Lainie

I would wait until it runs out (thats what I do)

You should be paying £7.96 which is 20% off of £9.95....but if you got discount 6 months ago they may not give it again??

Last time I turned my auto renew off they told me I would have to pay £34.95. which was what I paid when I first joined in 2010....anyway I clicked subscribe at the top of the page once it had run out and I was offered £7.96

Don't go Laines !!! - just tell them that you want your 'old membership back please' !!!

Cynthia - I know what you mean!

I shop in my local Morrisons and the chiller isles are SO cold !!!!!

Even on a hot summers day (if anyone can remember one of them ;-) ) I always put some socks on and a coat because otherwise I would freeze!!

It's silly really because it is SO cold down there that I almost run through ! - I would probably buy more if I was able to browse!

It's called 'addiction' Lainie!!! :-D



I am freezing! Was fine until I went into the small Asda a couple of miles away. It was like walking into an ice house! brrrrrr reckon their freezers are blowing far too much cold air out. One of the assistants mentioned it too. Have put my cosy fleece on............................

I have just received reminder from GR that my subscription needs renewing. I cancelled the auto renew cos I was thinking about quitting GR - but the email offered 20% discount - so I thought, just once more, why not......

I followed the link to renew and the website offered me 6 months for £15 - I currently pay £7.96.

£15 - 20% or £3 = £12
£7.96 - 20% or £1.59 = £6.37

GR's 'special offer' in fact doubles my subs!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have emailed them to explain - although I dont think I shall hold my breath for either a reply or a reply that makes any sense!!!

So...I may be disappearing in about 10 days!!! [but I shall see you all on FB anyway! :-D]

I love almost any kind of seafood, fish, shellfish etc.


Not too fond of eels or squid.


The only shrimp we used to be able to buy when I was growing up was potted shrimp, only one fishmonger carried it, but they almost always had. They used to scoop the amount you wanted out of a brown pottery dish.



C ......


.. it could well have been the shrimp.


Shrimp and prawns both go off VERY quickly

Good morning and thank you Sylvs. <3



It's looking quite bright and sunny here so, hopefully, it will be a good drying day :-D



Not sure if gherkins are baby cucumbers Dea, but I think they may be cousins :-D


I'm not really a 'fishy' person but like prawns (not the King size) and shrimps.


When we used to go on holiday to my grandparents in Kent, we used to go to Margate and other seaside resorts and bring shrimps home for tea. They were gorgeous and we used to have them with brown bread and butter.


My parents taught me how to hold the head and the tail and bite the middle out
:-D

I remember being very poorly one year and now, with hindsight, wonder if it was the shrimps to blame :-(


Hope everyone has a good day ~~~~

Funny that - I am 'lergic' to cucumbers but I like gherkins which I think are really baby cucumbers ?????????

It must be like the Prawns that I can't eat but I could eat 'prawn cocktail' years ago BUT, I think they were actually shrimps ???
