The days are getting shorter; the clocks are going back...let's countdown to Christmas 2019 (thread 6)!

New thread. We're picking up speed!

Night night!

Nero it's them tha new gels fault, proper chopsy bgrs they are

Sorry Mrs

fluffy I really love it! I don't blame you for being a regular shopper in Aldi lol

Mrs Honestly it's weird. It's very dependent on where you live about cost of stuff. Like even comparing food prices here to my friend 40 minutes away? It's a huge difference in prices

Fiddle How late in the season can you guys put clothes out? We'll be able to probably until about middle of November and then it will get too cold and wet!

Off to paint!! (read: my job is keeping the Azzy cat from jumping in paint)

Wheelie, we can line dry all year thanks to a coastal breeze. My parents are pretty central / landlocked and can't do it much past October.

I can confirm that. My mum was NW coast and line dried all year round (plus she had a fab ceiling dolly in the kitchen). I'm in central England about as far away from the coast as you can get and I put my whirly clothes line in the garage on Saturday until the spring. I'll most likely be doing small loads of washing and using a heated airer and tumble dryer in the meantime.

I think I may need to road test the advent calendars just to be sure a bit like how I've "road tested" 2/5 of the 75p chocolate oranges

I always think it's a bit weird how some people are a bit about shopping at Aldi - like it's beneath them somehow. We shop there every week and there isn't much I ever have to get anywhere else tbh. Just need to stay away from the middle aisles!

Now in a cheap hotel round from the hospital - taking the advantage of a child free night and a tv in the bedroom. It's like a shitty mini break

I leave you for one (and a bit) day, and you're 160 posts into a new thread

I need to catch up!

My Mum used to have a ceiling dolly Woolly!
Dave you are not so bad it's that Fanny Golightly is the worst
Wheelie that is odd but then l spose London is the same really expensive in that way. They have these fab choc Halloween lollies/chocs in a net , in Aldi's must find you a pic

Ahhh Chocolate
Firefly you can skip my posts if it helps they are all mad
Couldn't find the chocs but look at this Wheelie

I shop at Aldi Chocolate and it’s brill!. One of the mums at nursery doesn’t shop there as apparently it doesn’t taste as good as the real thing!.

mrs I’m glad I’m not the biggest nuisance

HEEHEE l think l qualify for that today Dave

My in-laws have a ceiling dolly. I'd never seen one until I moved up here. It's amazing. 😁

Fluffy and woolly Thanks for answering my question!! I hope you guys don't mind my periodic questions. I just wonder about how stuff is different here and there sometimes :)

Chocolate We have some folks here like that. I get a few raised eyebrows 'You shop at Aldi? Why?' but besides them being very affordable? They are one of the few shops that is very very wheelchair accessible! They don't clog the aisles with crap like other shops!

I hope you are able to get some sleep tonight despite the worries for your DSIS.

Mrs I LOVE that one! We have one we got at Target but I'm going to order this one too! My kitties have almost eaten theirs
cat house

My typing skills are legendary Fanny Golightly preens & misses the point completely

fanny I love that one that hangs from the ceiling! I'm going to try and find something like that. It would come in very handy

Is it this one ? If so it's fantastic Wheelie

Wheelie l can just see the kitties balancing off your airer & Geronimo !

Mrs That's it! My mom got it for my cats last month! But Lilah eats cardboard and has totally almost eaten the entirety up haha. It's looking sad! I'm going to see about getting the one from Aldi online

LOL They love to be a nuisance! Lilah is the worst. She climbed up onto my basket shelf and scared me to death! She's the only kitty we have who likes to be super up there.

Fanny Thank you so much!! I think it would be awesome to hang in the kitchen and get stuff dried during the winter!

Goodnight fanny! Sleep tight!!

The Kitties get everywhere
We couldn't find one of ours once , we found him on top of the tall fridge freezer in a cool bag [fgrin[

Mrs and fanny as much as she’s chatted my head off, I’ve very much enjoyed nattering with you Mrs!

wheelie oh she’s gorgeous though isn’t she!. I’d love a cat but I wouldn’t get one just yet, the poor thing would be run ragged by the twins, or the other way around

Well I’m off to bed now! (Will probably pop back in after my nightly wee).

Can I ask a question? How long have you been doing these threads, I’ve been here since 2016 and I haven’t seen it once!.
