Our lad loves Peperami smoky ketchup. B&M had loads reduced to 40p, so I bought a dozen bottles. all dated in mid-2017.

3 packs of smash burgers at 50% off from Aldi has sorted tomorrow's tea, and a couple of lamb burgers for the missus who won't eat beef.

tbh the sun hits the front first but from about 4pm the patio gets full sun till we say night night to the sun so for evenings it will be a life saver

A bloody pressure upper arm monitor because I went for a respiratory test at work and the first thing they do is check your blood pressure, well I failed it so they wouldn't do the test!

So they have asked me to buy this and take 2 readings a day for a month before they see me again, so I'm hoping I'll be ok doing it in a home environment when I am relaxed because I could feel high blood pressure having to do something like this at work.

Not brave enough to use it yet!

how do you fail a blood pressure test unless you are dead

Re: What have you just bought?
 

I failed at a recent annual checkup. A raised reading is no good, strokes and stuff. This year I refused to wear the weekend monitoring device. The nurse ended saying just lose weight. Easier said than done.

top tip. if it tastes good cut it out of your diet

Re: What have you just bought?
 

Lol.

By the time I rushed out the clean room got my suit off then rushed upstairs to the meeting, my heart and pulse were racing, so this increased my blood pressure because I wasn't relaxed at all.....and I definitely wasn't dead. Hehe

I don't like sugar. It's like salt, gives a weird reaction in the body. You'd think I'd be in shape saying that. :shrug:

A sugar coated Doughnut is heavenly food!
