and the winner is..

Had a very nice surprise the other day. Deb emailed me from work to say she'd won a Thorntons easter egg.
It was a competition on behalf of Marie Curie cancer care where you had to guess the name of the egg!
The winning name was Butterfly :) 
Well done love, ill enjoy eating it all myself! TeeHee

Graze

We started getting Graze boxes a few weeks ago.. heard good things about them so decided to take the plunge and order one. So glad we did too. Debbie loves them especially..she loves to take a pack to work with her to nibble on and they last her all day too!
We got this weeks box yesterday..


For a free graze box feel free to make a note of the code above and enjoy!

This is how it turned out..

Look how lean it is :)

Veggies ready

Sounds so good

Decided to treat our selves to a 2.1 speaker system. i was going to go far a sound bar type but then i saw the onkyo HTX22HDX
It was more than i wanted to pay but after seeing the reviews and with the option of upgrading to a 5.1 surround speaker system i couldnt resist.
What a difference it makes..You dont realise how bad the speakers are on your tv until you plug in a home cinema system.
