    God it makes me cross. OH has just tried to purchase a CD from Play.com for £5.99 and his card was refused. He rang the bank and apparently someone had tried to pay £900 to an Insurance Company, £30 to a company called Whites, £30 to T Mobile and £30 to O2 today using his card number, all of which were refused thank Heavens. It makes you wonder why, if the bank were suspicious of the transactions they didn't contact us. They have both of our mobile numbers, our home number and my email address.

    At least they didn't make the payments so we were lucky.

    Thanks for the lovely new thread Diva :T

    Gosh barnabysue that was lucky they didn't take any money! :eek: I think I would look into changing my bank too if they didn't have the decency to contact you. Well done on the wins btw :)

    Hope the casserole turns out ok Becks :) Ive used my slow cooker once....it didn't get done as much as I would ave liked and I had it on for hours! :D

    Sheils, the molten browns stuff sounds lush! Keep it for yourself hun xx

    I keep getting calls from an 0800 number but keep missing their call! I'm guessing it's probably sales calls though!
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    Thanks wingobins, we are talking about doing that.

    I used to use my slow cooker a lot, but since I won a Le Creuset casserole I tend to use that more now as it's bigger and I can do enough for 2 days for the 2 of us. How was it Becks?

    Glad the Bank spotted your DHs card being used fraudulently Sue. Paying mobile phone companys always rings alarm bells with the banks. Tesco was always phoning me when I topped up kids phones and once just stopped it. I had a right go at them when they stopped the card without telling me especially since I was in the middle of ordering photos and had to change my stored card etc.

    Love my flowers too MMS - I was greedy and kept two lots for myself and gave my mother one. My aunt is due to get the other one soon I hope.

    Never used a slow cooker Becks but had heard they were good.

    Hope the phone call turns out to be a win Wingo. I have been getting loads of junk phone calls and I am getting grumpier and grumpier with them especially since most of them are foreign and I can't even make out what they are saying.

    Hi all, casserole was nice (no major disasters...well not yet. If I'm not here tomorrow you will know I have poisoned us both) OH is honestly like a child though. He has meticulously gone through his and pushed all the carrots to one side as he doesnt like them. Ungrateful so and so :rotfl::rotfl:Still a bowlful left as well so next week when my friend comes to stay at least I know I can feed the three of us for same price.

    Think the molten brown stuff is supposed to be quite expensive so I would definitely keep it for yourself sheils :A their store is here

    Grate the carrot Becks, that'll get him, I used to do that with onion when my Daughter was small because she refused to eat anything that had been anywhere near one.
