    :D:D:D:D:D:D:D I strarted to fall asleep when Kit was talking to me on the phone. :rotfl:

    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Tesco end DTD and just give the difference back

    :(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(

    Ah well, it couldn't last forever and Tesco are having to admit that their promotion did not prove that they were cheaper than Asda :rotfl: :rotfl: On the Price Check thread, people were laying bets all the time that Mr T would end the offer on the day of the Royal Wedding - good time to 'bury' bad news - the press are not going to spend time on Mr T with The Wedding tomorrow are they ;);)

    Never mind, I've got a 'few' cough cough vouchers left to use up on Mr T's offers and whoopsies over the coming 4 weeks :D:D

    I've had a lovely day - picked neice and the girls up at 8.30 am, took neice to work then took the girls to my Mam's/brothers house where we played games until about 11 am then we took them to a nearby nature park where we walked around the wooded paths and ponds, climbed up the vantage point hill with a huge sundial on top, we could see for miles - right out to sea, well into co Durham, and to the Cheviots in the distance - then we had a picnic by one of the ponds, fed the ducks, and the girls and I did some exercises :eek: :eek: before another walk and, after about 2 1/2 hours, we drove back to brother's where we played with lego and generally had fun, and I took the girls back to their house about 2.30 pm

    I then had to nip down to the coast to pay some money into my bank and now just been catching up on the Mr T change of terms news - thanks Kit for sending me the text about this as my neice would have been DTD shopping tonight, and so would I :( I hope you got your receipt entered before noon Steve - I see you did another shop this morning, so that should be OK for you if you did

    I am going down to see Mam soon, for her dinner time, but will be back online later - see you all then

    I rung tax credits and they said due to our increased income :eek: we are not entitled to working tax credit just help with nursery fees, but as they are 70%, I have to pay the other 30%, we are no better off!

    I had better do DH's tax return and mine this weekend!

    And then submit all the info.

    We are worse off again with me working this poxy job! I am thinking about going full time, don't want to but will need to earn a lot more if I do to cover nursery fees!

    eeeekkkk what to do!

    oh well, better start spending more time on old style board and DH will have to get used to a different lifestyle!

    I think he just thinks I earn more than I do! I have told him again and again but he just doesn't register anything!

    I need to find a way to sell things profitably!

    oh well.

    Sounds like a very lovely day 3Dogs. What a view :)
