    I choose turquoise for the dress colour please.

    Shame about East coast trains, it was worth 250 points a month for the Virgin Red app.

    Can I ask a quick ebay question?

    If I put something on eBay with the £1 selling fee and changed it subsequently from auction to buy it now will I be charged full fees?

    Does anyone know how strict caf! rouge are with the clubcard boost vouchers, I missed that it is maximum party 6 :o and with Teeny (age 4) we will be a party of 7. :eek:

    I've already changed them now £150 worth. :( We could have done PE and got my free bottle of Prosecco but 2 of us fancied the duck.

    Was going to be my birthday meal...

    Mr TS thinks they won't notice, but I don't want to risk a big bill at the end. I have suggested DD checks and we change the booking to a table of 4 and 3 if it does as the codes are on 2 sheets.

    Any ideas thanks...

    IVORY for wedding dress please

    Hello Elite :hello:

    Just popping my head around the door to let you know I've not got lost nor forgotten you all. I mean, how on earth could I forget DM, or Anon come to think of it :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Been home almost a week and already feel I need a break :eek: why is it things always have a nasty habit of cropping up when we're busy. Phone calls, appointments and a hasty doctor appointment for me last Friday.

    My leg was still quite red and hit whilst away and veins here and there painful, so I took my creams with me. Imagine my shock when doc said leg not healed and I'm back on antibiotics, 2 weeks worth:(. Totally fed up with it to be honest.

    Hope everyone enjoying the sunshine, and keeping well. Spending little as per.

    Hugs to the Elite poorly and those low in body and mind. If only I had a magic word or two that would take away the badness you feel 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.

    I ended up buying 3 pairs of shoes for holidays. The expensive ones were quite heavy so I ended up leaving them at home. I was as you can imagine over the weight limit :eek: Mr AJ was not impressed with me unpacking everything and starting again :rotfl: I ended up with 2 pairs of low cut over the toes , pumps. Got a larger size to give extra width as feet were and still are puffy :cool:

    After 3 days, I could barely walk, got blisters on big toe bones , yes, both bloody feet :eek: At that point kindly Mr AJ offered me his Peacock flip flops. I sweetly turned him down, turned my head away and grimaced. 10 minutes later, when I realised I couldn't wear the other pumps as they rubbed on blisters too.

    I'll never understand what made me ask him if I could wear them :cool: tried them on and they pressed on blisters. So he offered me a clean pair of socks.

    So, there I was parading around and riding this scooter thing in socks and a size 10 men's flip flops :o

    Hey, it's a good job I was wearing long dresses to hide those hideous things :o. Never again. Oh I had to travel home in them too. Quite a vision of fashion :rotfl: :rotfl:
