    Just chilling after a couple of busy days and all I can hear is the 2 dogs next door crying. Young woman and her boyfriend live there and the dogs are shut in a cage in the kitchen all day and they usually only cry when one of them comes home. They are 2 young staffordshire bull terriers.
    She is a nice girl who previously lived in the house with her Mum and brother and sister, Mum moved out a year ago and house was empty till a few weeks ago when this daughter moved back. She had bought a flat with boyfriend but got fed up living in a 3 rd floor flat in the middle of a not very nice town. We had a flood recently and he came in and opened my drain so it ran away. Thought at the time there was something not quite right about him.
    So last week I was talking to her and out of the blue she told me he is a massive coke head. He is a plumber and earns £1600.00 per week and she said she went away for 2 days recently and he blew £500.00 on drugs. He smokes weed, takes coke, drinks and takes MDMA. He also has a congenital heart condition and she found him collapsed in the road outside recently. My heart went out to her and as a woman who was married to an alcoholic for 30 years I told her it was none of my business but she is only 20 and should get on with her life and get rid of him.
    Now I am wondering if there is something wrong in there for the dogs to be crying this long. Just been out to look and there appears to be some lights on but no cars on the drive.
    Should I do anything??

    Yes, go round on some pretext, just say you were worried whenyou heard the doggies.
    Love your Mum, you'll never get another one when she's gone.

    If you find anywhere better or cheaper I'm keen to know as affordable compatible ink's the biggest hassle when I'm using the kind of cheap printers I always seem to end up buying!:D

    just search ebay for bulk ink for epson sx130 or model of your printer if I got it wrong lol. It'll be 4x100ml bottles of each colour. I've found them great but of course epson will be trying to get around people using them. I think my last printer I got through about 500ml of each colour and prob 800ml of black so thats 100 of each colour cartridge plus the blacks so it can be worthwhile. One warning tho as the ink is quite cheap its not brilliant for photo printing and it can dry up if not used regularly.

    Never had a problem other than having to get a disc to reset the ink pad counter :(
    Used these on my last 3 printers now. The cannon I have at the moment I wasn't so luck with. Paid £30 for the ciss and it stopped working after 2 months:mad:
    I'll be back to epson next year but hey the cannon only cost £9 in t's electrical clearout :rotfl:
    Those are the 2 I just bought continuous ink system and bottles of ink to refill it.
    Dont know if it is any better/cheaper than what you are paying at the moment.

    Is that a trick question ?

    I will use it for cuts or a drop in the bath, very good for spots but I've never had spots even as a teenager

    :eek::eek::eek: did you buy them all the shelf was empty!:naughty::D Unless I'm missing them , they are halfway up the skincare aisle on the top shelf on the left, I couldn't find them anywhere else?

    The rocky road chokablok was lovely I thought but the white one today tasted like cooking chocolate! Will make excellent Xmas presents I feel along with posh shampoo and skincare items!:T:T:T

    I got two packets..still worked out free, just no money off other shopping. They were in the skin care aisle, next to the Kleenex facial wipes. There were around ten or more packs left there this am.
    Also got McVities classic collection biscuits in UB ready for Christmas. They still had loads of the magazines with the Lenor vouchers etc...picked up a few more :)
    Born to glitch :D

    If you are made of steel, you may want to still try the Andrex glitch. It was working at Tesco Hove at 14:36

    Sounds like your local to me then. :wave:

    Thats what I was thinking, is there anyone else with you to go and knock on the door. Don't want to scare you but you don't know if he does answer what state he will be in.

    Be careful
    If it wasn't for blinds it'd be curtains for all of us:dance:
