Morning luvlies, not caught up from last night so anyone who needs a hug, have a great big hug from me

If you've not got around to reading Martin's newsletter yet, there's something all the driver's should be aware of. "Over two million people carry an expired driving licence photocard. You risk a £1,000 fine if don't renew it – so urgently check yours ..... Check your card's section 4b date". I checked mine and it expires June 13 :eek:. DH said he heard them talking about it on LBC recently, his also expires in June, but he didn't tell me! Need to add this to the calendar of my things to do now. HTH

10 Things To Do in the Supermarket ....While Your Other Half Shops:

Get 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's trolleys when they aren't looking.
Walk up to an employee and tell him/her in an official tone: 'Code 3 in Housewares...' and see what happens.
While handling large knives in the Kitchen Dept, ask the clerk if he knows where the anti-depressants are located.
When an announcement comes over the loudspeaker, hit the floor and assume the foetal position and scream ' NO! .......It's those voices again!!!'
Go to the Service Desk and ask to put a bag of M&M's on credit.
Move a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.
Set-up a tent in the Camping Department and tell other shoppers you are sleeping over and invite them in if they bring pillows from the Bedding Department.
When a clerk asks if they can help you, begin to cry and ask, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?'
Go into a fitting room, shut the door and wait a while.. then yell loudly, 'There's no toilet paper in here.'
Hide in a clothing rack . . . and when people browse through, say, 'PICK ME!!! PICK ME!!!'

:eek: but made me giggle

Half a tennis ball works as a plunger if you don't have one (assuming of course that you have a spare tennis ball)

If you're really stuck, undo a wire coat hanger and feed it down the plug hole and wiggle it around. Sometimes helps to dislodge any build up that's down there

Same here (except my mum's and not yours )

Now that I've recently changed address again I'm tempted to get a photo one. I think it's free when you change address (?)

My only worry is do I tell them my previous address was my mum's or do I give them the address I was living at but forgot to tell them about?

Be careful with this as, I believe, it's law to have the correct address on a licence, if you get pulled over they would query different address on licence to car/insurance, as for renewing don't they send a reminder
