    First Anniversary
    Good morning lovely peoples :wave:

    Lovely to see fellow nature lovers coming out :A :)

    Another beautiful day in store - unless you have to go to Asda :D

    Can't believe how excited I've become about tonight's game - come on locarr, get your flags out :j

    Loving my Fitbit I received for my Birthday after getting used to its diosyncrasies. I mowed the lawn a couple of weeks ago, and was disappointed that it didn't seem to have impacted on my number of steps recorded - even though it was an hour of walking :(

    However, when I checked my App, I had an exercise event "Outdoor Cycling" which matched the time and duration of my mowing - so it thought I was riding a bike instead :D
    I must walk with a funny gait :o


    Loving your pond JTS, you should be really pleased with yourself :T :T

    If you had fish, you would have some cats with fishing rods :D

    Tsk :o. I should have read back before I posted :o

    I hope the new meds work well for him. Give him a gentle hug from me xx
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    From someone who finds very few wombles or decent whoopsies, I have been quite happy going to my local Aldi stores (three or four nearby) first thing in the morning. It's hit and miss of course what is reduced, but there are always some 50% reductions in the salad/veg, chilled and bread. I noticed yesterday in one store they even have a few in the freezer.

    I also like Lidl, whilst stuff only reduced 30% off original price, they always have the next day's date on them, and some even a few days. I got two carrot cakes before my hols with three days left on them

    .

    We have Aldi and Lidl 5 minutes walk away. I go into the Aldi as early as I can, tend to try to get reduced croissants and stock the freezer, never though of looking in the freezer though :eek:

    As for those Lidl cakes, the only ones reduced in ours were the coffee ones _pale__pale__pale_
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare

    Would love these as long as no nuts in them :D

    But no Lidl here never stepped foot in a Lidl :(

    I need to go out now to buy some new "gardening shoes" - the old trainers I have been using lost both their soles yesterday :(

    I use plastic clogs for gardening. Admittedly I only use them because I got them free in the F&F glitch, but they keep the bottom of my feet dry and seem to put up a good defence against strimmers lol

    Good morning everyone.

    My fitbit says "outdoor cycling" when I mow the lawn aswell. Your steps should still be recorded with it, mine are.
  • Just seen Sainsbury's have 25% off 6 or more bottles of wine.

    For those that have Gallo Family White Grenache and White Zinfandel on COS.

    Shows as last day today to claim £1 casnback per bottle, 3 redemptions on each.

    Both of these are £5.35 per bottle in Sainsbury's.

    Buy 3 of each = 6x £5.35
    = £32.10
    Less 25% for buying 6 bottles
    = £24.08

    Then claim £6.00 back on COS ( assuming you haven't screwed the receipt up into a ball and tossed it into the bin on leaving Sainsbury's)

    That makes it £3.02 per bottle :beer:

    Can anyone help:-

    I have a video on my phone of Harley walking and I need to send it to the Specialist Vet Hospital Harley went to, they want to see his progress, everytime I try to add it as an attachment to an email, it says its too large.

    I don't know how to do it.

    Today's offer is the normal suspects for £3 main meal.
    Friday is Costalot free drink day, which is normally just a gift code for £2.45 valid for that day only. I have combined to get a drink and a treat before, depends on outlet.


    Verging Reed has 2000 free pizza today, available at a random time, so down to luck.
