    I've been on here for hours, reading posts and working out a jdt shop for tomorrow. Got a laptop on defrag which is taking hours, and a netbook on a full security scan, which has taken slightly less hours, both a bit old and a bit slow.

    WARNING -RANT :mad::mad::mad:
    The desktop has gone wonky on Firefox. MSE forums doesn't show the header bar anymore, just a huge great long list of every link that is usually in the header bar, and I have to scroll a long way to get to the posts. It's also doing it on Mysupermarket, so it must be the computer I think. I've tried everything to fix it, and can't. Really peed off!!!:mad::mad::mad:, and DS1 isn't here to ask for help, cos he's gallivanting round France on his motorbike with his boss and workmates. DON'T EVEN WANT TO THINK ABOUT THAT!!!!:eek::eek::eek:
    RANT OVER, SORRY ABOUT THAT :o:o
    I've found a few bits not listed that may jtd tomorrow, so if they work, I'll post them for you all.
    My black cat has just tried to walk over the keyboard, climbing up for a cuddle, she's such a sweetie. I must find a photo of her to post. Yes, I know, waffling on again :rotfl:. I'd better go now.
    Night night all, sweet dreams. Luv'n'hugs to all in need of them

    Just about to catch up but today i bought:
    6 welchs
    4 of the Chicargo pizzas (1of each of the flavours that compare)
    4 Ben & Jerrys (No Karamel Sutra :( )
    4 twin pack garlic bread

    Subtotal= £46.54
    -Meal Deal Saving -£18.80
    -£6 Welchs juice (last of my vouchers)

    Total to pay
    £21.74

    JTD - £19.92 hopefully

    TOTAL SPEND
    £1.82 :T:T:T:T:T

    I think the JTD will be £17.92, it's a saving of £4.48 for each one so £4.48 x 4 = £17.92 so spend of £3.82, but not flipping bad for a freezer full of yummy grub! Those Chicago Town pizzas are HUGE enough for 2 people,well almost!

    Do you think T's are trying to make us all fat? All the deals at the moment are for pizza and ice cream!

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    :) Learn from the past, enjoy and appreciate the present and work to make your future the best it can possibly be :)

    And get lots of glitches!

    Got some of the Chicagotown pizzas and put 2 in the oven, took them off the package tray only to check after 5 minutes and they had melted onto the ovens shelves. Checked box for instructions and the trays are oven trays and the pizza should be cooked on the tray. Managed to get OH to peel them off the oven shelves and they are now cooking, they look a bit of a mess but hopefully they will taste ok. They at least smell good.

    Hope this isn't any sort of karma!

    Glad I wasn't the only one :o And a few others did it too. I put it on mesh tray in bottom of the halogen oven - had to cut it away from sides of bowl :o but it was yummy ..... will use the cardboard tray next time ;)

    hi peeps haven't been on for over a week after me and the missus were assaulted by the neighbour have been preoccupied trying to force an eviction so if anyone can point me in the way of a glitch or two would be greatly appreciated have spent the last week basically locked in house but need too do a shop tomorrow

    Oh dear, I feel for you. We had 3 years of hell with neighbours from hell which reached a peak when the police took 10 days to turn up after I made a 999 call saying my neighbour (female :eek:) was at the door threatening to get me next time I left the house. She once battered down 2 fence panels and 2 posts trying to get to me because she was having an argument with Oh about him seeing someone else, and she blamed me for causing their problems :eek: She had 3 or 4 kids by different fathers, was claiming single parent benefits when partner living with her (Environment Health Officer soon put a stop to that when he found out), and we saw youngest toddler eating out of the bins :( We were so disturbed by it all by then that we checked with estate agents and took the first available house to rent. Spent 6 months paying rent and mortgage before selling house at a loss because we had to declare the problem with the neighbours. They got evicted shortly afterwards and the people who bought our house sold it again, for twice the price :eek:

    This was just over 10 years ago and we have rented since. Feel more secure that way as you can move at short notice ........ not that we have had the problem since :D

    @ HC you're not the only one not to care about the Jubilee. Haven't watched a minute of it on TV, spent the weekend & today with the kids. Nice to have them an extra couple of days with the Bank Holiday :)

    Greetings to the graveyard shift, I did actually watch quite a bit of the concert between & after Coronation St.

    Alfie Boe :blushing: I quite liked the look of him on the Lottery and "enjoyed" his performance tonight.

    Good lord what on earth was wrong with Cliff's mouth ? It was like he had ill fitting teeth, a lisp or mouth ulcers. :eek:

    I've been [STRIKE]dragged[/STRIKE] taken to see him in concert loads of times & he's always ok singing live & Elton who I've also seen live didn't quite sound right either.

    I never thought I'd say it but of the oldies I thought Tom Jones followed closely by Shirley Bassey sounded the best.

    Shame I missed JLS

    We were sitting watching Sky Sports News and at 7.30pm I said, what about watching the Jubilee Concert, there's lots of older acts on. Mr 3Dogs said ok then so we did watch it and I'm glad we did. Some low moments - Cliff murdering his songs :(, some of the 'comedians' made me cringe; but many more high moments - Tom Jones still has it, Alfie Boe, Annie Lennox but those wings :eek: :eek:, Robbie was very good as I love him doing swing, Madness on the roof, Charles' speech was lovely and the reception from the crowd was tremendous. Fabulous event all round and, yes, made me proud to be British. As Alan said, only we can put on a show like that, with a crowd like that

    Am really glad that Alan stayed up for it all, and only went to bed when it finished, so it has been a good day for him :D:D
