    If I told you, I'd have to kill you :D

    It's actually a new currency I use

    It's called the Wom - signified (like £ for Pound) by the ω
    It the lower case Omega symbol (24th and last letter of the Greek alphabet - Ω is uppercase) which inspired its name and use ...... ω omega hence > ωom(ega)

    ω5 is 5 Woms

    It has larger denominations

    ω10 = 1 Baskkitt
    ω100 = 1 Trollii



    Q i love this.:rotfl::rotfl: its like having a whole other language

    Afraid not, DH will help at the weekend but is working during the week. DS lives and works away too. Mum has a couple of young sisters, but they are both in their late 70's and dad has no other family left now, he was the baby anyway.
    We will manage somehow. I am quite a determined person, although DH would probably call me stubborn. :rotfl:

    Off out in the garden now for some de-stressing ! Will pop back in for elevenses.

    SD what you need is one of these:D

    Just done my weekly shop at T's....and had some success with their own mocs...got 6 packs of the Bakin Boys on bogof...Sa took 3 mocs no problems but I had 5 mocs and then realised I'd got more Eccles cakes,so he took 4 and then saw I had 1 left and took that, till woudn't accept it so he called supervisor who did an override.....so meant had 6 x Bakin Boys for the grand total of 50p....:Dgot 8 packs of Anchor cos it says can freeze it, doesn't say you can freeze the Lurpak , so got 8 packs of that last week with sell by date that will last me until June...got more fillet steak and got £1 off , got Mcain jackets , he took 2 mocs for those and had wedges but no wedges mocs but had 2 other Mccain mocs and he took those no probs,saying it was 'near enough' just did an override when they were scanned and it beeped...he was experienced SA, just in a good mood....total before mocs was £111+ after £67+.....I did get 2 ciabatta and 2 whole grain Wrights, as decided to try again with breadmaker , maybe the breadmixes have improved...so as will only cost electricity and some oil will give it another go....might mix in the BM and take it out after proving and make rolls....will let you know if it is any better than last time I tried.....got the Blue Almonds and actually bought some Kitchen Roll, first I'be bought since the promo days when I won fivers for buying it.....used mocs though so not too bad....the SA held up my receipt and fell about at the length of the moc list....and declared me a great shopper....:Dused the £7 off £50 and also one of my £5 Unilver ones( although did not have any Unilever stuff ,they are £5 gift vouchertype mocs that I won and am using them as cash as don't need the goods)...till gave me a £5 off £50 for next week....
    My friends was refused the use of any coupons in Morrisons as she was using a £5 off £40, SA/Supervisor and Manager all insisted if you use a conditional spend you cannot use any other coupons...she had a in 1 x 50p off Mccain Jackets and she had got the product, have told her to complain to HO....her next door neighbour had her £5 off £40 refused at Sainsburys as she had forgotten her Nectar card, they said too many people picking them up in the car park, they will only accept with a Nectar card...time for feet up and highlights of the Grand Prix now....

    Gordon Bennett...look at that long post...but have just got to tell you this and then I'll leave you in peace...
    Anyone else with Sky and got an HD Box?....we stopped our HD subscription as we have superb Pioneer Plasma and a Lumigen Box which gives HD quality pic...but now have connected the Sky box to my router, even though am with BT for Broadband , and now get Anytime+( it's free)...have unlimited downloads with my BT Broadband , so now can watch all the internet stuff on the TV...check it out peeps .Sky says all the stuff that is available in 'Box Sets' can be watched( like Sopranos and Boardwalk Empire etc) hubby watching Cold Feet from the beginning again,not watched that since it was first shown...and the great thing is 'no adverts' I know you can fast frame with Sky + but this is even better...we had forgotten to Sky + House, so watched that on Anytime +last night as it's on the internet and we also missed Modern Family the other night( even though we have it series linked , it failed to record) have downloaded that ready to watch tonight....there's loads more programmes available....you can get a Wi-fi adapter for £60 if you don't want to connect it to your router with the ethernet cable.....

    sorry to hear about the migraine MT :( you need to look at relaxation methods, meditating. Less stress, no more migraines.

    Love that perfume, second favourite. it is gorgeous! Well done on your freebie :T:T Hope migraine gone tomorrow.

    DS says thanks for Elmo. He has been sleeping most of the day, after many interruptions, and we just went for a wander down to the Post office, shop to collect my boots and Iceland for dinner.

    he's a bit better, but still got a temperature.
