Hello all,sorry I'm late! Blimey,I is cream crackered,did 1 hours dog walking-lots of hills n mud, then 1 hr drop a dress size class....and I lost 3lbs,after last weeks disastrous 2 on!!
Yesterdays interesting afternoon was (not THAT interesting) but I picked kids up from school in DS Mini,and it cut out and refused to start in town. No matter,called the RAC and 30mins later, a lovely young patrolman arrives-who just happens to restore minis in his spare time! I described the symptoms and he immediately knew what it was,and took the dizzy cap apart..cleaned it up and voila! The best bit about it was the time he took to talk to DS about what he was doing and why, and he quizzed Sam on his car knowledge,and was really impressed with him. When he had finsihed,he gave Sam his personal mobile number,and said call him anytime if he had a mini problem-and- if Sam wants to spend some time patrolling with him on work experience he could organise it! What a lovely guy!!10 out of 10 to the RAC ...Debt-free...and staying that way...0 -
wow thats really great of the RAC guy would have loved to have someone like that with my Mini (first car) however i surpose i managed to get just as good, my uni ran a automotive engineering course alongside mine and i got the lectureers to tune the engine for me
Drop a brand challenge
on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)0 -

Great news Bunny.
Luc, keep an eye on Argos and places, we got our three room tent for (I think) £60 a couple of years ago, dad got it for us when it was in one of their emails about offers. Do you have other equipment? I recommend a gas burning hob instead of a spirit one, much more stable and cheaper, Wilkinsons do them for about a tenner plus the butane cans. You can just use any old pans you've got hanging around for it, a spirit one you really need to use the special pans to keep them from falling off.Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0 -
Here is an article in the paper...
