    Morning troops :)

    Why is it that today is the first day for a lie-in for ages, I was very tired and looking forward to a few hours extra kip, but I am now wide-eyed-awake at the usual time?

    not sure if already been posted as playing catch up but i also received a £3 off wys £20 and a £6 off wys £40 this week but both of them say on it not to be used with the £80 off £10 coupon.? is this really the case or do we suspect that they will all scan together and its going to be a case of finding a decent cashier who is willing to put them all through together?

    Just catching up backwards.

    Won't know for sure till next week, but my guess is that it will just be down to the vigilance and interest of the SA and that the coupons will scan together. All the others do and can't help thinking that if their software was smart enough to block multi wys coupons (unless the aggregate spend had been made), then they would have done it by now. Who's brave enough to check it out though - that's a lot of shopping to leave on the belt if it goes wrong :D

    Fudge_Cake I sympathise completely about dentists!! I know it isn't PC or done here, but ask the dentist for gas&air. I had it in America (because of enormous fear of dentists) and it meant they could actually fix my teeth... worth a try. Otherwise medatation. I used that as well and got through half a dozen fillings (really bad teeth) as a teenager... Good luck though, tooth pain is not nice. :(

    Last, managed a NSD yesterday! ...but that was only because I got home at 11pm from work! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:still... every little helps!
    Have a good weekend all! I'm off to work again in a bit-

    Morning all :) cold and frosty morning here brrr.
    I don't usually see this time of day :o but OH who was getting ready to go to work woke me up as there was a small child ringing the doorbell and knocking on the door just before 6a.m. :eek:, I got up to discover OH standing at the front door talking to a gorgeous little boy of about 8 with downs syndrome who was holding half a dozen stuffed animals. He wasn't distressed at all but just kept smiling and saying 'Mum' and pointing up the street. We phoned the police who spoke to him on the phone for about 20 minutes until 2 officers arrived to collect him. They hadn't had any reports of missin children so were going to try to follow the boys finger-pointing to take him home. OH gone to work now but will get him to phone the police when he comes home to check that they got him home OK.
    Looks like it's going to be one of those days...

    Are you going to be at HC's for long today? I've sent OH to work with something for him but not sure that he'll be up by the time OH gets finished lol

    Good morning everyone :)

    Blight on the landscape, energy payments have doubled :(

    On the bright side though, there are blue skies and sunshine :D Possibly spring temperatures are finally on their way!

    Have a good day everyone.
