I notice that Crufts is sponsored this year by DFS sofas. Also a little while ago I read that DFS are the most frequent and highest spending TV advertiser. Who the heck is buying all these sofas to warrant all this expenditure? We bought our sofas more than 10 years ago (From M&S) and they are still in pretty good nick even though the covers are a bit tatty(Nothing that a new set from Plumbs wouldn't fix) Are we a nation of sofa buying maniacs? On the topic of sponsorship I noticed that "The Vampire Diaries" on TV is sponsored by Mentos which raised a smile :)
In the category of "Shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted" today I bought some pink silicon trivets from Dunhelm Mills - two for 50p, I was well pleased although I would have been more pleased if I'd bought them BEFORE burning the kitchen counter by putting a hot pan down on it. Still, pink eh?

Hello, thanks for the visit and the kind comments. Have decided not to go to Wales with D and K now....found out today that K's course is from 9 to 5.30 and it's a two hour journey, roughly. That would mean the doggies left on their own too long. I don't mind as it will save me money....I'd have had to go to John Lewis in Bristol and then I'd have spent too much money :o)
Yes I also spotted that Crufts is being sponsored by DFS. How very odd!! Love the fact that Vampire Diaries is sp'd by Mentos!
Your vision of me going down lanes on my bike could be spookily accurate actually. I have a lovely old fashioned sit up and beg bike with a basket on the front which is languishing in the shed at the moment. It would be great if I could use that instead of the bus! When the weather gets better I'll try it out... I need to find a route that's mostly quiet lanes as the main roads into town are scarily busy.
My bread was also made in a breadmaker. I've made it so many times now that I'm able to restrain myself from wolfing it down more than I should but I know how tempting it is!

I'm loving the pink - its such a frivolous colour!
