    sorry how rude of me


    MORNING ALL!!!

    Off out to collect my chocolate :)


    Update for Belfast/NI peeps

    Got mine :) Their head office had sent them the wrong instructions!! Took 20 mins and many phone calls to other stores to sort it out but working fine for everyone to try now :D
    The girl said that so long as the vouchers were for different products she'd have no problem taking 2 from people but we got 3 between us.
    Would say to Caz and any others hand a voucher to each of your kids too they can get one themselves :rotfl:

    Happy whats happened to your bodyclock??? I think some of Westie has rubbed off on you;)This is way too early for you!

    Don't ask, I was all for having a lie in today but it wasn't meant to be. Westie was up at the crack of dawn to go to T's and she was up so early she got there before they had even opened.:eek: On her way out she spent ages messing about with my keys and lock so that woke me up. At 8am mum called to say she was picking us up at 10. I had to get up then to take my shoes back to Debenhams so we could get back to the flat to meet mum. Debenhams took the shoes back and gave me a refund no problem.:beer:


    Your parcel arrived this afternoon nanny? Lala. Thank you very much.:beer::beer::beer:

    Yes thanks, i recieved a telephone call, promising letter of apology to confirm they have destroyed any cctv images held, police were not contacted and I am no longer banned from any stores.
    Also the assurance that all staff in that store have rec'd re-training and this will never happen in any of their stores again.

    Oh and a money card for £100..........
    A grovelling apology and a big fat money card to wave in their faces :j:j

    I had a letter today saying my tax code is going from 357L to 810L whatever that means :)

    I think it means you have to earn either £810 or £8,100 before you start paying tax. I used to know all this stuff when I worked but that was some time ago so it's all passed me by these days.

    I just spoke to my SIL who was telling me that they went to T's last Saturday night around 9ish.. only to see 4 full trolleys of Christmas decorations, cards, trees and wrapping paper being wheeled towards CS... My SIL stopped them and asked if she could buy some of the wrapping paper... only to be told, No, their for the staff not members of the public!!!!!!

    My local did this but staff put donations into a charity pot for what they took.

    I don't think anyone should begrudge this especially with all the bargins that we have had;)

    810L is the "normal" tax code from April 2012 (you can earn £8105 before paying tax). Were you paying tax back to have such a low code as 357L?

    Oooh, I was correct.:beer::beer:

    My tax code when I was working was 3something. I still maintain I should have had a higher one and I paid so much tax on the pipeline and never got a tax refund that I was desperately counting on.:(
