I'm not planning on getting pregnant at any age :eek: hopefully I will lose masses of weight but not by starving to death.
Yesterday lunchtime I had a jacket potato with sunflower spread a multivitamin the doctor prescribed & some ribena nothing naughty but I felt ill & bloated for the rest of the day
You must be relieved OH operation is over, hope its a complete success0 -

On a serious note I am very upset with the comments on the Quiz board. I have tried my best.
It was a bit of fun for the majority of us
The Quiz is now closed
Huge thank you to everyone who did enjoy playing ♥
Can't you just unsubscribe the certain person being horrible? I love the quiz and would be sad to see it go
Just back from Ts. I spent all afternoon making a shopping list for my £80 spend (wrote it out 3 times!) Still came to £95!! When I first went in, there was no price flops but after an hour of shopping they were there. By this time though, I was getting so peeved off with myself that I couldn't be bothered to go back and get the stuff I had planned with it.
Tea bags, jam, cars ready bed and tesco icecream cones all full price and no 4p anythings
Going off to bed and will hopefully wake up in a better mood.

Red feathers keep pigeons away - whether it works for magpies as well...
Just come back from supermarket to an awful smell in the conservatory of 'odour tomcat'. Turns out poor Riley has wet his bed! Poor cat is terrified of these magpies and they are ganging up on him. Just tried to persuade him out while I got everything cleaned up and he's having none of it. Had to chuck his bed and big cushions. Given him a dish of tuna and he's gone to back bedroom. Just hope he doesnt do another 'odour tomcat' up there. He's always used his litter tray so he must be really stressed.
Poor little boy hope the magpies leave him alone soon0 -

Thank you for putting the quiz on every day, I really enjoyed the challenge even if I didn't get on for the past few days due to other things happening. It became part of my morning, DS knew to be quiet when I was doing it, probably the only time all day that he was :rotfl:
I hope your ok xxx
Have had an awful day, mum had to get a new washing machine as she tried to fix the old one herself but ended up making it worse :eek: Well that ended up being my fault because my machine wasn't plumbed in yet so she couldn't wait for that to happen, she totally went off on one this morning at me and the guys from Know how/Currys so I just decided I'd go to get stuff done in my own house but felt so fed up with everything I cried from the second I left DS off at school until I reached the house. Arranging for furniture to be delivered next week
Her new washing machine was delivered this morning at 8am but they said they couldn't plumb it in for a few reasons, the first of which is that there has been water leaking around the socket :eek: and they didn't want to get hurt or hurt anyone else. The other reason was that when she had got the kitchen changed around a number of years ago whoever plumbed in the washing machine didn't put the wee valves to turn the water off onto the ends of the pipes so would have resulted in flooding the kitchen :mad: I wouldn't have touched it either.
On a brighter note she did find a plumber who came to have a quick look and will do it all tomorrow :T
I also had an eventful day, builder came and spent 10 mins fixing the hole in the sitting room floor. I managed to plumb in my washing machine in and set it off on the initial wash but when it came to it emptying it flooded the kitchen and I ran in when I heard the water hitting the floor. Turns out that the watse pipe wasn't fixed well, really only pushed together a little, and it had came apart but got that fixed easily and no other problems for the rest of the wash
Got the flooring and underlay for sitting room along with curtains for there too (there are already blinds on those windows but like to have curtains too), a rail for DSes window, paint for his room, paint for most of the other walls in the house along with a blue one for either the bathroom or the kitchen no sure which yet
all but the flooring and paint for the other walls was reduced then I used my dad's diamond card to get anther 10% off. In total including the clearance discounts I saved just under £100 :T and best of all the rail and curtain had been full price the day before when I went to scout out what I wanted to get.
Sorry for long post, hope all who are feeling ill/under the weather or just not feeling right feel a bit better.
Good night allSPC #329 £471/£500 banked
