    Good Morning lovelies :hello:

    Woke up to a telling off by my Omniscient Father :mad::mad::mad::mad:

    The freezer hasn't frozen since I defrosted it last night so obviously, as usual it's my fault :mad::mad::mad::mad:

    It's on super freeze now or whatever it's called so I really hope it's ok :(

    I had this conversation with a friend at the weekend, its her anniversary tomorrow;)Mr Lala is not too bad at remembering things but I drop massive hints about a month before, like leaving printouts on my lappies of things I like and blatantly telling him its our anniversary;)That way he never forgets and I get what I want:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:I only started doing it after he spent £400 on a pair of earrings for me one year that I hated:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:and had to pretend I liked:o

    Why pretend? If I don't like something I am pretty vocal :D surprising eh? :p

    Morning all you lovely people:j:j:j

    Really sorry but so far behind, i haven't had a chance to catch up properly since Thursday really, im now back at home for the week and i have lists a mile long of things i need to do and get done whilst im home:(:(

    My iphone!!! well i contacted my insurance company and they said yes they will replace it with a new one or will repair mine for a £100 excess charge, which i knew it would be but then they said i had to send it away to them and it would go on test for "2 weeks" and if they could fix it they would but the earliest i would have myself a phone back would be in 3-4 weeks:eek::eek: and also my insurance premiums would be going up!!! so i contacted Apple and they said to take it in store and i got a new phone there and then alright i had to pay £139 but i would have had to pay £100 excess anyway and doing it this way i get a new phone in my hands there and then and my insurance premiums won't be going up, so i was extremely happy - im really sorry but someone on here did say that it may be possible which is why i contacted them, so a big THANK YOU im really sorry can't remember who you are:(

    Can anyone tell me what has happened with the price checks dated 04/06 - the ones that all came back as N/A as i have input them again once on friday night and still N/A so i was curious as to whether anybody had contacted T's and what the outcome had been - i did contact T's on FB the same as most others did but have not heard a bean from them.

    Does anyone on here know anything about tumble dryers? mine stopped working on friday evening i checked it out and my DD had so much stuff in there it was untrue:eek::eek:, so i pulled it out and checked the fuse in the plug which had blown so got another one yesterday and replaced it and it worked fine - i think they must have had it on for a few hours as it stopped again, i checked the fuses again and this time it ok nothing blown, and not a lot of stuff in it - but its not working, does anyone have any idea of what i look at next please? the timer itself is working as i can hear it ticking away ( i believe because its mechanical rather than electrical) but nothing else happening - any help would be greatfully received TIA xx

    Checked out another 4 stores yesterday for the "real food" mag but nothing around:(:( is it a fairly new mag or has it been around a while? i know its the one with the cupcake on the front, i was just wandering if its worth going back over old ground if its a new edition?

    So good to be back with you all, its going to take me forever to catch up i have been reading a few pages every now and then when i get a chance to get on the computer, but its hard work getting it away from OH and DD.

    Okay so far today I have asked him what the date is 3 times :mad:

    I have booked the week off work and told him cos I want to spend some time with him ;)

    He was just sorting through our CD collection and come across our wedding songs cd, so have just put that on the computer to play :D If he still does not get it after that I give up and he can look out :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    In all honesty he is a good man, and It wont bother me if he forgets. Im not materialistic and just glad we have a good marriage :)

    I have booked our fav restaurant ready :)

    Howdy all

    For those of you who remember my pistachio problem a fortnight ago I'm beginning to think it wasn't anything to do with them but a hernia :eek:

    Managed to get an appointment with the doc this afternoon and will let you know what he/she says.
    I don't suppose laying a patio today is helping but at least I'll be in pain when I see them as usually it disappears whenever I go.

    Might try a couple of b&j's later to cheer me up :D

    Carry on and thanks for listening.
    :D
