    My AF order has a delivery number which isn't working, so I wonder where on earth that could be eep. Maybe tomorrow.

    Kerri, have you just put in your AF order coz when I had the delivery number it didn't work until the following day too, so hopefully it is the way their system works and yours will be okay tomorrow:D

    What is TCM btw? Is it the same as poundco?
    When you were born, you were crying and everyone around was smiling. Live your life so at the end, you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying!:rotfl:

    Just had another email from them and now the tracking is showing that it'll be delivered tomorrow, oooh yummy cous cous for tea tomorrow then ;)

    TCB is similar to poundco but doesn't charge the £5pa, however I've found it less reliable and almost all my claims have to be put through customer care.

    I took Second Purse out for a walk today.........

    Tesco Express dint have the Lurpak or Heinz Ketchup offers and I cannot get to a proper Tesco :mad:

    The 99p shop had the 15 x Finiah Dishwasher tablets back (very unusual for them to restock in my experience) so I bought another 4 boxes, put them in the cupboard and I now have........16 boxes of them.....oops......:o

    But they look LOVELY all lined up, all facing the same way, nice and neat - and the people on this thread are probably the only ones who can appreciate what I mean! :D

    I also got another couple of sugars from the 99p shop - 750g for 65p, it's a good price but I bought them for the packaging, the plastic wrapper and pouring spout are just SO useful, especially for someone like me who needs to have sugar in the house, but might not use it from one week to the next.

    Only thing is, now I have 6 of them....and I dont even take sugar in my tea! :rotfl:

    Oh my days, I am sooooooooooooooooo excited:T:T:T. Just about to have my very first taste of DR mince. It's cooking on the hob as we speak. Am so tempted to have a little spoonful:p, but am holding back until it is on my plate - nom, nom, nom :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
