    Hi all, nsd for me thanks to the weather, was meant to be out tonight but all cancelled :,(
    Can anyone tell me on Netflix if you can watch through the wii and if so what do I need to do?
    Thanks!

    It says you can, but I haven't tried myself. I have done it with lovefilm in the past, and I seem to remember typing in the web address and seeing the web page on screen as you would on the computer.

    Not got a lot done really today. I wrote 2 reviews yesterday though. Had to go out and get me and DS2 better shoes for the snowy weather, and we needed food shopping. Both kids scared me to death today.

    DS1 fell out of the house, landing badly on his knees and banging his head. He's ok now, but didn't half scream. And when we were out, DS2 got it into his head to hide from us. We were in a warehouse type shop where you can see most of the shop where you are, and we could see he wasn't in the aisles. I went to the loos and outside, DH started looking in the staff section, the man who runs it went to check the storeroom and kitchen and none of us could find him. Eventually one of the other customers found him hiding behind some boxes. That was my worst ten minutes ever. I was nearly crying by the time we got him.

    So after all that we had family snuggles and a film this afternoon.

    Managed £2 on viva last night. So most things are going up slowly. I also have some emails for surveys which I will look out for in a minute when we get the kids in bed.

    Yes you can watch through wii, we got it on Thurs. It's really easy to set up, you go on the shopping channel on the wii and download it from there, you need 60 blocks free on your wii (whatever they are!) we had other 1000 free so unless you have loads of stuff saved on the wii you will be fine.

    Think am getting the hang of chow now, have been rating people and my latest review has got quite a few very helpful rates now. Will probably edit some of my older reviews over the next few days and try and get a bit more value out of them. Thanks for all the rates and tips.

    Evening all

    OH just text to say he is staying at work tonight as supposed to be heavy snow on the way. Bloke came about our storage heater, said we need a new one so going to give us a price on Monday. In the meantime we only have one room heated so I am sleeping downstairs tonight on the settee.

    I got £2 on Viva too last night Michelle, my total is mounting up nicely on there again and I just got paid this month from them.

    I will put another review on C in the morning, that will be my 5 for the promo.

    I just did 2 on viva too so up to £19.85 on there now hoping I can request a payment this month on there just really have to remember to check for surveys regularily. Snowing pretty bad here now and getting difficult to see where the kerb ends and the road starts. Doing some rating and that will probably be about it for tonight x
