Spoiler alert ... It is poignant, but not actually the John Lewis ad, despite how they have labelled it 😱. Great video and tune for charity though 😇.

Extremely I like to think that the elite thread stops some people feeling on their own. Gives us all a feeling of belonging and joining in
I should apologise, as I sound like a grinch giving a spoiler alert. It is a lovely song and video, very thoughtful and raising awareness of a very important issue 😇.
According to the news, the JL advert focuses on a pink jumper, so we may be wishing this was the real JL ad 🙃.

If it's about a pink jumper it's possibly been on tv in the last half an hour. While mooching on my phone I heard something on the TV about mum buying a pink jumper but the person in the ad didn't like pink. I can't remember the rest of it. If I hear it again I'll pay more attention

Yh I feel like it's been on a lot already but hadn't really twigged it was their Xmas advert - nice jumper tho 😄
Bit of a departure from their usual ones in recent years of a song being redone

🤔 according to the news report it includes an acoustic of Adele's Make You Feel My Love:
Just to mention we had the Tesco Beef bourguignon last night and I didn't enjoy it. I'm still getting used to the Airfryer and fear I might have overdone it. It was tough. How long are people cooking it for. I did it for 11 minutes but now think that was the problem. Also thinking that I might use it for a pie filling and just heat it through to cook in the oven?
Tell me your secrets😀
I always fry off some more onion and mushrooms, sometimes adding some chopped carrots, then put the whole lot in the slow cooker for 3-4 hours and it has always come out tender and delicious. I think maybe the intense concentrated heat of an air fryer might be the problem there.
Good morning all.
I’ve a visitor so am only now catching up. Last night we had my last pack of last year’s beef. In the morning I fried onions (thanks for the tip, Foxy) and threw them in the slow cooker. Then I heated the beef, threw in a generous glug of Blossom Hill wine, added some flour, and put the lot into the slow cooker on top of the onions. I added chopped carrots and cooked it on low for a few hours. It tasted divine. I took it out of the slow cooker and when we were ready to eat it, I heated it up on the hob and added mushrooms. I served it with Olio potatoes and broccoli. It was one of the nicest meals…
What a weekend. For our 36 hours away we spent 12 hours in the car. The M1 is terrible at the minute. They are putting in emergency lay-bys all over the place ( mainly in the lay-bys 😂😂😂😂) and there's 50mph average speed limits for much of the journey. There were traffic jams, accidents and a 1 hour drive from the motorway to our destination along the narrowest roads ever. Pleased to get back last night👍
I'm feeling a bit like The Babe did the other day. That I haven't paid my dues. I seem to get more from this place than I give back at the moment!
Thanks for breakfast voucher lady. Off on my commute. TM I feel your travel pain. Everything is dug up near my work. Its impossible to get there without encountering queues
You can also get an Amazon GC by buying EveryWish in Boots.
Hi is there a benefit to buying EveryWish in Boots then changing them to Amazon please .
Good Morning all
Morning! Boots gives 4% back on ATR. I couldn’t see WHS on there but someone might correct me. But there’s no benefit over just buying Amazon GC in Boots. It’s just that my store doesn’t stock them!
Teaser isn't much of one as it shows nothing. I want the dragon back 🙂.

That's not a teaser - that's the whole advert, so you can see what I mean about it being a bit if a departure. It's still a feel good ad tho I guess. It's been on loads. In surprised no one else has seen it
Can we say it's Adele's tho? I guess she had the bigger hit with it 🤔

The only advantage to buying WHS and going that route would be the additional 2% ComSav. Well, that and the fact that I've bought nearly all the EW in my store

Good morning all, another grey day here.
I was out at 07:15 giving the lawn the final mowing of the year, I hope. It hasn't been mowed for 6 weeks, no dew this morning so thought I had better get it done. Problem is, by the time I get in from visiting OH it is already dark! Finally managed to tell next door what was going on, she was wondering why she hadn't seen him around too.
As for that John Lewis ad, I thought it was just another ad, had no idea it was the Christmas one! Difficult to even start to feel Christmasy at the moment anyway. All I can do is hope OH will be home by then. Fingers crossed, I really think he should be.
Think I am another one taking more than I can give to this thread at the moment, hopefully that will change before too long.
What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare
Another miserable looking grey day dawns. The sun seems to have gone on a very extended holiday!
Hope everyone had a great weekend. I had a lovely weekend with my dear sis. It's not often that we get to spend so much concentrated time together so it was lovely to enjoy each other's company and catch up on all the news. Lots of good food and wine were in the mix too
