    Hi melvis

    lol must have been a good night for OH then, mine is still in his bed snoring away and will be there untill he surfaces, i have given up waking him on a saturday because i get some peace when he is sleeping and not baniging on about fly tying or playing that annoying guitar that is either really out of tune or he simply can't play.

    Haha ... I have the same guitar problem but only on the occasions that he decides today is the day the lord will have blessed upon him some guitar playing skills :rotfl:

    My OH's addictions is motors/engines... normally he'll sleep til about 5pm if he's been out and I just leave him to it but today he wants to me to wake him at 11am so he can presumably be up by 1pm (:confused::confused::confused:) to pick up his friend to 'work' on making his VW Beetle into a trike. My kitchen currently has 2 car seats in it, which as much as the cats appreciate will be migrating to the spare room today without fail (he promised to move them a week ago, but when I'm at work I can't see them but they are sure to annoy me today!!). Thankfully he sorted out the massive breezeblock shed out the back so all the engine parts and stuff are in there. And last Saturday he was in there for a good 10 hours or so so I'm hoping for a repeat performance :D

  • Morning all.

    Hi Rachel, and welcome to the comps bit.
    You will get hooked, it is inevitable.:rotfl:

    Not doing much today, so comping the order for the day.
    But have to visit the hospital, nothing serious, looking for a job, and going to go for an informal visit prior to putting my application in. Let them know who I am and how good a nurse I am!:rotfl:

    But thats this afternoon, so going to mooch around here for a while.

    As for OH, he's up and out on the beach bait digging,so will no doubt come home with some horrible rag worms. bleugh!
  • oh no gingerchick, you will have rag in your fridge all week then, he who must obey has just got over his sea fishing obsession thank god.

    yes im sure i will be hooked really soon i just need to work out what im actually doing because at the moment im clicking on threads then the comps from there im sure i saw a way to sort them in order of end date so i might have to find where i was reading that.

    the rabbit with the oreo's is so cute

    lol..ive been hoarding for months for xmas, bought most of family presents and wrapped them, still got a fair list of stuff but getting there, i hate the cold so dont like being out in december, and hate the crowds!!!! xxxx but will be up early on Next sale though xxx
    #JusticeForGrenfell
  • it isnt so much the cold i hate its the cost, i have to start early becaue with my lot i would be paying a fortune out. altho they dont really get much but i do like to try and give them at least one thing they asked for, im lucky in the sence that they know we dont have much so they cant get much. this year will be hard tho because the 2 middle girls (4 and 5) want computers so hopefully i will win one because there is no way i will manage to buy 2

I've just ordered 2 disney princess book things for my lo, got free delivery, 15% discount and a free bear all for £10.20! :money:


    I don't know whether I may have cocked up with the bear thing. I'm double checking my order now. I don't think it was free with books, just with toys.

    EDIT: I've just deleted the bear from my order and the price has come down so it wasn't free. Only add it if you are ordering the correct items for the teddy promo!

    NOW IN COMPING SEMI-RETIREMENT! :D
