Thread 9 - the one with the thick willy scarf

[Reastie]

Thanks @Anydreamwilldo12 for thread title

please read the thread is moving so fast atm and it’s pretty hard to keep up! I was just wondering on people’s thoughts on this so did a super quick questionnaire here . I’m not sure we’ll find a perfect answer to suit everyone but would love your feedback on if it’s an issue or not.

Just a reminder you can watch the thread by clicking on ‘watch this thread’ at the top of the first message. It’s much easier for everyone than so many place marking every time which can use up a fair chunk of each thread to scroll through

Here’s Barbarara’s instructions from last year on doing clicky links:

Open double square brackets
No space
Paste link
Space
Name of link
No space
Close double square brackets

Like this
[[www.amazingbargains.com bargain ]] but with no space after/before the brackets.
If I do it again without the extra spaces only the word bargain will appear in blue

You beat me to it! Well done! Was about to moan about lurkers lol

@Dolphintrainer - that's very true, I hadn't thought about that! And considering they've complained about the straws often enough, it might actually prove a good idea after all!

@Notlongnow1 Whoops sorry! I’ve been missing them all day. Hope you get one soon

Also if anyone needs I have a Matalan code for £15 off a £75 spend? Valid until 7th October

Your welcome ☺️ I went to use it and realised I would just eat them so it’s better for someone else to use

Luckily (or not hmmm) I’m allergic to chocolate- so no eating them for me lol

But seriously my girls will love them so it’s so very appreciated

Does anybody have the link for straws and ribbons save me scrolling through the thread please. I really must write them down when I see them 🤦‍♀️
Thank you.

@its2019ffs thank you so much for the link to the dinosaur tooth. My 16yo has many special qualities and he is going to love this when he opens it. I'm so excited to give him it I may give him it for his birthday. I'm sure it will take pride of place on his display shelf!!!

On a different note I'm looking for some very inexpensive tea coffee sugar pots for an elderly lady I pop to visit.

Teenage boy - anything specific he's interested in? I have a pre-teen into minecraft, so have bought various minecraft bits and pieces when I've seen them cheap so I can make one myself.

Was there a code or where they always £1:50? For some reason I thought they where 99p but maybe I misread.
Thanks for links ladies.

Teenage advent - if he is into collecting figures then funko pop calendars are good. Zavvi sometimes do the best prices but check amazon too. Iv got myself the nightmare before Xmas one and for my two kids - marvel and harrypotter. Can get diff types though like horror figures and fortnite etc.

And thank you to whoever posted the dinosaur fossil site. My DD loves dinosaurs & wanted to get her something relating to that but as she's older now it's getting more difficult to decide on what.
