  • Well can I Budgie have a moan please?

    Well I am anyway, poor Dad he had his bladder operation booked for next Wednesday and he spent yesterday at the hospital with a nurse explaining how his operation will be done and about the bags he will have etc.

    He then went today for tests and was booked in on Monday for more tests and then the District nurse was booked to give him an enemma etc on Tuesday.

    The hospital have just rang about an hour or so ago to say that his operation is cancelled as they need to have a camera to look at his bowel first.

    He previously had bowel cancer and had some of his bowel removed they now need some for this bladder operation so need to check how much he has?

    Its just so upsetting, with cancer it needs to be done asap as his chemo didn't work and the cancer had grown.

    Poor thing was all set for his op.

    Sorry but I just need a moan. I may moan again, please put me on ignore if you like.

    Budgie xxx

    Yes Yes, I know I'm still pages behind lol.

    Budgie sweetie you moan all you want. I hope all works out ok with your Dad, please keep us posted.

    By the way your lovely posts make me wish for a multiple thanks button, keep them coming x

    OMG! Looks like Mad is making a christmas single :eek:

    I was expecting maybe 30 thanks or so but when I got in from A's ;) over 90!:eek:

    I think I may have bitten off more than I can chew :o

    I know things are tight at the moment that's why I feel 50p per download would be fair. (You aint heard Mad wailing like a cat:D)

    It's not me raising the money it's you!!!
    You would hopefully be the donators, unlike a certain supermarket with their donate £1 voucher that actually sticks a quid on your bill :eek: so they can say oooh look what we have raised :cool:

    Anyhoo, I shall stop right there, you truly are the Elite :A

  • Colgate is on 342 in tosco. The trigger item is
    Colgate Cavity Protection Regular Toothpaste Tube (100ml)
    then you would get your £10 toothbrush for 77p

    I have brought the smiles toothbrush that is a £1 as they don't have the toothpaste in my store and everything has then become £1
    Now on the 5:2 diet.

    Feeling confident after my first shops yesterday - done 3 today and made mistakes on 2 - pooh!

    Despite writing my list re coke - I forgot the odd/even rule so glad was I to find the product (after others re clean shop missing). Tosh.

    Tried the cheese shop for S - no Lake District cheese but used Pilgram's it hasn't worked..... so watch out.

    I knew this but forgot to write do not buy the lemon dishwashing cleaner on final list and I ....brought the lemon one - disaster pay for this and 2 others as no longer have comparable in group of 3. But I have learnt - I just need to remember - must try harder...! :o

    It was tricky finding 750ml bleach as most bottles had extra 33% free so still £1 but now 1 litre - unsure if they would still work if 'free' or change in ml size would mean not compare. Anyone know the answer to this?

    Re choccy and discussion - msm prices went to 2 for £2 yesterday - my shop went through ok yesterday. I haven't done choccy shop today but sounds like still working against previous price - fingers crossed long may this continue...!

    Good afternoon all :D

    As many of you know my darling neice passed away at the end of July from leukaemia.:(

    Last month I won an "experience day" voucher through the redspottedhanky olympic games competition. It finally arrived yesterday:j I said at the time that I would pass the voucher on to those marvellous people at the "Make-a-wish" foundation. Unfortunately it turns out that this prize is "non-transferable".
    Anyhoo, I was looking at the experiences on offer and one caught my eye. A 1hr pop taster where you get your own CD made. Whereupon last night in a drunken state (due to the glithching wine ;)) came up with the following idea;

    Would you donate 50p to hear Mad sing? :o (I would release it under Mad or something similar so I could remain anonymous:eek:). Probably around Christmas time just in case it goes viral :cool:
    All proceeds to go to said charity.
    So I can gauge the potential please click the thanks button if you would. :AOr ignore this post if it's a "jog on Mad" :rotfl:

    92 thanks so far :T:T Mad's making a Christmas single!! :D:T

    I contacted him to ask him to change what he wrote.. I never contacted them.. I guess one of the regs posters contacted them cos they wanted there thread back.. thats how sad some of them are lol :)

    That's a bit of a rash assumption. A lot of people read this thread as we all know.
