Why a liar? Sorry, don't answer if you don't want to. You seem to know what you're going to do next, good for you. You need to focus on getting better and finding out why you're in pain and what they are going to do about it.

Jammy set a challenge for us to make £75 by the start of May - surveys, quidco, ebay, however you can

No it's fine. It's because i said i wanted to see him on his birthday and he thinks i'm doing it because i feel sorry for him and he thinks he knows best so he's treating me like a kid. I'm not seeing him tomorrow anyway as he's 'not free until the weekend' probably shacking up with his woman and her kids, treating them better than he has us.:mad: Grr sorry i wont depress you all with it, i'm sick of hearing myself talk or write about it lol. :rotfl: Anyway if you have questions i will answer them, but i won't talk about him unless i'm really really angry lol:rotfl:
One question though, do you think i should mention it to my mum? I don't want her to go ballistic as i don't want to upset her..

I'm so excited for the £75 challenge and the advent task, add me to the list PLEASE i have the perfect ideas, kind of lol:rotfl:

Thanks Ladies

Oooo that sound fab I really cant wait to go there. Yeah I checked on the website and it tells you about being a keeper for the day but not the prices unfortunatly. If you have any hints and tips for vegas please let me know, Im currently reading my way through the vegas thread on the overseas travel board but it tends to be more hotel and flight info then what to see what to do over there. Any restraunts to go to, ones to avoid sights to see would be great x x x

You will love it Shevs its fantastic and so much to see and do. We went Dec 04 flew to New York for 3 nights and then flew on to Vegas for 4 nights. We stayed in the Imperial Palace which wasn't the best for luxury but it was smack bang in the middle of the strip so everything was accessible. We had a ball eating in the all you can eat buffets which you can get in most hotels but our favourite was the Bellagio and the Mirage.
We had a fantastic meal in the restaurant Mon Ami Gabe in the Paris hotel which is situated directly opposite the Bellagio which guarantees you a birds eye view of the amazing Bellagio fountain displays .
Unfortunately we couldn't see Elton John or Celine Dion as there were no shows the days we were there but we did go to see Gladys Knight in The Flamingo and that was fantastic. There is no much to see I couldn't possibly tell you all but in a nutshell I wouldn't miss out on:
The Secret Garden Seigfried and Roy
A show like Cirque de Soleil
Go to downtown Vegas Freemont Street in the night to watch the light display its awesome
Caesar's Palace Forum shopping centre is out of this world hundreds of designer shops and high street labels - it really is a shoppers paradise.
The M&M's shop
The Coca Cola Shop
Desert Passage Shops in Aladdin
The lion den in MGM Grand Casino
The Bellagio Fountains
The Star Trek experience in the Hilton

Obviously i could bore you with more but the list would be neverending. One thing we didn't so and I really regret now is visting the Grand Canyon.

Paddingtondoo - just looked at your blog and your little birdies made me laugh they are so cute!!!

Well we did go shopping and bought 2 pairs of shoes for the boys and only 1 top for myself. Fancied absolutely loads but was a good girl and resisted the temptation.:D

Blimey, you're my first bidder :j Not sure about the ethics of making money from a fellow MSEr???

There are no ethics Rainmac ... However I will either pay you by paypal gift or send postal orders so you don't get stung on paypal fees aswell as ebay fees, providing that is ok with you?
