    'grats to Squizz and good luck Kayleigh.

    I left home around 1hr early and did v long drive to where my boss wanted me to be today, arriving for 08.10 - but she is still not here!

    Am now desperately hoping she will not arrive so I can leave slightly early. Am on visitors pass so visits to the loo the usual embarassment of asking a colleague for loan of pass/escorting :o

    Better get back to work. Speak later :)

    Good luck and remeber, after lunchtime we are closing in on the weekend :)

    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)

    Morning everyone,

    I'm happy as I've lost 2lbs especially as I've been to America. :j:j

    Also everyone in the team thought I was going to come back married.

    Well done Red on the job. Sending lots of positive vibes your way Kayleigh.

    I love spreadsheets and numbers.

    I need a kick up the bottom and a massive dose of motivation to finish my assignment!
