    oh and the bad news, my OH has decided he is giving his brother his house (where he lives when he works away) as a wedding present.....!!!!!!:mad::mad::mad::mad: (no we are not in a position to just gift it, grrrr!)

    i feel as if I scrimp and save for bl**dy nothing:(:(:(:(:(:(:(

    Well I ain't no lawyer but if you were with ex for so many years even before youse were married, they still count (common law) . Then without knowing the ins & outs half the house is yours so its not his to gift

    Surely if you are married then in the eyes of the law the house is half yours as well!!! and he can't give it away without your say so - even if the deeds are in his name?

    Yes I've read about several people who have spoken to HO apprently HO aren't sure are giving out giftcards & trying to ask the promoters whats going on.

    I got my DTD at the store waving Page 39 out of the magazine. The way I see it "Subject to availabilty. Selected UK stores" means not all Tesco stores because obviously some don't sell gift sets.

    Its the "selected stores" they get you on, happened to me before herbal essence was in the sun saying selected stores got a knock back cause of selected stores but I'm still going to give this a bash & if they refuse then call to HO

    :j:j:j Anyone for a Milkshake?
    Or maybe, mince pie, wine gums, jelly babies or licqourice allsorts?

    I'm wondering, now I have quite a selection of Frijis and virtually free sweets, OH is fed and still grumpy and I've just found out I have 2 more expresses that don't close till 11pm, do I go back for some more or sit down to x-factor ...:think::think:

    I got DH a bottle of beer with one lot of my milkshakes. Kept him happy that yet again I had gone to see Mr T. :D

    I popped 6 Frijis round to my friend who happens to live near an Express but was already in her pjs, I said I would try for her but there was only one left on the shelf, good job I put 6 in the car before I left. It's so lovely to share a bargain. She asked me so how much for these as often gives me some change here and there for bargains I get her. Felt so good to say nothing. :T

    I don't want to put you on a major downer but the person you ran into the back of may claim whiplash! Soz to be the voice of doom but be aware :(

    Interesting however that the OP had her foot on the brake at the time and was looking at the passenger seat. She's ASSUMED imo that she rolled into the back of the other car and although I joked about it earlier, there really is no evidence that the other person indeed did not roll back into her, then notice she wasn't looking and blamed her!

    Unless she is 100% certain that she indeed did roll into the other car then I'd be instructing her insurance to tell the other party to foxtrot oscar!

    That's a very good point actually.

    Speaking of cars, you know the way you're meant to apply the handbrake when you're stationary for any length of time? Well what happens when you drive a silly automatic that tells you the handbrake shouldn't be applied manually? The handbook says to let the car put the handbrake on when you turn off the ignition but I hate sitting behind cars at night with their brake lights blaring in my eyes yet I can't easily put mine on.

    Well I was persuaded, but only made it one express. 6 more Frijj's and after eights for my mum for 15p :D

    I didn't bother getting anything for the OH, he has plenty of beer in the fridge and I'm not sure that anything would get him out of the grump he's in at the moment. And as far as t's is concerned, I could get half the shop free and he still sulks :(

    Oh well, now I just have to make room in my fridge for the extra Frijj's, before delivery to my friend 2mor, :think: may have to take out some beer :D.

    Be right back shortly with some more pics :)
