    Had a call from carestaff at DS3 school saying they thought he should come home at weekend as very homesick. Can't get there until Sat mid morning and by the time get him home will be late afternoon and would have to leave early Sunday to get him back. So thought might be better to book a hotel near by and spend the weekend with him then return him to school late afternoon Sun. Started looking at York even the travelodge/premier inn wanted £150:eek: and the Park Inn £190 then realised it racing weekend:(. So looked further afield managed to find Holiday Inn Express at Bradford intechange was £47 last night waiting to hear back from school that the arrangements are Ok, checked again now gone to £52 but this also includes a breakfast :j which the other high priced ones didn't. The goodnews its right next to train station so no money wasted on cabs either:T just extra travel time but that will be fine we will spend day in York and go back in the evening it sounds like it is an enterainment complex. OH yes and it has free wifi extra bonus again the others didn't:jso may still get time to drivel:D:p when back at room

    Edit all that they just called they think he should come home tomorrow now as can't get him thurs or Fri due to hosp appts and my luxary tea for two on Thames

    It looks like the Tesco Price promise now comes with new UNIQUE BARCODE to avoid people abusing same voucher again....Also they will be comparing with S's, Morrisons and A's instead of just A's.....

    Thanks IS thats goodnews about comparing wih other stores also.

    Is it only me but does the new system just seem too complicated to be bothering with at T's making A's easier and even S's Brand match or is it just we got used to A's & S's rules and we don't like change:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I was just stripping the bed and found a £20 note in there, very strange. I asked oh if it was his he said no i don't think so. Iv'e got no idea where its come from I know I wasn't feeling good yesterday and thought maybe I took it to bed in a confused state but checked my purse and its not from there.

    Very odd. Oh said keep it :/

    Tesco have changed their price promise so you have to enter a clubcard to check a receipt
