Will get some apples mid week 99p for 12 on the market, i know this takes me over my usual 1.50 for food but i'm sure it's allowed this once!
Had a belated birthday present of 12 bottles of spitfire ale from over the road

Kittens are due to be spayed next month so this month's pay i'll save 30 for that, I have found a discounted vets which is good - they had all their jabs before i collected them from cats protection. If they keep growing (outwards and upwards) like they do I'll need a hoist to lift them! God help next door's dog....

Hi CA

Thanks for sticking around, good luck to the kittens for next week.

Is it a major supermarket where you buy from or a local store. We eat lots of pasta, pasta sauce and tuna and it would be really great to get them so cheap.

TIA
