    if you have a Boots advantage card, don't forget to check out Treat Street for certain online purchases, especially things like trainline

    Although for 3Dogs, Red Spotted Hanky is better value, as she converts her Tesco clubcard points into vouchers to use on them.

    Yes, to get my train tickets at virtually third of the price :j :j My almost-92 year old Mam is in Continuing/Paliative Care up North Froogs, and I have been travelling up and down the East Coast Line regularly since October last year - spending about half my time up there :( Which explains why I need so many train tickets ;)

    Well I do try 3Dogs, and all it cost was a bag of sugar and time, 'cause all the fruit was free.

    3Dogs, you may be eligible for this survey company, they are looking for a particular group

    http://www2.leadopinion.com/howitworks.aspx

    it is about the health service.

    Thanks for that one Aesop - I've registered but they sent me an email with a link to do the follow-up and I can't get in on it. Will try again later ;)

    I've managed to get in on the link and do the sign-up survey so all set now :j :j

    I'm off to bed now - all in all it's been a very good day today. the England cricketers beat India to go No 1 in the world :j :j Sunderland got a 1-1 draw at Liverpool which is a very good result for them there ;) Kit is with the boys for the weekend and is happy again :p:p Mr 3Dogs paid £4 at auction for a lot which has at least items worth £3, £5, £15 and £20 in it, plus lots of £2, £1 and 50p items :money: :money:

    Night Night everyone - sleep well and have a good Sunday

    Hiya guys - Mr 3Dogs got up at 4.15 am :eek: and went to do his car boot, but I stayed in bed ;) getting up at 10 am, and after a shower and giving the doggies a quick walk and a feed, I went down to see him their, in Linda's car as I had shopping to do for her. It was a lovely day, very warm and the sun kept breaking through, but there wasn't a lot of people about oddly. However Mr 3Dogs had a good day, trade wise, making 100% on the £130 he'd spent of vinyl records this week, so he is happy :j :j I left before him and did Linda's shopping and got another lot of wine from the Tatco wine deal ;) and we both got home about the same time

    I am doing my last minute washing, and will pack later this evening, but just watching the footie on telly at the moment. Got a gorgeous old postcard album from 1900 onwards to put on e$ay tonight for a friend so will be doing that as soon as footie finished

    Hope everyone is enjoying their Sunday :j :j

    WoW, you'll have to make scones for us, to go with the jam and damson wine Boult ;);) :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Yes, Mr 3Dogs was very happy, especially as he has only sold a fraction of the records he bought, so should have lots more money to come off them :j :j :j :j

    I have been trying to list the album for my friend but having internet problems with their email account - they will have to ring BT tomorrow for some details and get back to me, but I can still list it tomorrow as I have all the details and the photos on my laptop

    My case is just about packed, just a few things to go in from the airing cupboard in the morning. My train is just after 7 am again :eek: so early start for me, but travelling 1st Class again so get my breakfast on the train :D:D
