    Spend day for me... thanks to Martin's weekly email! :o

    I bought some new towels since I found them in Martin's e-mail, and four tickets @ £1.01 each for the comedy club, also in the e-mail! This week's email is full of goodies!!!!! :cool:

    Also iPod shuffles for £20 at Morrisons, would make great birthday and Christmas presents (yup, it's getting that time!) although not sure I have the time or energy to get to Morrisons as the nearest one's miles away. :)
    You're spelling is effecting me so much. Im trying not to be phased by it but your all making me loose my mind on mass!! My head is loosing it's hair. I'm going to take myself off the electoral role like I should of done ages ago and move to the Caribean. I already brought my plane ticket, all be it a refundable 1.

    I spoke to Mouseann on the phone today and she is doing fine - her hip is healing well and they will consider a hip replacement at a later date - she has decided to be discharged to her own home, rather than her son's, and should be home in about a week if physio OK - she must learn to use stairs befre they let her out. She has a downstairs cloakroom, so will be able to spend daytime downstairs and wll have carer to help her up the stairs at night and down the stairs in morning. She said she really enjoyed our visit on Friday (me, Mr 3Dogs & SW) and thankd everyone for their support and good wishes. She can't wait to get home now and of course she will have access to the internet then so will be back online chatting to us

    Mistress Spoon, I did go to the dentist for a check-up but needed a filling. However, we get Help with Health costs so knew what I would have to pay (£13.86) and had put that money aside - making today NSD NUMBER 6

    We called in at the auction when in town and saw a chair we liked so are going to the sale tomorrow morning - will have to see whether I make my planned NSD or not !!

    Good news about Mouseann, 3Dogs, thanks for the update.

    Well done for no 6, you're doing brilliantly. Sorry I missed you yesterday, tired after doing the update yesterday and I logged off. Special mention for you today instead, hope that's OK.

    Hope you get the chair at the price you want to pay, if you like it.

    Will update your total now

    PS: And a big "hi" to everyone else, hope you all have a good day. Back later

    I've just e-mailed this to a friend and they suggested I should post it here. Doesn't ensure a NSD but it might be useful.

    When you go to the dentist ask for a prescription for mouthwash. They normally prescribe two bottles. Weigh up the cost of the prescription and the shelf price and choose the lower. If of course you are very old and prescriptions are free, even better.

    Just don't go out. The most effective way to a NSD known to man (and woman).
