    It doesn't say where it's made, but it's cheap; 45p a bar
    He also bought diet lemonade 6 packs;17p a bottle.
    "How many do you have there?" said the cashier
    "6 packs of 6" says Hubby
    " yeah, but how many is that in total?"

    I've just seen this on the bbc 
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-45576044
    and I've just had an email from Gardens Illustrated offering "Orla Kiely tins when you subcribe to day" 
    The irony.

    This is what @LilyLily Pilly" posted in the  August thread by mistake:

    "Thank you all for making me go for eye check. I have swelling at the back of the eye causing macular to retract giving distorted Vision. More drops should fix it. 
    Came home to find chestnut down. Had taken all power and phone lines
    so I may be quiet for a while but just wanted to say thanks. I owe you all!"

    Glad they're sorting you out LilyP   B) ((hugs))

    Sometimes it's good to nag  ;)

    Shame about the chestnut tho  :'(

    Never heard of them either.  Might be a bit out of the loop these days.

    Not a style I'm keen on but it's a huge shame for the staff when a business goes under like that  :(
