    I just go onto the website and click on the item (say on asda) and then copy and paste the url line in as the photo, and then give the primary web address, so like asda.co.uk

    Me too Shelley, had a busy morning (well for me) with paying deposit, rents, looking at fridge freezers etc, plus got a really sore throat and just cant be !!!!!d....

    Am trying to devise ways of saving as much money as possible when we move, so what I can do about the electricity, heating, when we cook etc, grocery shopping...

    Was quite chuffed last night when we went out, as there was 4 of us, and I took a voucher I got online for the restaurant we went to, and handed that over and we got a free nachos, but the thing was massive, and on their menu for £8, and everyone was really grateful to me.
    Normally I feel a bit of a cheap skate esp with DH who would pay thru the nose for most things if I wasnt there, so it felt really nice to be rewarded (in a way) for it.....

    Another review done, but Im not sure the miles are been creditted, might be because it was a discussion one I did....I know you dont get any for archive ones, but Im a bit annoyed I didnt think about that before I started typing LOL

    I need to post our letters to the current letting agent and the council tomorrow and get the final bills sorted out for the electric. Think I will also pay for royal mail redirection for our post, as I always forget at least one account to update! Plus over xmas, not sure how great they are going to be with updating records etc.

    I actually dont mind moving, but i think its because ive got a really organised brain anyway, and not that many possession to pack up plus we rent which always makes things easier to be fair.

    Think we're going round to the new house after DH finishes work tomorrow and going to write a list of what to do before we move stuff over.I'm going to collect some boxes from my work as well tomorrow on my way to collect the keys so I can at least make a start with that.
    And our new fridge/freezer is going to be delivered next sunday.
    If we do go tomorrow night when we finish work, I'll try and take some photos and upload the before pictures :)

    Thats brill CAFC! i cant get any more cards :( and have made some late payments, only 1 day late but it still messes everything up :(

    Bad news on the work front although there have been 1 person move off the night shift and 2 people sacked they are not replacing them at the moment?? I dont know how they can justify it arghhhhhh!!!

    anyway on a brighter note its friday gonna spend the weekend with LO and OH have a relax :)
