Hi Ann,Mummo

B&M stores first traded 30 yrs ago in Blackpool but I think were originally from Ireland
The management team have years of experience in product sourcing for blue chip retailers like Marks & Spencers, Tesco and Asda.
...........as cheap as chips lol

I've just had a look at B&M on Google,they're all over UK and there's stores at Swansea and Cardiff

btw joke in our family it belongs to us..........intials are mine and OH's lol

Hi there yes we were back at school Mau but there was a burst pipe friday afternoon so am waiting for news on monday ,Hopefully we are in
it is quite mild here today such a nice change managed to pick up all the litter in the front garden

Don't think there is one in Gloucester or Cheltenham Mau, but thanks for the info anyway.

Think there's one in Bristol Ann,anyway not too much difference pricewise to others, but I love a bargain! ;O)

Yes lovely day here Maz,we've just come back from a nice walk.....chicken in the oven smelt good when we came in front door lol...............I'm 'ungry.........

No Daff today, I hope that doesn't mean the internet is up the creek again.

*mutters....tsk tsk the state of this thread, it looks like it has been totally abandoned!! *dons pinny.

*scrubs floor, washes dirty coffee cups, crystal glasses, slow cooker to be soaked..yuk...paints a spot Daff missed when she was up the ladder/

Sits down exhausted on the pink cushions with holes in em.... and has a fag and double Vodka....

pours a glass from BC's bottle...........hey who put the ciggie holes in Daff's pink cushion then!!...........

Evening Mau...twas our Ann who did it. She was having a crafty ciggie away from OH....

*pours glass for Mau... Slainte:-))

Evening all...... busy busy day!! ~~~~~~~~~~ to everyone xxxx

We were up late... beautiful day..... I have got on with some scrapbooking, R has pottered around... then I dripped glitter glue all over the main photo... so have had to start again.... never mind, I like this layout better. ;¬)) A bit frustrating though.

R cooked dinner... scrummy!

Ann, I thought TKMax went into the spot C & A had?? Or was it something similar? Well, it was a few years ago, lolol

Lol Mau... I soooo love a bargain!! Hope your chicken was tasty, too... we had gammon.

I am getting all excited again... Littlie is coming to stay next weekend, for the week... I am really looking forward to it, especially as it looks as though the weather will be better... yeh!

BC, the one thing I have noticed with HD is the effect of make-up on some actors... there is one woman on Dancing on Ice...... she was in Eastenders, played Sam Butcher.... well, you could see the powder caked in her *coughs* laughter lines.... and she also had a fine smattering of dusty powder on her facial hair. I wouldn't have a problem, as my face is well plumped out, but hers looked dreadful. And so young, too. ;¬)) When I was doing theatrical make-up, I used to mist the faces with a fine spray which helped to *set* it, took away the dust, but also stopped the shine... brill..... Dunno about football... but can't wait for a good scrum, lol!

Maz, you'll take a bit of time to get back into things, I expect... that's the problem with a break, isn't it?

~~~~~~ to Mummo.... how are you and Eddie getting on with the brace? Is it tomorrow it will be sorted?

~~~~~ to Joy.....

Right... off to tread the threads for a while, then off to gwely, (sp) lol

Love

Daff xxxxxx

cor!! lol one whiff of the vodka and Daff was here in seconds pmsl xx

Blummin eck Mau...what was that? A tornado? pmsl

wmsl at you all..... I'll have you know I have been typing that for about an hour now... you have all snuck in through the secret tunnel while I was otherwise occupied, lolol

Love

Daff xxxx

*hugs Daff....lolol...we missed you and were just having a snifter:-)))

a likely story lolol..........xx..............not the sniffter ;O)

Isn't that a fact Mau??

BC, don't you blame me for those holes, I saw you falla sleep on the cushions with your fag in your hand Lol!!!!!

Daff H&M went into C&As shop.

How frustrating to have to do a page all over again. I have had a page started for three days but not finished it, got caught up with this writing lot.

Hiya Ann... it was really frustrating... couldn't be salvaged... Jethro walked through it and spread it around a bit more, just to make it worse... I was struggling to keep it simple, to be honest, so my heart wasn't into salvage... and it was glitter all over littlie's beautiful frock and face, Grrrrr!... so I am back to throwing everything at this new page, lol.... I think that is more my style, I reckon.... sort of OTT and then some.

What are you writing? Is that for the writing thread? I did wonder about that... I tend to be a bit paranoid until my *thing* is finished... and not too good with criticism, lol..... I find that so difficult to give... well, most of the time I do... it is very hard to be objective, I find.... if I love something, I ignore any inconsistencies, lol.... If I loathe it... I bend over backwards to be *nice* but notice everything!! Think I might *lurk* a bit longer, lol

Ahhhhh yes... H & M..... what is it with all these initials???

(((((((hugs))))) BC and Ann (cos I know Ann gets worried about me if I don't pop in, lol. mwah!)

Wmsl Mau... I was sooooo too.... I started this when Dancing on Ice started...... I can see the telly perfectly from my spot in the conservatory... and I have also watched NCIS too.... my hands are playing slowly...... I am having a sherry..... much more refained *sticks up pinky to demonstrate*

Love

Daff xxxx

what a shame, good job it was not an 'only' photo!!!

Yes the writing is for the writing group, I have discovered I was a closet writer and now I can't stop. Well, not true, I have always scribbled, but not for criticism before. i can take it..... Actually the criticism so far has been gentle, i think we are all warming up. But it is very intersting, very absorbing and I am getting NOTHING else done!!!!!!

morning all
here we go hopefully back to normal today most of the ice has gone and the ground is drying the potholes in the road are quite a hazard here now though .

Morning all. Am filling up here, just received a photo of my two little grandchildren, hand in hand, off for their first day in 'school'....awwww......lol....they look so excited and happy unlike their daddy on his first day. He had to be prised from round my neck!

Off to the Underground. Have a good day all and hope Daff's computer problems are sorted:-)
