    No chicken stock cube?????????
    L

    I figure its a bit of an insult :) and I don't want to waste my proper stock :rotfl:- slobber seems to work, cos most of the stuff previously left now is scoffed - sometimes I chuck on the slow cooker at bed time and feed them first thing - started with making porridge for me, then leftovers got heaved to the hens with the rest of the bits chucked in

    Now they have hot food and I have no porridge - funny that eh?:rotfl:

    slap me with several wet fish and call me a slobbery thing



    WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    :j:jHaving written several snotty letters to Capital One I got a letter this mornign saying they still don't think they missold me PPI's and thats that, however as a gesture of goodwill they are refunding all of these to me with the interest charged as well :j:j

    Its only £139.56 but its so unexpected - yippee - thanks for telling me to keep at it you lot!!!!

    Even the snottyness of the letter does not take away the nice feeling of getting some dosh back!

    :DAnother thank you to you lovely lot and the lovely Mr Martin Lewis:D

    sounds like you've been making great leaps this week:
    new savings accounts for your pot system
    PPI reclaims
    quidco insurance stuff

    i'm still waiting for more than to pay up on the two policies we have tracked with them. both were taken out in October so hopefully they will pay soon.

    Hey Fay great news about the PPI reclaim. When I did my bank charges a while back I got an equally grudging letter but who cares - got the cash!!!
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)

    Celebrate - grab the slow cooker for yourself & bung on some porridge :)

    How do you do porridge in the slow cooker, I mean the ingredients are obvious :rolleyes: but amounts :confused:

    ETA: I do love being decadent, I only eat Lurpak on my toast, don't you know :D
