SAV3R

Hi, just checked on Argos site, out of stock at my nearest 10 stores. I will keep my eyes open in town tomorrow, see if anywhere else has any.

Looks the same in our local ones SAV3R there are some reasonably priced ones on ebay when I searched for 'silicone bakeware' but some VERY expensive ones.

Well DPs item has a bid on, one less toy not fussed about space, just the fact he's making an effort to 'thin' the collection down.

Right, bed time soon for me, goodnight everyone, including those who haven't been around for a little while (galantvr4, Moam, Pink Fairy, Becca, Esther, shell, maralum and more.....hope you are all ok)

Morning All

I am having a reasonably quiet weekend after a very busy first week flying. For the first time in as long as I can remember I really don't have much to do, its lovely. I am going to be baking brownies and muffins with the kids today and thats about a busy as it gets. Just got to compile a shopping list and do the grocery shop which is relatively easy as I already have an 8 week rotational menu plan.

Have a great Saturday all.
