    Been busy booking my parents holiday and got them a great deal but couldn't get site to take their debit card so had to phone up at the end which was annoying.

    I have heard of quotes a lot higher than that Alfie! Guy across the road from us got one for about £250 for a little tree and then did it himself before doing ours too. He has all the safety gear though.
    Well done to all the winners today - I have joined you. Won a £50 Rubbersole voucher and they have emailed the code through already.
    My Timotei came but only 12 bottles so not quite £200 worth! Pleased with the selection but annoyed it said £200 worth have emailed but not expecting a reply. After all the bother with it I am glad to have it.

    Bummer!!! Just typed a long post and internet crashed!!!! Such is my life!!!!! :D

    I was still moaning on about rip off merchants!!! Well done on wins everyone,

    SB - I will be careful, thank you for your concern, its such a wee tree, the rip off merchants wont get me, !!!!!!!s!!!! Sorry everyone for my language, but they make me so mad. Please excuse the language. :o:o:o:o:o Im so sorry but they make me spit the way they think they can get on over someone living on their own and I find it pathetic!!!!

    Thinking about it,I can take the wee tree down easily with the help of my neighbour, spindly wee thing!!!! I dont know why i even asked these people - but you hope you trust people don't you, and it doesnt pan out!!!!

    Did anyone see Martin Clunes doggie programme yesterday? Oh, I loved it and puddy was sat in front of tv watching it all the time. !!! Absolutely wonderful. Such beautiful dogs, so clever and intelligent, god bless them. xxxxxxxxx :A:A:A:A

    Well done on the wins in the Inn today, really happy for you all.

    Sheils, well don on your and well done on getting the Timotei and hope you get a reply.


    Alfie - had to laugh, sorry, but when you said "with a little help from my neighbour, spindly thing" Presume you mean the tree not the neighbour lol. Love your stories you really make me smile.


    Had a love tea tonight. We had salmon, garlic mushrooms, cauli, carrots and rice.


    DD had a cheque from TAB for £100. Nice little win for her.

    Must get on and finish the mags I have been doing. Keep saying I won't store them up but I always seem to.

    Evening all !

    Just had a lovely bottle of rose wine - well half a bottle anyway! We had salmon as well Sylvia but with jacket potato.
    Missed loads of the BW hotel comps while trying to organise my parents and loads of them are too far away but never mind. Must try and use some of the 5,000 point offers on Holiday Inn.
    I got £28 in Tesco vouchers too today. Converted quite a few the other day for Pizza Express and Days Out as they were going out of date.
