    [STRIKE]Evening[/STRIKE] Morning all (god, didn't realise it was that late:eek: )

    Two NSD's for me now, and as I have less than a £1 and 5 days left, I'd better make those stretch - will have to go shopping tomorrow though as we have virtually nothing in (not even any baked beans!!!!) so will definitly be over this month, but hopefully not too much.

    Been busy today so didn't get chance to get on, so just caught up on the 5 pages you busy bees have done today...

    AngelNikki two things, one, please carry the post over to next month - or we'll only be asking where the recipes are again...:D :D:D and two, who's the cute little person in your new avatar?

    AnneLouise - Are you coming back to the UK then? Oh, I don't envy you that - I would love to stay in Spain in the sun and leave our "wonderful" cost of living behind. Why are you coming back :confused: ?

    MooLoo - you poor thing, I hope they find the little b******ds that did it for you - you probably won't get anything back but satisfaction from that, but better than nothing. Why do people do that to ordinary, hardworking folk? do they think we are all rich or summit? It really gets my back up :mad: :mad: .
    As Roxy said, speak to the people who you had cards with and I am sure they can transfer the points to another card - either send it in the post or pick one up from store - I know that Tesco definitly do it (not that I've EVER lost my cards? :whistle: )

    Well, goodnight, I am going to bed now as need to get up at 6am for work... see you tomorrow goodnight.gif
