    Afternoon folks, not been on for a while and theres no chance of reading back, but just wanted to mention the Tesco finest Wiltshire ham joints are half price £4.99 a kilo at the moment, I picked up a couple which were £9.99 a kilo, £34.79 foc today, I'm sure it will be here somewhere.

    See you later happy hunting :D

    And Fin beef, silverside, toprump, pork, pork loin steaks, all on half price but all full price on packs, chicken drumsticks (ood sel). ;):D Ex large chickens still sel £3.00 kg but £4.50 kg on packs so fairly cheap chickens as well. All were in the correct aisle(s) not on the promo displays.

    Is marrbet mia? Haven't seen her posting lately.

    Arghhhhh, someone has asked me to write them a personal character reference and i cannot find the words!
    I never shut up in person but just cannot seem to find the right words when it comes to putting pen to paper:(
    can any of you guys help me out here please....what sort of things do i write?
    It is for rental for a house that my friend is wanting.
    or could anyone point me in the direction of any templates on tinternet please.
    Many Thanks

    Here you go - obviously only say these things if you think they are an accurate reflection. Chop and change for alternative characteristics as you see fit :)

    To whom it may concern
    I confirm that I have known (name) for (number) years.
    (State relationship - social, business, working together in some other capacity, club, activity, project, etc.)

    At all times I have found (name/him/her) to be dependable, reliable, hard-working, conscientious and honest.

    They are respected amongst their friends and colleagues and I believe they would be a good tenant.

    I'm happy to provide further information if required.
    Yours faithfully, etc.

    There is talk on the student website of nectar or viking (can't remember which one) having a list of people who were sent the original viking code ...

    That sounds like a load of b/s. Are we expected to believe that the user on here who did 4 orders and got the points each time was sent the code 4 times and it said you can claim the 5000 points x 4? Hmmm.

    Also don't menton their kids if they have been locked away for arson or drug dealing.
    Or the dogs that howl and bark all night long (but they're little sweeties really)
    Or their three cats that like to crap in neighbours gardens :rotfl:

    Has anyone tried express stores, as not got a big store near me, and not sure if OH will try for me.

    No ICBINB or yogs in my Express.

    Thank you to everyone whose advice has helped me in my desperate quest to make ends meet. x

    EDIT-Back on the quest, I've been away too long!
