelchair out the car, lug the extra cannisters he wants to take as he gets very anxious about running out of oxygen. I have mild scolosis of the lower spine and get some pain there if I overdo it. Also had hip replacement 11 years ago so shouldnt be lifting heavy things. And just remembered I had breast cancer 7 years ago so Im sure I shouldnt be lifting with the left arm anyhow. So fingers crossed they loan him one or else he is looking to buy one for about £2000 - £3000. :eek::eek::eek:
He says he will go out more if he had a portable concetrator. Hope he dont mean accompany me to the shops. He wont keep his mouth shut if Im trying to do a glitch :rotfl:

I thought the little 20cl bottles look nice but are £3.
Portion control.......

Morning peeps.

Yesterday I received an email from co-op membership updating their Ts & Cs. I can now earn 5% for me and 1% for my community at co-op electrical on selected products. I know some of us shop with co-op electrical so maybe of use to those who do.

Yes they did say long exchange period. That thought re different ones did cross my mind, I’m thinking they do issue separate ones like M&S do - I end up with a handful of them when I’m buying slippers in there

Hope they don’t leave themselves open to abuse with people taking lots back

Have DGD2 with me today, had her Monday too and DGD1 all day yesterday - no wonder I’m getting nothing done :rotfl:
