    Good morning all, wet and rainy here, so dull it feels like I need the light on.

    Think I'll take you up on that cuppa Pacifica :D

    Thinking of you cjj, you have a home here, have a rather inappropriate cuddle :grouphug:

    Running late, probably due to the lack of brightness in the sky, but it really does not matter as I will still be able to clear the kitchen cupboards, doesn't take that long.

    Could someone let me know what time M&S does their whoopsies on a Sunday please, don't normally have chance to go whoopsying but today I can so it might as well be M&S whoopsies :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Ours does last round about 30 mins before closing but they are staggered in percentage from about 2pm Closes 5pm

    Good morning all

    Tonight will be a fish supper as babysitting and they eat at 5pm Way to early for us Later we are bringing the dog home with us for a wee sleepover Lovely, it snores worse than me :rotfl:

    Take care and Cjj remember we are here for you

    I have "a few" ;) too - I always (briefly :D) feel guilty getting the magazines, removing the vouchers and recycling them. Same with W :(.

    Me too, I hate waste of any kind, I've been looking at ecobricks as a way of recycling unrecyclable plastics, at least the paper can be recycled. I think maybe we should ask ourselves how badly we want the free crisps i suppose

    I just keep one copy of the W magazine and put the rest back once I've been through the till!

    I left mine on the side of the self scan, im sure it will have been put back on the shelf. Yes I'm grateful for the £2 off my shopping but I couldn't take it and dump it, it goes against all of my recycling/ wastage beliefs

    A productive morning so far. Swapped my home insurance to Axa - no cashback but saved 50% on renewal quote from current provider - plus extended my meerkats. Then switched energy provider. I've gone with Pure Planet - they are quite new and no feedback yet via the MSE Energy Club but no exit fees so I figured worth a try as I will now be green for less than I was paying on my current fix (which runs out shortly and everyone else was more expensive.). Will see how it goes.

    I’ve never heard of ecobricks. It is confusing as to what plastics can be recycled, I wish companies would just use all recyclable.
    I’ve also been recycling clean plastic bags in the Sainsbury’s ‘bag bank’ thing, I read (think on here) they take any bags not just carriers.

    Morning all - Ive been in the wars already this morning, drawing the curtains some nasty little sod, wasp or something stung me between 1st and 2nd finger on my right hand :mad:

    i ice cubed it and then OH put his pain killing cream on but it still hurts. I dont deal with pain well which is riduclous as I still give blood.

    Builder was supposed to be coming back to give the windows another coat and to do the step but we have rain so that wont happen. I dont think there is one job in the house fully finished.

    But we are still off the Sainsburys local and then Waitrose this morning and at least the rain has stopped.
    Ive a nice job lined up for this afternoon, getting OH to bring photos out of the loft so Id better get a shift on :)
