Just a quick question...when you leave a comment, do you come back and check for a reply? The reason I ask is that I think if you have been kind enough to 'chat' to me then I want to make sure you know I value that and have replied.
In the past I have replied to comments at the beginning of the next post, but more recently reply as I see them. I think I will go back to the old way of replying within the next post so hopefully you'll see them. I'm rambling on! Just a thought...

I do try to go back and see any replies but if I have had a busy day it does slip my mind. I do have the odd couple of days when I only write my post and do not look at another blog, then have a pig out session of catch up. Then I leave lots of comments and probably miss going back to check.
ReplyDeleteI reply to quite a lot of comments on my blogs but not all. When it comes to other people's blogs if I leave a comment I usually tick the "notify me" box so I know if the blogger has followed up my comment but I don't do that if I just write "great post" or something similar. I don't just write"great post" very often but if it's a blog that doesn't get many comments I try hard and occasionally get desperate! Sometimes I tick notify me even if I haven't commented if I think there may be an interesting conversation in prospect. (I've ticked the box this time.)
ReplyDeleteHi Mandy,
ReplyDeleteI check in every day with all the blogs saved in my favourites list on the laptop, usually in a morning whilst im enjoying a quiet cuppa before others get up. If I have time i sometimes check again later in the day to see if anyone has updated their blogs.
Hows the money saving going? I have been on a desperate frugal week to save as much as we can this week to the extent that we ran out of potatoes last Tuesday and normally i would have run to the shops to buy a bag, instead i did paella one day using up some rice i brought back from Spain last year, a bolognaise pasta bake another day and a chilli and rice the next. I also made medium sized yorkshire puds to go with chicken breast in gravy inside them. Yesterday i used some instant mash to go with sausages>
I gave in and bought a 2kg bag yesterday as i have my dad coming for dinner today but as there will only be OH and dad there will be potatoes left for maybe tomorrow and Tuesday.
I have decided that when we run out of something not to replace it immediately but see what substitutes i can use from my stores of stuff. It may have been only a small thing this week but every penny counts.
take care jane xxx
I often go back and check for other comments rather than a reply
