3dogs and Mr3dogs lovely to see your post, wondered where yo were last night.
It's probably too much heat knocking Alan out, so he will have to take it easy after he has been to his dads I think.
You sound as though you've both been enjoying your time at home and it's great to hear about mam. It's a shame that she's not recognising you and Anne but I guess it can't only be expected, and I don't mean that to sound nasty or anything but I'm sure you know that.
Weather should be turning cooler by Thursday, where will you be then?
Take care of yourself Susan as you need to be the well and strong one xx

Thanks pet - Thursday? probably home by then ..... probably

Just be a little careful hammering a single deal too hard as Tesco have been known to remove peoples points. 12,000 points is a lot these days.

I'm done 10 of the kits so far and will continue to do a few more but only doling a couple every other day or something and wary of spending too much on them so been using kleenex vouchers and JTD's to keep the cost down as I/m still not convinced at full price thats the spend to points ratio is that good.

Had to skip a few pages to here. What's giving the bonus points?

mr and mrs 3dogs my nana wrote a wee saying when she was 42 and lost her husband (my papa) she was widowed with 10 children and my dad being the youngest. the wee saying went like this
"what ever the weather
some day, some where, it all seems fair
as long as we're together"

she was the kindest most loving giving caring and gentle woman i will ever have the pleasure of meeting, and she showed me how to be a mother, how to love, unconditionaly, i will miss her forever, she died 5 years ago aged 100. she loved her family, and i can't help but feel that there is something in you that reminds me of my nana. that is the biggest compliment i could ever give you. give Mr 3dogs hugs, and enjoy being together whatever the weather xxxxxxx
wipes tears.....and sniffs xxxxxxxxxxxxx:A

3Dogs wipes tears and sniffs too I am humbled and so uplifted by this BlondyNurse - thank you for sharing this :A :A Thank you for your kind words too :A :A

It reminded me of a little ditty I used to sing:

I love you in the morning, I love you in the night
I love you when the stars are shining bright
and when we're both together and so in love
EVERYTHING will be all right

Oh thats far too complicated for me I'm afraid. I'll continue to get them added a couple a day and do some fajitas. If they take my points they take my points. Someone posted the other day to say they got 10k points last quarter and almost excusively from wombles!

You should be fine. A couple a day is nothing compared to the cases I dealt with... :rotfl:

Even the most shameless posters here are quite tame!

The worst case involved a family business contracted to do renovation work to a number of stores in an area. They were able to use the work as cover to womble undetected, and created accounts under false names to avoid any one balance getting suspiciously large. 10k points was a slow WEEK for them :eek:

some people do appreciate when you try to help others dont I saw a lady (when we had the spend £10 on baby vouchers get £1 off ) she was at the huggies go swimming pants and I noticed she already had nappies in her buggy so I offered on of the vouchers and a £2 off huggies swimmers that i had to spare and she said "I am not so sad that i have to use money off coupons" so I just said trying to help and walked away but it wont stop me trying to help someone else when i needed some help the mse forum was there to help me and for that i will be eternally grateful :T

This has happened several times to me, I see people picking up and looking at stuff so I lean over and tell them the price and they just give me the strangest of looks. I don't look too bad, well, I don't think I do.
I have given 2 people coupons a few weeks ago and they looked alarmed, until they saw I had the item in my trolley, well 6 of then anyway.

I used to do very well from points to be fair and my only regret is not getting a car from motorpoint as I had the ability to have got one if I hadnt been so cautious. I used to get the H&B leaflets by the hundred when nobody else could find them.

Darn me and my cautious nature

Never mind, goldsmiths did ok out of me!

Went to visit a friend today who just happened to be holidaying fairly close to me on a riverboat. the sunset was nice. Couldn't decide which pic I liked the best so thought I'd bore you lot with both of them...........apologies!

I think I prefer the first one. I love the symmetry in the cloud reflections of the second one, but the first one has just enough detail to the left of the pic to make your eyes explore the pic a bit more after the initial lovely sunset reaction..............or have I had too much red wine and am now talking piffle???? lmao
