Get Trills with her shelves in her conservatory!
How lovely, will you have coffee table weighty glossy books as well?

A house without sticky kid's fingerprints and wee all over the loo floor lucky Trills Grin

Love the new inbox thingy!

AnnieBeansMum · 21/09/2010 15:35

Ooooh message poster?? What happened to Contact Poster? Is CAT no longer????

mittz · 21/09/2010 15:36

Trillian.. stop it with the rules.. Grin they make me itch...

Alicetheinvisible · 21/09/2010 15:36

Conservatories are very grown up aren't they? Unfortunately ours has turned into a utility type room.

The whole 'feed a cold' thing, does it work? cos i am bloody starving

BitOfFun · 21/09/2010 15:37

Why would Prince Harry's cock put you off cottage cheese? Confused

Is it the rampant thrush you might acquire from over-ponding?

mittz · 21/09/2010 15:39

BoF You are funny Grin

TrillianAstra · 21/09/2010 15:39

They're just those cheapy wooden slat shelves that you get from argos for your room when you are a student.

Lizzylou · 21/09/2010 15:42

Don't downplay it, Trills, enjoy!
Have you a sofa/chair in the conservatory as well. I have a dream that one day I can sit in a comfy chair in a conservatory curled up with nice coffee and the sunday papers for hours. It seems an age away at the moment.
Not least because I haven't got a conservatory.

VinegarTits · 21/09/2010 15:42

what is over-ponding? is that like frog sex?

mittz · 21/09/2010 15:46

Yeah.. it involves a ToadsTool... Grin

NormaSknockers · 21/09/2010 15:47

Oi Shiney I didn't bloody get one (or is that a good thing?)

Ok, I give in, what is the Nigella book & is it 'spensive?

Alicetheinvisible · 21/09/2010 15:49

Grin at frog sex

must get dressed...

TrillianAstra · 21/09/2010 15:49

£12.99 from play.com, and you can get 3% cashback from topcashback (that's my referral linky, hope you don't mind), so really only £12.60. It's a recipe book. Hells says it is good.

Lizzylou · 21/09/2010 15:51

OOh Annie, how lovely, is that where you are from originally? How does your DH like it in Canada?
My Mom visited Toronto area a lot to see my Great Aunt and Uncle, she said it was lovely "in the fall". Think she meant Autumn Wink

I am pleased to report that both boys behaved at school today, so perhaps they will escape Asbos at 13 after all.

bellavita · 21/09/2010 15:52

I didn't get one either >

Stop chatting, I cannot keep up whilst I am at work!! Grin

How does the cash back thingy work though Trills have I got to sign up to some bumf & then buy everything through it in future to get 12p back or something?

NormaSknockers · 21/09/2010 15:58

Is it the heart of the home recipes?

I haven't got any Nigella books, are they worth getting?

AnnieBeansMum · 21/09/2010 16:09

Prince Harry's Cock hasn't put me off cottage cheese.....mittz has! Grin

Yes Lizzylou, I am originally from this area. My DH loves Canada, but is finding it very hard to settle in. We both are struggling a bit tbh. Time will hopefully help a little. And yes, Fall is Autumn. I keep getting tripped up on my Canadian-English vs English-English. I asked my mum if I could "bum a fag" and I thought she was going to have a stroke!! hehe

Lizzylou · 21/09/2010 16:15

Grin at Annie scaring her Mom.
I loved BC, I'd love to take that train through the Rockies as well, and go to Vancouver Island and see Killer Whales. Mom was in Kelowna, we went to Vancouver as well (gorgeous place, but everyone is sooo healthy, all running up mountains at 5am etc) and we drove to Banff. It was lovely, very beautiful. My Mom would live in Kelowna, I think the vineyards swayed her Grin. The people in Kelowna were very lovely and drank like fishes so Mom was in her element.

I have a Nigella book and it's good, How to be a Domestic Goddess, I think? She does good cake.

NormaSknockers · 21/09/2010 16:21

Grin Annie at scarying your mum!

I like the look of that book Lizzy, I fancy that one & Feast I think it is.

NormaSknockers · 21/09/2010 16:23

What would you tell yourself?

TrillianAstra · 21/09/2010 16:25

Sign up to topcashback. Free. You click through them to normal websites where you buy stuff (e.g. I got 10% back from New Look the other day, and some money off airport parking, and LOADS off AA membership). The money then quite slowly ends up in your account there. Then you tell them to send it to you. They will send any amount. It's still free.

So you buy stuff on normal websites for the normal price, but because you clicked through, some money ends up in your topcashback account thingy. They make their money through advertising, but you don't have to let them send you emails if you don't want to.

NormaSknockers · 21/09/2010 16:28

Hmmm doesn't sound too bad, I'm just useless & forget to click through them to buy my things that's the problem!

Lizzylou · 21/09/2010 16:30

Norma, I use it and do forget.
I am gutted as I forgot to use it to book our flights, I missed out on a hefty wodge.
Gutted!

VinegarTits · 21/09/2010 16:30

TCB is great i have got about £150 back from it this year and still more to come Grin
