Bless your cat Amy.

Thanks YB. I was so worried. He is normally so active, and vocal. but he just looked so sorry for himself sitting on his blanket. He came into my bedroom this morning and sat himself on my lap and purred lots, so i think he was feeling better. I worry because he was very ill when i got him for a whole 6 months he was on special pills (a trial) and I had to take him to a specialist. I panic so much now!

:rolleyes:

I checked my pay slip yesterday and whilst it didn't mention anythig about the £60 rebate, my total was £60 up so that's a bonus. I'm going to spend it all on me for a change. I need some jumpers lol

Enjoy Tesco. I had my Sainsburys order last night, but I was at work. Looked in the fridge this morning and there were parsnips! We don;t like parsnips so I know I wouldn;t order any. I asked OH about it but you know men they just assume you've ordered it lol.

I checked the receipt and haven't been charged then looked in the fridge again and we gained a bag of parsnips, a cauliflower, a broccoli, extra bag of carrots all for no extra charge. Bonus. Now need to find something to make with it all lol.

Well a rubbish morning!!!!

Failed my test again, i apparently had the worst examiner there. Another guy waiting for his studnet to come back said to my instructor when i walked out with her "nobody deserves to have her" . She's an ex prison warden and on some sorta power trip. She's had a lot of complaints. I'm just booking another test now, need to keep at it..!!!

Another rubbish thing today, i didn't get the £60 tax rebabte. I'm not sure why. I def don't earn over £40K so god knows why i didn't get it. I started with job last June, and did temp work before that, so maybe thats why, not been with the company since the financial year started last April. God i dunno.

Aww sorry to hear about your test Hayley. Don't give up.

I didn't think I would get the tax rebate as I was on mat leave most of last financial year but it's odd I got it, not complaining though.

Have been working out my cashback coming to me, DD wants a new phone and an ipod for xmas, normally she would only get one big thing but I think I can get the ipod out of cashback money this month so might do it for her if I do.

Awww Hayley... deffo dont give up on your test. All the best people pass 3rd time round

What did you fail on? (im so nosey I know, tell me to bog off if you want!).

Re: The tax rebate, im sure you should get it. Maybe ring up your accounts person and ask them? Everyone who pays basic tax rate should get it I think.

Well im doing some work... and i dont understand it, and im getting very frustrated. :rolleyes:
