    Evening all! (Feel I should have my hands behind my back, and flex my knees at this point, and that REALLY shows my age:rotfl: )

    Have read the thread but OMG what is it 6 pages long?:eek:

    So from memory, hope you've had a great anniversary dinner AussieLass!!

    Purpleprincess hope you're feeling better, you naughty little stop-out!!:rotfl: (I'm just jealous really, I can just about remember when I could do that!!)

    SnowyOwl If you can afford to live on something like Sainsbury wages I'd give serious thought to jacking in your present job. Your health, both mental and physical must be suffering from all the stress and strain those pigs are putting on you!!! Life is just too short to take that rubbish if you don't need to!
    It makes me so mad, these managers, always covering their own backs, just let me at them Snowy and I'll biff them for you!! Just don't give any credence to the put-downs. It's their way of trying to camouflage their own incompetence. Anyway ((((hugs)))) to you across the water, and be extra nice to yourself!:D

    Ageandjo sorry that you're still having so much trouble, it really isn't fair!! Just hope your horse is giving less concern now. (((hugs))) to you too!!

    catowen now that's great news about the computer!! You sound a really nice person, and I'm so glad if you get a bit of good luck, I should think you deserve it!! Hope you've had a good evening at your friends.

    Kazonline great that you've had a good day out with the boys again. Won't try to remember that place name!! I'd never spell it right!! And you had a good day with moggins and family, yesterday. What is technoquest? (Bet I've remembered that wrong!!:rotfl: )

    And now my memory has gone. Oh, hope things went OK FunkyFairy, it was your DH's grandmother wasn't it? His first funeral of someone close? Hope he hasn't found it too traumatic.

    Can't believe it's taken me so long to type this, it's been one interruption after another!! No wonder I can't remember anything!!

    Off for a nice bath, then a glass of wine in my snuggly jimjams and robe!! Real glamour puss me!!! Well I don't want to tempt him too much do I?:rotfl:

    Enjoy the rest of your evening, CMxxxx

    Shez, is it under postage options? I think you 'mark' one of the boxes with that and it includes it? Never done it so not sure.
    Hi Churchmouse!!! Nice to hear from you - how are things with you?
    HAs your griddlestone arrived yet? I've found somewhere local selling the old type - not as nice as the one I showed you, more like the ones they had in St fagans (the historic welsh village thing).
    Techniquest is a science museum for children. They're supposed to learn lots of science related stuff - but mostly they have lots of fun, lol

    Kaz if you had only picked the plums on Wednesday I could have brought you two boxes of jars. I have them piled up in my cellar (nudge nudge, remember next door is up for sale, you could have a cellar too :D )

    Lol, behave you. My boys were certainly up for the move....
    Don't forget you were going to tell me which agent it's with and a link to the details if it's on the webbie. It's be even more tempting if you found me a prospective farmer to wed.... :D

    Hi Shez, Hi Kaz. Yes my griddle arrived a week ago!!! I spent ages lovingly caressing it, just like moggin's DH said she'd do with her Kenwood!:rotfl: Have used it a couple of times and it IS lovely. Very different to using my fry-pan, had got quite expert with that, now have to relearn, but it makes a great welshcake!! And I can fit so many on at once, it really cuts down on the time standing over the cooker, especially when i do a triple mixture! It's going to be a great investment, I can tell! Must go for my bath.

    Shez - on mine under 'domestic postage options' there's a drop down menu and 'collection in person' is at the bottom

    CM Glad the griddlestone is working out well - it does make life a lot easier doesn't it? Don't forget, for best results you must refer to it as a 'llechwen' ;)

    hi kaz

    On my form it says "Domestic postage services" then a question mark in a box next to it. Then the £ fee box underneath - no drop down menu.
