Turkeys are under £1/kg in Sainsburys, yet I still didn't buy any.

All the wrapping paper is 50p a roll in there too. Got a 4 pack of Implulse body sprays for £3, they're normally 2 quid each. Few other bits n bobs,nowt special. Didn't go to my usual checkout lady, went to a new one, she wasn't too bad, I suppose.

Friendly, polite. Quite chatty. Makes a change from some of the miserable mares in there.

I'm venturing into town today, I’ve not been out the house since Friday - I don’t actually want to go out, I’m quite content sitting watching box sets. We got sky Q at the beginning of December and its amazing if what a tad expensive. But SKy has the best service for subtitles which my hearing impaired daughter needs.

I’ve only been as far as the bin to dispose of the Christmas wrapping paper, but I did say I would meet family for a meal. So I can’t hibernate any longer - time to put the winter coat on and brave the fresh air.

This is my dog. She is not permitted to go on the sofa.

This is the Christmas cushion that I bought for the sofa.

View attachment 3707

So at least 10 times a day I walk into the room and shout at the cushion "Get down off the sofa you naughty dog. Oh, sorry, you're a cushion".

Gets me every time. Every single time.

I'm worried that you don't have 2 matching cushions on that sofa @Carole, for the sake of being symmetrical I think you should sit the Dog on the other end of the sofa....

.....or the cushion on the floor for the dog to sit on.......

Thanks for this, grabbed myself 6 rolls of wrapping paper for next year for the price I paid for one 2 weeks ago!! Also picked up a half price Tefal frying pan and half price Tefal Wok. Bizarrely I use both these items almost daily yet never found the time to replace my old ones which were very past their sell by date. Really happy that I've finally done it, and for bargain prices too

. And that's my shopping done for the net few months!!

Spent the afternoon infront of the fire watching Karate Kid with my boys. Lovely cosy day

I've just gone to the tin of Quality St only to have the disappointment of finding out that they have substituted my favourite toffee deluxe (brown wrapper) for something called honeycomb crunch.

And they call this progress?

That 1 is absolutely minging. I loved the toffee deluxe. At least the chocolates haven't been faffed about with like the Roses have.
