  • Part of LO's birthday present has just arrived (I think) but I can't open it yet cos she's still wide awake LOL
    2025 - finally back comping after a stressful house move - send me fairy dust please
  • P.S Does anyone know how soon Amazon usually put pre-order items on the website?

    I'm wanting to price up these 2 DVD's but the only place I can find them is eBay at the moment

    have just been speaking to the slowest person in the world on the Magnum care line!! GRRRRR! i asked how the popularity of the competition could possily have made any difference to the amount of 'pre determined' prizes being given out and her excuse was ... that because so many people hassle them by phoning up constantly they dont have time to post them... so i then asked if part of her job was to put the cards in nvelopes and post them out.?? ...'NO' ... well then how is my phone call preventing someone else from sending the cards out?.. 'Its not but we weren't expecting the competition to be this popular...' ... yes but u DID already know how many cards you would need for the whole competition.. 'ERR NO we wouldnt have'... err yes you would there are a specific amount of prizes being awarded for each hour... regardless of how many people enter... 'ER well im afraid i cant help you anymore coz ur not making sense' Phone goes dead. :(
    I can only please one person a day.... Today is not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look good either!!
    very greatful for almost everything i read on MSE (except for the nasties!)
