Your mystery shopping exploits of yesterday made me chuckle! I had the same thought as Millyscarlet.......sorry :rotfl:

Hope you have a good day today and get everything on that list done!

I've paid the council tax and have decided the piglets will have to wait as they're going to my mums while we're at Butlins, so their cages will need emtying again tomorrow/thursday when they go, so tey'll have to make do for another night, I've given them extra greens as a treat

If anyone remembers way way back near the beginning of my last diary ... ds was supposed to be going to a school nearby but in a different county and then at the last minute he was offered a plce at my first choice school, but I'd already got the uniform and had put the name labels in, .... anyway, someones coming to look at it at lunchtime to see if they want to buy some of it off me Its all brand new but I can't return it because I put name labels in and its all got the school logo on it so is no use to us now :rolleyes: Hopefully a few quid there later

The lady has just been round and has taken all the school stuff for 25.00 :beer: It would cost her double that in the school shop but I needed rid of it (its been sat in a cupboard for a year), so we're both pleased all round:D

You're doing well again! When are you off to Butlin's?

benbenandme

benbenandme

Have booked an eyetest for tomorrow morning, I don't remember the last time I had them done, probably when I was at school :eek: I have the nhs exemption card thing because of my tax credits, so the test will be free and I think that will pay something towards glasses. I know I need some as my eyes are shocking recently, especially in the evenings on the laptop

Karmacat

Back again! I had an eye test with D&A for the nectar points - I get eye strain nowadays, like you with the laptop in the evenings, but it was the same marginal prescription as I had in my 20s, no real need for anything. Hope yours is the same!

I've never had glasses but am fairly sure I need them; I can't read small print stuff without squinting like a nutter
