furrypig - inoticed that earlier and thought it was odd/new and hadnt seen you with a link! click on usercp half way up the screen (where it says welcome furrypig) and then click edit your signature on the left. you should be able to edit it...unless a forum team has done it...but they usually put "FT3" at the end to tell that it was done by them. If you can't undo it just PM one of the board guides!
:eek::eek::eek:Avon VALIDATED but not stamped - ye gods! it is interflora all over again!!! We are now missing interflora, avon, pc world, saville row...any more?!

I'm the one sat in the dust and the drilling all day with a 4 year old, 7 months preganant and ill. i'm mad but he's asleep so i cant even shout at him :mad:

not at all, just write down in a book who gave it to you so you dont give it them back. THATs cheeky
Can anyone tell me if Topshop and dorothy perkins are the same group? if i got topshop vouchers could i spend them in dotty p's??
Yep you should be able to use them as Im 99% sure there owned by the Arcadia Group, just check the back of the gift voucher.
happy spendingxx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx0 -
YESSSS! ELC finally came through with the Santa present for DD2!! :T I am very happy now. Hadn't realised quite how bothered I was about it - just the thought of letting her down and Santa not bringing what she asked for was horrible.
Carol Concert was lovely - the children all sang beautifully.
DD1 has two parties today - she has a better social life than me!
I don't know about anyone else but I am struggling to get up in the mornings now!! I can't wait for Saturday when the kids are finally off school and we can stay in our jammies!!The great declutter 2010Money neutral and thrifty gifty for Christmas 2010 :xmassmile0 -

Morning All
Had a lovely time at DS Christmas Concert last night - although couldn't see him - we wee sat on wrong side of stage. Always makes me feel Christmassy when I can have a good carol sing!
Back to today - hopefully, Dishwasher Engineer will be putting in an appearance - could do with it sorted pre Christmas! So as I have to stay in, am going to do lots of lovely Christmas cooking and pre prep (that's my pledge for today too!)
Hope everyone is starting to feel better!
JxPoor and content is rich enough!0
