    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    Afternoon Elite a lovely sunny day here in Suffolk :j

    Thoughts and hugs to FloFlo and family, so sorry about your loss

    Hugs going free here for those who need and want them :A
    I've had an easy day today as my poorly knee has swollen up yet again plus swollen right ankle :mad: Got leg propped up on sofa :)
    So, here I sit at Royal Ascot just seen that poor horse broke it's leg :( no winners for me but maybe tomorrow :)

    I managed to grab a couple of the Free Range Kievs yesterday in my local but sausages oos, so it's kievs tonight for us :) will let you know what I think of them later

    Happychappy, I see you had a response to your request for DVDs, I did ask son but he hasn't got them anymore, it seems he got rid of them only a month ago before he moved :mad:

    Better drag myself off this sofa and go get a drink n make myself look busy even if I'm not :o:o

    I must watch the 4.25 I've got a horse in that one :beer:
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    On a cheerier note - I'm glad about the MAM chicken and turkey - need to start eating properly again (I don't bother to cook meat for myself) so these will do nicely.......assuming I can find some Tesco mags - thanks to lovingtescoforever for posting! x
    "Buy me, Lady", said the frock, "and I will make you into a BEAUTIFUL & WHOLE & COMPLETE human being".
    "Do not be silly", said the Man, "for a frock alone cannot do that".
    "True", said the Lady, "I will have the shoes and the bag as well".

    Which phone do I go for

    Samsung Galaxy Note , 100 mins , unlim texts , 500mb data .
    £21.50 a month.
    Can remove the data straight away to make it £15.50 a month. Will use my sim and give this sim to the wife.

    Samsung Galaxy S3, 300 mins, unlim texts , 750mb data.
    £26 a month + £50 for phone.

    Both with free insurance.

    I have unlimited data on my current sim and don't need many minutes as my phonecalls last around 10 seconds :D

    The Note is edging it at the mo.

    Just had a text from o2 that my phone I sent for repair is no longer under warranty and will be charged for repairs!:eek:

    Going to start looking for a new one too, so any tips please post my way too! Looking for an android based phone.

    I would suggest comparing the phones specs the Galaxy Note's contract seems a lot better so see if there's anything that you like on the S3.

    :hello:Good afternoon lovelies
    Big post coming up but a quick quote first ;):o

    Feet are killing, so once again soaking in salt water as I speak. Does anyone else suffer with extremely poor circulation? :( My feet and hands are permanently freezing even if I'm boiling and though it's June, they're covered in chillblains which are unbelievably painful let alone unsightly :( I try my hardest to keep them warm and I've tried medication but due to them lowering my already low blood pressure and me almost fainting several times, I had to cease taking them. I managed 3 months on them and had no change to my circulation so it wasn't worth the side effects.

    I know it's relatively insignificant in the grand scheme of ailments and disease, both my own and others but I wondered if anyone had any tips please? Anything would be greatly appreciated, thank you :A

    Fudge_cake it's not funny what happened to you with your whoopsies last night but it really made me giggle. My T's takes all the reductions out the back and them brings them out to two different places so I know exactly what you mean. Some nights I have to have eyes in the back of my head!:rotfl:

    :p:p:p:p:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I beg to differ, it's hilarious! ;):rotfl: Well everything except my bad back which is actually fine today so no damage done me thinks :T Enough for me to do it all again tonight???!!!! :rotfl:

    This time, your shop would have been £ 3.48 cheaper at Asda so we'll give you a voucher for the difference back!*

    :T:T:T:T

    afternoon all, i seen last couple of days that a few of you are having probs with the loreal mocs not printing, my advice would be hold on for a couple of days as the vouchers usually change over in the middle of the month rather than the beginning and if they are not sending to the printer (no errors just no printing) or the site is glitchy this is usually their fault and could be that they are getting close to changing the mocs as this has happened the last couple of months for some peeps. so hang in there guys good things come to those who well you know lol...

    also anyone got any little ones parties coming up mtr T are selling of loads of diff plates/cups/napkins/table cloths for 36-37p a pack my local had dumbo, disney,toystory,pirates,camo,spongebob and more and also had packs of cake candles for 20p really nice bright ones and loads of the little party bag fillers down to 30-50p a pack so great to stock up and hide for when you need them.
