    Sending hugs mardatha - hope you feel better soon.

    Started antibiotics Mark two yesterday and doctor thinks will need at least one more next week - its costing a blinking fortune. Beginning to wish I had looked into pre payment certificate. Have tackled shopping online this week as between dad and oh shopping they spent two months worth of budget on two weeks of food - worryingly they also used majority of the freezer stuff too - although no vegetables have been used at all!!

    :eek::eek::eek::eek: OMG!!! Online shop definately going to help you out there then!!!

    I think, if you have receipts for your prescriptions, you can backdate the pre-payment cert and they refund you - This happened to me a few years ago but it might have changed since then - worth looking into :)

    Hope you feel better soon xxx

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    I have to confess that I've been slightly naughty - I've been watching the Amaz0n 'lightning' sales with mild interest for the past couple of days and have just given in to the temptation to buy a few bits. :o I've got a couple of bracelets (one of which may go to be a Xmas prezzie for my DM, depending on what it looks like when it turns up), plus a set of books I've been wanting to read for ages and which my DSis might also be interested in reading when I've finished with them, and I paid for most of the cost with a voucher I got for doing online surveys. (This is the sound of me trying to justify my naughtiness. :o)
    Back after a very long break!

    CCP - I've bought three biobulbs, travel speakers and got my parents (with a lot of coaching) to buy me a desk lamp for Christmas.... So you're not the only one!

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
