    Willy wonka's chocolate experince Glasgow!

    I'd not even heard about this until an advert for an hour long documentary showed up on telly and I watched. It was absolutely hilarious. I don't know if anybody else watched but woweee! The organiser guy clearly has some kind of neurodiversity going on coupled with mental health issues. A...

    Was I delirious?

    It seems not! I've been laid up in bed with a horrendous cold for the past couple of days and have watched more than my fair share of telly including Q of course....Did I really see that Ruth Langsford was charging £83.91 for a flaming pack-a-mac? Feeling somewhat better today I went online to...

    Morrison's salt and pepper baps

    I don't know if anyone else is familiar with these but they're beautiful and even though Morrisons is on the other side of town to me I'll happily take a trip to avail myself of a packet. They're baked in store and you get a pack of four deliciously yeasty tasting rolls topped with a really good...

    Afternoon telly offload!!!!

    Since we've retired/semi retired we watch more than our fair share of tv quiz shows and I find myself cringing on more and more occasions. Everybody seems to say Haitch instead of Aitch, the prize money will fulfil something on a "bucket list" God I hate that expression, somebody will be "as...

    Well done Graham & team

    After the worry of the forum disappearing the other day I'm so glad and relieved that we're back. Not only that we've got with a smart new layout with new features. It looks really fab and yes it's gonna take a while to get used to but a big well done to everybody involved!

    Cornered!

    Am I interested in how your baby grandson is doing since I last saw him? Of course I am, I'm all ears. Would I like to see his latest photograph? Yes of course I would, you can show me a couple if you like. Do I want to see every single photo on your camera roll, pictures of his little cousin...

    My poor friend!

    A friend and her hubby have been happily married for 36 years - childhood sweethearts, he's 4 years younger than her and she's just turned 60. Last year they made the move over 50 miles away to be near their daughter and her family. She managed to get herself her dream job, and hubby decided...

    Lucozade!!!

    OH and I have just returned from the dreaded visit down to see the rellies but we thought we'd make a nice weekend of it. Booked into a premier inn for 2 nights, so we had lunch at home set off and got the the hotel about 2pm, had a drink in the hotel bar whilst we waited for his niece to come...

    One born every minute

    There's no real need for me to post this, as I'm sure we all know a scam when we see it, but I need to do it for my own cathartic benefit. A couple of days ago an old school friend whom I'm only in touch with on FB excitedly posted that she'd just bought a couple of high end perfumes from the...

    No charity shop run this year!

    Ok we're not visiting OH's family until the new year so there's still time, but this year I LOVED every single present I got and I'm not parting with any of them. I got pyjamas, ok I don't really need any more but you can't have too many pairs can you? A xmas fleece lined hoodie, see what I...

    Donkey milk

    On my recent holiday to Crete I noticed a lot of products containing donkey milk. Intrigued I brought back a few items for myself , family and friends including a donkey milk shower gel and it’s absolutely divine. Have just come back from a short break to France and to my surprise there was a...

    Perfume dupes

    If anyone likes Alien by Mugler, I have discovered a perfume called Luna for sale in New Look. It's smells exactly like Alien and what's more it's an eau de parfum not eau de toilette. Price - £12.99 for a 50ml bottle, when you open the box the bottle inside is really pretty and the perfume...

    Customer service lost in translation

    Now we all know how frustrating it can be to be put through to a call centre where English is not the operator's first language. Don't get me wrong I have every admiration for anyone who can speak more than one language fluently - I know I can't! Simple transactions and queries fine, but when...

    A bit mean of me to say - but really?!

    I am a member of that rather peculiar "Happy clappy" QVC evangelists facebook page, I haven't contributed but it's an interesting oft times good read. It's nothing on Qurio* (more on that later). What beats me is the sheer amount of enquiries from members regarding what the presenters are...

    Christmas shopping in the 1980's v today

    I don't know how I managed my Christmas shopping in the 80's on a weekly wage that was crap, paid on the Friday and skint by the Monday - I remember buying my boyfriend a Casio watch one year and another year, a gold cross on a chain . If I remember rightly I was able to put a deposit down at...

    Holiday redemption time!

    Earlier in the year we went to Turkey for a week and it wasn't great to say the least, some may remember my "holiday horrors" thread. Next holiday was booked for Morocco in Feb. Anyway it turned out that I had a week's worth of bank holiday days to use up at work so was able to book a week...

    Drives me potty

    I was watching a beauty hour today and they were demonstrating a shampoo and a stylingbrush/ hairdryer. They showed how shiny the model's hair looked and how the hairdryer gave body bounce and root lift. They showed the before/after shot, but in the live after shot the woman continuously...

    My colleague - An update

    Some of you may have seen that I asked Sazza to remove the original post. The reason was that I discovered a Google link to that thread that could be viewed by anybody (member or not). I felt it highly likely that my colleague would be searching the net for answers,& similar cases and that to...

    Unfunny comedians

    Last night I went to the open air theatre with my friend Simon, I treated him to tickets to a comedy night as the star of the show was Maisie Adam and for some reason he absolutely loves her. I've mainly only seen her on panel shows like Richard Osman's house of games and I caught a brief...
