    Sarah Shattered. I would certainly say that you shouldn't have to pay full whack. Surely someone should have noticed that she hads a lunchbox and school dinners.

    i used to be a mid day assistant and there would be a list of how many school dinners per day. If there was an extra school dinner given out then it had to be checked.

    I also forgot to pay for DS last week and was ask for the money that day :rolleyes:. Maybe to the other extreme.

  • Well i'm quite happy now, had my old mobile listed on fleabay with 8 days still to go. They go for about £80-£90 so when someone emailed me to see if i would accept £80 cash today i obviously jumped at it:D So i am now £80 better off and fleabay got nothing;) Poor guy had sold his computer on gumtree and some dodgy guy picked it up, didnt notice til after he had left that his phone was gone too. Felt really sorry for him!

    Can some kind person tell me how to do multiple quotes as i missed the masterclass last week i think it was?
    nice one G&B :T
    you have to right click the quote button and choose 'open in a new tab' for all the quotes you want to use - then when you do 'post a reply' go to the tab you want and copy it from the 'edit' menu (doesnt work if you right click and copy) then paste to your reply - hope thats right - and makes sense!!1

    I've got a really bad sinus headache and I want to rip my teeth out.

    Oh poor you. I used to suffer really badly with those and they are really bad. I don't know about you, but when there was an atmospheric pressure drop I would suffer - like when a thunderstorm was about to hit, and it would go as soon as the storm had gone. Problem solved completely when I gave up dairy.

    My HHC became a one hour one, but I did vac the whole house, cleaned windows in lounge, cleaned oven, cleaned out drawers and non-food cupboards in kitchen. Tomorrow I'm going to do the food ones.

    Now I'm sitting with a :coffee: and watching Doctors.

    What I do is instead of clicking normally on the quote button on the person's post, I right click on it and select open in new tab. I do this for each person that I want to quote, then copy them all into the first one so it makes just one post ;) (to copy: highlight with your mouse and press ctrl and c To paste: press ctrl and v)

  • Thanks guys.... yes, I'm a little 'miffed' to put it mildly! It was every day last week! They have chips at school on Fridays, my guess is that she thought if she stuck her hand up saying she was having a school dinner at registration, she'd get chips at lunchtime!
    You're right Toots she is a little monkey!!!!
    I don't know how it's got past school!

    And Because I can be a little hap-hazzard about paying for the lunches, (i get there in the end) and cos they know us as a family so well, it's built up without anyone thinking it's very odd!! :rolleyes:
