    Evening everyone,

    Just popping in for a spot of catching up.

    Things not looking too good for my mum, now has UTI and chest infection. Not sure if she will be strong enough to fight both of these at the same time. Antibiotics started. They are stopping one of the new meds, can't remember the name but was to help her sleep at night but she is so sleepy now anyway, it is maybe one med too many. Think reality is she may not come out of the hospice although it is still early days for the methadone.

    Thanks for everyones kind thoughts. :)

    Sending my thoughts and prayers to all those that need them too, not completely caught up but especially to Floflo for her MIL and Nikki for Alfie. :A


    Tinyshoes I feel for you girl-I have been through this and it is a traumatic time. The key thing is to keep her as comfortable as possible no matter what it takes. Thinking of you and your mum. XX

    :D Coupons = the only money we can legally print for ourselves:D

    :j A coupon for a free item that is price glitched in Mr T's to be cheaper than Sada for an apg = HEAVEN :j

    :money: total = £47.48 cc = 413 selling stuff = £23.00 Floor pennies = £5.79
  • Me again :D. Amazon have Marie Meili Bras very cheap. From about £18-20 down to as low as £3.50 ish with free supersaver delivery. Not sure we're allowed to post amazon links but if you just search Marie Meili they should pop up - no pun intended :rotfl:. Thanks to student fb page

    BTW I've got the student fb page notifications coming set to come through to my phone, very useful :)

    Any fans of Peter Kays 'Pheonix Nights' or 'That Peter Kay Thing' on here?

    we had fire safety training after work today and when he said in a fire its usually smoke that gets you long before the fire reaches you, I was so temoted to jump up and shout 'Fire kills in minutes, Smoke kills in seconds!' But the head was already giving me daggers due to my giggling.

    Love Phoenix Nights :)
    Was it Keith Laird giving the talk......and were dogs mentioned?;)
    My husband says he will leave me if I don't stop shopping......... God I will miss that man.
