    Morning everyone,

    I'm sure work will be fine once you get back into it Jen. One of my dogs is a samoyed, they're natural born diggers & sometimes we find he has 'dug' through the newspaper before we get to it. It can be a right mess...

    I got loads of 10p's on scratchards today, but I made an etsy sale a couple of hours ago so that's £7 profit, though it was paid for by e-cheque so I have to wait 9 days.

    Morning All

    Well my internet is down yet again at home! I spent 1 hour 20 mins on hold on Friday night. :mad: :rolleyes: But finally got told I would get a call back on Saturday morning... did i? Nope! So i phoned up and was told they have ordered me a new router. Hopefully thats the problem and it will all be sorted by this weekend. :beer:

    Hope everyone had a good weekend? Mine was very busy, but good.

    And the salmon tikka i made was lovely! :D

    Hi YB xx

    I used Jamie Oliver's receipe: http://www.jamiespassitoncampaign.com/salmon_tikka.html

    The one thing i will say is they say use tandoori paste. Well not only is it Tikka so you should use Tikka Paste but Patak do not do a tandoori paste. :rolleyes: :rotfl:

    also i wouldnt bother making the cucumber dip thing, to be fair it was ok but not great, and I would rather just have the salmon tikka and some rice. :o

    Oooo i would check that out YB could be someone dodgily using your account?

    Well done on your sales Nikki

    Thanks Yukki & Amy, I got an email this morning & have arranged a Boots interview for 12 tomorrow. I could have chosen Saturday but I wanted to get it over with, though I'm still nasty and congested. It says part of it is on the shop floor so I should wear smart clothes, I hope they don't want me to approach people in the shop as part of it, that's why I applied to be a cashier, I hate those people!

    I'm going to post on the christmas jobs thread and see if anyone else has experience of what Boots do... This would be a great job to get dis!!!! wise lol.

    Edit - Why does it sensor out dis count?

    Oooo good luck for tomorrow Nikki. They probably just want to show you around maybe?

    My fingers are crossed for you xx

    Oh dear, I had a debt collector send a post card thing to my address for my ex. Its a debt, so i phoned them told them he has moved to ireland and for them to take this address off their list.

    They have, but I have just filled out a financial dis-association form to send to credit report people. No way am I having him drag me down. :rolleyes:

    Thanks Amy, that's what I'm hoping, but if that is the case it shouldn't make a difference as customers would just think I was another customer anyway, which is why I think I might have to talk to people. Gah! I know I have to do it, I just don't want to...
