thanks scatty - I thought 33p an issue was too good to miss out on :rotfl:.

tesco's had some of their valentine stuff reduces when I was in there today - Bottle of pink fizzy stuff and box of lily o'brien chocs for £5 and 2 heart shaped candles for £2 there was some other stuff as well but didn't have a really good look as I'd forgotten to take my list and was trying to remember it :rotfl:.

Got everything except butter and wrapping paper for OH's birthday pressies :mad:

I seen that - was in there - didn't spend anything - just looked and it looks like a nice deal for a fiver - hoping my hubby sees it...

My friends daughter is getting married and thought it would be nice as a gift as well as the boring microwave 2 of us have already bought. She's pink mad and having a 4 tier cake with a princess castle on the top

Sorry your dad has been such a pillock, u certainly dont need that, I mean this in the nicest of ways you have got ur head screwed on the right way, and if I knew half at 17 as you do (or even at 30) I wouldnt be in the hlaf the mess that I got into.

What I meant to say was if your going to Pizza hut, go on their website and you can print off a half price voucher (off food) just make sure u take some ID in, as some of the Pizza Hut staff are sticklers.

You deserve a brilliant ngt out, what u going to c Friday? xx

Thank you mum20ne, jamtart and scattymam1 also anyone else i missed out(sorry) for all your kind words, made me get a bit tearful actually, thank you for the tip on the money off vouchers, i shall be using them, erm not sure what we're going to see yet, we'll probably decide when we're on our way up there. Had my hair done today, looks nice and only cost £75!!! (cut and colour and style), i think Toby thought he'd help me out.
Everything will turn out okay in the end, if its not okay, its not the end. Anyways after lots of texts to me and my mum(nice ones) and hour later he text my mum telling her to get a solicitor(sp??) as he wants a divorce! Crazy man. Anyhoo.:rolleyes:
I was thrifty thanks to my hairdresser, i saved £15 and didn't buy any lunch so i also saved about £3.
Getting my photo taken for my provisional license tomorrow so i can send off for it tomorrow and hopefully will get it in two weeks:j so then i book my first driving lessons. And i've got to go down connexions tomorrow to claim JSA as they were shut today, if i can't claim JSA then i'll have to work at our local fast food joint as it pays a lot more than what i'm getting now!!:o
My list is getting bigger and bigger by the second :rotfl:
I not sure if it was me dreaming( i do that a lot and i always think its real) but did anyone else hear that Woolworths is going to have an internet website and they are going to run through that??
Went into Rosebury's (The bed and curtain linen people) today and bought a huge fluffy blanket for £2!!! I not sure whether to use it for presents or keep it for me?!:D Probably presents:D
More heavier snow is set for us over the next few days, i hope i get snowed in because then i can get on with everything i need to do at home (to help mum out).

Hope everyone is okay and not feeling blue (*hugs* to the people that are down and under the whether)

Ps paddingtondoo: show us a pic, it sounds gorgeous and it sounds like something i would do

Hi Girls

Firstly I would like to point out that noone came here in my suitcase!! (Though I know a few of you tried!!!) So choccy O is AWOL on her own somewhere!!

i want to send special hugs to Phunks and Paddingtondoo thinking of you both and glad you are here sharing with us xxx

Wold you believe I'm ill!!???

Been up all night with D & V luckily noone else seems to have it in fact they are all at Magic Kingdom (boo hoo I'm missing the parades and Mickey!!)

I went to a walk in centre and paid $125 wow!! I felt so bad and was in such pain I think it's food poisoning but who knows! At least I've managed to get out of bed for a bit as the man from the villa letting agency just came as the food disposal thing in the sink was blocked and overflowing (bleugh!!) and DD freaked out as there are some teeny weeny ants in the bathroom! So thought I'd better try and look half alive whilst he was here!! I look really dreadful but don't care as I've stopped vomitting now so hopefully improving!!

Had to cancel Discovery Cove tomorrow as nor sure how I'll be. Was really lucky as DH asked if we could reschedule and they said no as they were fully booked but they found a slot for us next Wednesday which is great or I'd have had to miss it probably! Also will be better next week as the weather is menat to be 'hotting up'.

Anyway the man has just left so I'm off to bed, I will happily be referred for anything to give you 20p Sarah!!! Will try and remember to pm at some point

must get back to bed, must get back to bed ......

The cake is a bit like this one but taller and stood on 4 tiers.

Thanks everyone - feel better today - I think it was just the shock
It's great to have virtual friends to share things with - it's easier to say how you feel iykwim :rotfl:.

Sorry you feel rough furry - not too ill to type though!

Hugs to anyone who needs them. Am off to get new tyres today and have to work although I have pulled my shoulder again hanging DDs PE bag up - when will I learn

Quick question, I've just started doing the Bview Reviews (think it was Jammy who recomended them???) How do you tell them how you want paying (I'm probably being really dumb like) ?? I want to get the vouchers you see??

Help I'm totally confused LOL........... must be all the coffee I drink.
