    I've got the bathroom and toilet cleaned now and emptied all the indoor bins. Just started cooking lunch when the phone rang but I took the saucepan lids off and it was all OK. I'm sure this place is bugged, the phone only ever rings when I'm in the middle of something (or sitting on the loo!)

    It's Tesco, they are usually pretty good with returns, as long as you kept the tags on you should be ok. Just be polite and nice to them. Hope it works (BTW best supermarket for shorts is Asda, got some gorgeous ones the other day).

    Tesco worry about the tags more than receips usually, depends who serves you like everything with tesco TBH. I agree re ASDA I got my shorts in there - I hate shorts usually but these are great, flattering and cheap too.
