    Good that you managed to save money KM
    All my dining room furniture from Harveys is here and is lovely...I'm waiting for my sofas from another firm but they are on a 12 week order so not expecting those yet.

    Went about the ECDL course today and did a load of tests and they said I can start at the level 2 one as I'm appparently quite competent.I have an appointment to sign up next week so am happy about that.

    I asked about the maths and english as well to see what level they go up to and they go up to level 3 which is apparently A level so might ask if I can do those too.I'd also like to go to level 3 ECDL as well once I've done this one..so here's hoping.

    Managed to hoover downstairs today,do washing,drying,wash pots and do banking...so not too bad.


    Need to keep an eye on bank accounts as I had a strange e mail today from American airlines thanking me for buying a ticket for dec...it had a link to supposedly print ticket.....(I didn't click it) but haven't bought a ticket.I think it's probably a virus/scam but will be extra vigilant incase

    Excellent stuff, Taxi! mmmm, do you need to change any passwords, or would that be making yourself vulnerable, I wonder?

    I think it's just a scam e mail with a virus attached.I looked on American Airlines real site and the one I'd received was very similar to one they'd got on their site but will stay vigilant.

    I don't believe in the concept of hell, but if I did I would think of it as filled with people who were cruel to animals.

    Thanks for the faith in me KC x

    Lost 1.5lbs at WWs this week so am happy with that.
    Dog food arrived today so am definitely impressed with zooplus and will use them again.
    Nothing much going on around here and not going out again today as it's blowing a gale and raining here.

    Taxi I was sent an email from Zooplus saying they couldn't send me my free gift they were out of stock (I wasn't aware I was going to get a free gift anyway) so they have emailed me a code for 10% off if I order before the end of January. I won't be ordering so soon so if you want the code just let me know and I will forward it to you.

    Well done on the weight loss even with your night out!

    Thanks KM...I won't need it as got sent the same one with my order plus they sent another in e=mail for 5% off by march.I noticed some of the dog and cat foods had free gifts with them.There was nothing with the dog food that I get Tess...she has Burns as my 1st choice and James Wellbeloved as my 2nd..she has allergies and these 2 are the only foods that suit her..I got 2 15kg bags of Burns Duck and Rice for £71.99(after 10% disc)..they cost me about £46 each normally.I love the fact that they do a double pack and they have no postage charges if you spend over £19....it was funny how I came across them.I was reading the complaints section on MSE as someone was complaining about them being a German company...the replies of which there were many were showing nothing but praise for the firm ..so I thought I'd have a look at the site...checked on quidco and went through them and as they say the rest is history.


    As for the weight loss I really don't know how I got a loss as I haven't followed the plan for most of the week..lol

    Zooplus haven't even took the money yet nor is it holding on my account as the figures balance.Just wondering how long to leave it before chasing them as don't want them to take it twice.

    Did hardly anything all day except sleep so am wide awake now..mmm..I get exhausted days sometimes and don't have to have done much either
