    so which group was right? It was those that guessed female! :D

    Dunno where I'm supposed to have said I was male! I'm absolutely certain I never said that, nor would I, and I can't find in any of my previous posts where it might have been misunderstood so can only assume those who thought they saw it were perhaps under the influence of too much DTD'd wine :rotfl:

    If I'd been around I would have been on the 'female' list, your turn of phrase has always struck me as female.

    My turn of phrase must be male, no-one seems to believe I'm a girl lol!

    Works a treat and never had a cake stick since I started using it :)

    I LOVE that stuff! I've been buying it from lakeland for years - worth its weight in gold!
    ..... Then as she was walking away I hit 2 for the green CC points and omg she was back like a shot! 'you can only have 1 per bag doesn't matter what size it is'

    See, I'm with you on that, if you come in with a bag big enough to fit two carrier bags worth in, why shouldn't you have 2 CC points?

    Seconded. I always use a big shopper, fits about 3 T bags. The manned tills always put 10 bags on my CC when I only use 3, but on the SS the Trouts fly in! :mad:

    There used to be a card with pictures of different types of bags and their worth in points at every T checkout. eg. a reused tesco carrier (or similar) was worth 1 point, but a Bag for Life was worth 2.
    I seem to remember that the SS tills will accept up to 3 bags points and any more alerts the SA. When I used my CC I would put 3 in most times I used SS to make up for the times I've apparently got a full trolleyload into 3 or 4 carriers, Grr, skinflints:rotfl:!

    It's only a game

    We don't have extra points for using our own bags in Wales because we have to pay 5p for them. :easter:

    I know I dont post much but I need to have a moan.
    I have hospital tomorrow and am seriously stressing about it. I had some bloods taken and they brought my appointment forward by 4 months.:eek: It may be nothing , I am trying to act cool infront of DH and kids but am getting snappier by the second. I might have to just go to bed out the way.
    Thanks for listening guys.

    It's probably a simple thing like they had a cancellation and you were first on the reserve list x
    Hi guys

    I know you give such wonderful advice, so I wondered if anyone had an pearls of wisdom to shower on a ridiculous situation I now find myself in.

    My brother (we're both 30ish) has recently met a new woman, and has been posting sappy messages on FB for the past few weeks. As his sister I thought it my duty to give him a bit of a ribbing over it :p , so posted some cheeky (I thought funny) comments on his posts about him having had a labotomy and needed to get out more etc etc.

    Anyway, now I've got his new missus and her sister sending me the most abusive and disgusting messages :eek: . I never meant to upset anyone, but at the same time, their messages have now put me in the mood for a fight :mad: .

    I think she's quite young (read early twenties) and defo not from the UK, so it may be a language barrier thing. But I'm stumped as to what to do.

    I've spent the last few hours trying to ignore it, but it's making me really cross. your thoughts would be most welcome. TIA (",)

    TBH I spent so many years holding my tongue and trying to be good but now my advice would be to shout back, tell her to go and buy herself a sense of humour!

    Can anyone help me please? My scroll bar has disappeared from the bottom of my screen so I can't scroll to see things on the right of my screen. Is there an easy way to get it back please? (I think it's hidden right at the bottom of my screen as I can't see when anything is loading and don't get the 'Done' message). Hope that makes sense! xx

    Sorry if already answered am catching up...If youre on IE, along the top of the page, right click in an empty grey area and a window will pop up... 'Status Bar' that should be ticked
