The wonderful sparkly Elite Christmas thread of love, dreams and glitches ©

I feel quite excited that I have about 8 in TPP - free money today, sadly though I need normal stuff like mince and bananas.
Mind you I could wonder across to Sada as well, my exercise for the day

Morning everyone isn't it glorious

I've just put the new Sainsburys Christmas gravy boat in the right cupboards and found 2 things to go with the collection of stuff I am amassing for this years Christmas shoe boxes :T

Goodmorning:) had a nice lay in today this is the advantage of being retired:TSometimes I feel guilty when I think of everyone rushing around dashing of to work and school runs etc and then I remind myself I worked full time until I was 63 and deserve to take it easy;)

Enjoy your day whatever you are doing .

Thanks for that, prompted me to see if the last talked about bill has gone through yet, but it appears not, gov. website still shows me as retiring at 66, instead of the talked about 67.

No idea how people can keep working full time until that age, so much more tired now in my 50's, than I was in my 40's

Quick update re clubcard use.


I was buying an electrical item about a year ago that needed a charger - anyways on the day that I was buying it they didn't have the charger so she gave me a promise thingy at customer services to pick one up later. When she was giving me this promise thing she asked for my clubcard - she pumped in the number and my name, address and all personal details came up on the screen - recent transactions etc.


It is obvious to most that they can do this but I was shocked nonetheless that personal info can be accessed by a member of staff in the store:eek:
