    Xmas Saver!
    If anyone had bought any CD's from amazon it is worth logging into your account and checking on the music section in Cloud Storage as with loads of CD's you now get the MP3's free and are backdating it for your past purchases. Very handy, though cringeworthy if you have some bad music purchases (esp for kids) in there!

    Xmas Saver!
    In my T's last night in the clearance aisle (in seasonal section) they had Make Your Own xmas kits -advent calendars, baubles, craft kits, fairy tree toppers etc at silly prices. The advent calendars where 50p each and the craft kits 41p. Stocked up to amuse the kids over the xmas period.

    Hello :wave:

    Had an early start this morning as DH decided I needed to wake up at the same time as him, despite the fact the little ones were still asleep :mad: Less of a mad rush but had to consume entire pot of tea to get going :cool:

    Home Start lady poorly so turns out it was handy i'd got up early and had jobs done already (not that I'll tell DH that ;))

    So DS1 and I have had a lovely morning planting and tidying in the garden whilst the baby was asleep 7_2_201v.gif

    No chance to get to Ts, but seems the Tic Tacs have been fixed anyway. That was all my local had so no loss after all.

    Not finding that the radiotherapy is causing me to miss out on things as much as I thought it would. Have normal morning routine, leaving home at about 3pm when boys having afternoon nap, avoiding chaos of tea and bath time ;) and then getting home just in time for a cuddle before they go to bed :D
    I'm managing driving myself there and back okay which means we can try and preserve some of DHs annual leave for a proper holiday :D

    Nice to hear you still sounding so positive logie, and great that the radio is not causing you real problems :D

    It was a bit different 30 years ago when my mum was having treatment, she ended up with a dark tan and real problems!
