    :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



    :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:


    Fudgie Have you tried anything like this.
    Not cheap, but it has good reviews and if it helps it might be worth it?

    so I was browsing ebay and saw some lovely pics for my sons flat...a tad too many but what the heck....starting bid was 99 so I put in a cheeky £3 bid and forgot about it

    I won!! and went to collect today..took three trips and turned out to be even more than the 500 advertised..31 boxes of 24 !!

    Well just had the most amazing phone call from OH, he had received a letter in the post containing a cheque for an extreme amount of money which is to cover my FIL's funeral costs, and it only leaves us with a bill of £42 to pay. I had written to the BT and explained situation to them about FIL's death - he worked for BT for approx 30 years - and they decided to pay for most of the funeral costs. You wouldn't believe what a burden that has taken off our shoulders. I am absolutely over the moon and am just about to write a thank you letter off to them now. All we had to pay for was the announcement in the newspaper and they covered everything else.:T:T:T

    So if anyone from the BT benevolent fund is reading this i would just like to say, you guys are amazing and i can't thank you enough. :j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j

    And to Fudge 2 also a big Thank You to you too, i think i had better go and buy a lottery ticket as it looks like this could be my lucky day:):)

    That's great news Bensonsmum :T

    Sneaking in to say hello :o I've been lurking on these forums for a while but had to resort to registering to ask some tax credit questions. I hope you don't mind me saying hello and apologise for not posting any bargains but hopefully I'll be able to make up for that.

    I love reading about everyone on here but it's so hard to keep up. I feel like I know people personally but especially 3dogs and her husband as they always in my thoughts & prayers. You are such a brave couple and are an inspiration.



    You know, I saw your post and it really got my back up. I've contacted them via facebook to ask why there are none of these magazines over here. I'm not expecting to be told the truth but you never know.

    For those over here, I live in the land of spuds!

    Welcome :hello:
    Handle every stressful situation like a dog.
    If you can't eat it or play with it ....... just pee on it and walk away.
