Any idea where the pics are gonna be? Only 3 outfits? I'm not sure if 3 outfits are going to be enough, what happens if you spill something on one of them:eek::eek::eek: Do you get a choice of which match you watch? Tennis not my thing, will let you have the wimbledon tickets when I win them;)

Mags good luck on your ppi claim, hopefully sorting the thieving b****rs out will help you take your mind of things for a few minutes. I don't know about the others but I would love to hear about your daughter, so if you wanna talk about her then feel free and no need to worry about rambling or long posts on here. I always love reading your posts. I don't think it is that people in real life don't want to hear but that they don't know what to say.

Blue just got a nice result from Boots. The pharmacist in my local Boots refused to sell me night nurse yesterday as he said it would not help my symptoms and I had already had some recently and to go to my GP as a sore throat for 2 1/2 days was too long. I told him isn't it supposed to be for colds/flu/headaches and no I hadn't had any recently from him. I also said I wasn't going to my GP for a sore throat/cold as I would be wasting their time as there was nothing they can do. He still refused to sell me any all I got was some overpriced useless throat lozenges, so I went to another Boots and got the night nurse and beechams all in one stuff and then came home and made a complaint to Boots customer service.

I got a reply just now saying that the behaviour of the pharmacist was unacceptable and he is gonna get a telling off from them/re training:D:D and they apologised for the way I was treated and are gonna send Blue a giftcard. :j:j Hopefully it will cover the overpriced useless lozenges they sold me (£3.50):eek::eek:

I always say I'm gonna complain about stuff but I never seem to, but yesterday I was really mad with the condesending attitude the pharmacist came across with and was determind to complain.

only posh people like Blue can afford to go to Boots:rotfl::rotfl::D

Me, I would have gone to Homebargain or BM for a fraction of what you paid:p:p:p:p. Damn you are rich!!


@ MAG - I second what PM & Blue said. I do read your posts even though I don't comment because I dont know what to say. And sometime me not saying is better than saying it cos' BLUE might hit me again

Thanks for this MT. Had a look in Asda this morning. Had SEL for these but space was filled with something else. Remembered the MSE mantra "always look up" and found an unopened packet on top shelf - had to do a wee bit of climbing!

MAGS - ditto what everyone else has said. Feel free to post away. Your other post really gave me a lot to think about and helped to put a few things in perspective.:):)

I didn't take ANY real money to Boots:p:p:p I had £31 on my advantage card that has been on there for about 6 months so decided to use that. Anyways I got a £50 gift card from ssm as well, but want to buy something decent with that not fritter it away, but no idea what atm. If you were as sick as me yesterday then not think you could have gone as far as home bargains, but then you never get sick so you not know what sick is, you think your ill when you get a tickly throat:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Thats as far as my sicky go tickly throat:D. £50 giftcard ? How come I didn't get it? Boots sells Hugo Boss EDT/perfume, Lacoste, Paco Rabanne I could go on with lots of suggestion but I doubt you will buy it for me:cool::cool:
