Lucky lady, LG :-) You are spoilt :-D :-D :-D :-D

No supermarket for me today, DET :-) In fact, I have decided to change where I shop in the future as my favourite one is going down hill fast since they made all the changes to the staffing contracts No customer service training going forward for new employees either, so they won't give a 'hoot' anymore :-( :-( I have shopped there faithfully for years since before i worked there, but it is the end of an era now unless i want to nip into the Timpsons branch outside the store for watch batteries.

That’s a shame YG. With so many mergers, I’m not even sure who owns what anymore. Wasn’t there talk of combining with ASDA who in turn are currently owned by Walmart?
If you can get yourself organised, you could try Morrison’s after work on a Friday. Assuming they have a cafe, you could have a tea or coffee to unwind before you start. We’ve occasionally picked up bits there & it’s not bad.

Yes, they have merged with A**a and think Walmart must have pulled out. They are supposed to be still trading as they were. i detest A**a so won't be shopping there.although it is midway between home and work and i pass it every day. I do call in occasionally for cleaning materials for work, but usually go during the morning when it is quieter. I won't go near any other time :-D :-D

Afternoon all, Just back from a quick visit to The Range and B&M for various things like Glue for OH and cheap printer paper for OH and trainer socks for me. I bought trainer socks yesterday in M&S but they are not good, they were not expensive) they are so short on the heel that they slide under the foot. so I have just bought mens' trainer socks and they are fine.
The rain we had helped a bit but was so heavy it brought some of the very brittle Buddleia down so we had to cut that off yesterday. Buddleia now looks a bit naked on the front. No rain forecast here now until Friday. We go to Telford on Friday. Guess where rain is forecast next weekend?
This morning we had a Comma butterfly in the garden which was lovely to see. :-) :-)

I look forward to it all N always dragged me to Redcar though she may be disappointed with the shops but the beach is flat and there is a jurassic forest exposed at the moment after last years storms .

Morning all

Good grief, Maz. You must have been up early to post when you did. Were you able to sleep well? It certainly looks as if the NE is going to get a spell of heavy rain. If your area gets it, your garden will appreciate it.
We only have a 30% chance of light rain late this afternoon- it’s probably scattered showers which may not happen.
How could you forget that you’re due visitors at the weekend? :-D

We’ve tracked down a new fan for the inlaws & will pick it up today. We’ll drop it off tomorrow as we’ll be in that area.

Have a good day.

Good morning Maz and all the others <3

That problem I had with my left arm must have been a pinched nerve due the way I've been lying. No joke when my hand didn't work :-0

Ellen, who you will recall was ill and in the assessment site of the RVI has

been poorly again. Awaiting a Doctor to come diagnose and hopefully cure :-S

Oh dear. Sorry to hear about Ellen. It would be so good if they could get to the cause & find something to cure/lessen the impact <3

Don’t envy LGs afternoon in the belfry. Look at it this way - your own private sauna!
