    I actually won 2 sedums I've been after for a while on ebay  :o No one bid against me either so they were reasonably priced as well (as long as you don't think about the postage). Now I just have to hope the postman knocks quietly and I can sneak them into the greenhouse without having to explain why I've bought more sedums. :#
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    That's a rare talent you have @Islander to be able to knit yourself some socks so quickly, glad you're warm and toasty now.

    The M4 relief road plans have been scrapped and the Gwent levels have been saved to be polluted another day. Waitrose are rolling out zero-waste dispensers for their supermarkets. I mean ok these were problems that needed dealing with 10 years ago but you can finally start to see progress being made. It feels like a good day.

    A kind assistant sorted through the rails in M&S to find my two pairs of jeans in the size, cut and colour I wanted ... I got to the checkout and one pair was leftover from the sales and had been marked down to £1:50 instead of twenty five quid!!!! Made my day 😊 

    Them I went to Superdrug
    ... the till deducted the £4 BOGOF reduction twice!  ‘That’s fine’ said the assistant ... ‘by the time I’ve put that right there’ll be a huge queue ... keep it.’ 

    Think I’d  better get a lottery ticket this week 😀

    I've just about finished digging out the bank (much to OH's disapproval!). I've got muscles I didn't know I had.
