    Morning
    Sunny and bright in Manchester

    :rotfl: On my way home from the beach meet I stopped at the services and DS asked for some chocolate to which I said No he'd had enough. He then said, "Well I hope you stand on lego with barefeet," and stomped off:D:rotfl:

    Hugs to all who need them
    Hope everyone has a fantastic day x

    That didnt half make me laugh :rotfl: I hope you don't stand on Lego :D

    For the 5:2ers.... A mini milk ice cream is 30 cals (same as a flump but a bit more refreshing in this heat :cool:)
    I bought a box for £2 for 12 (I think from A).
    Tiger :cool:

    Hi Elsie. Not posted for ages, but as no one has replied, will unlurk to answer!
    I've got the Galaxy Y on a £10 a month contract with Tesco Mobile.
    To be honest, I'm not overly keen, but I'm not particularly techy when it comes to stuff like this so am probably not the best person to ask ;)
    I find it's a bit faffy and the signal not very good.
    I had to get a new sim as I wasn't getting any signal indoors even though others in the house were. I was told this might just be down to a design issue with the phone though and that the built in ariel or whatever it is, isn't very powerful. Although it improved slightly with the new sim, I still get the no network message a lot.

    My hubby and son have the next model up (galaxy ace?) on the same deal and theirs is much better.

    HTH xx

    Thanks for coming out of lurkdom purdita... seems a few folk would like you to stay that way, :D

    Well I went for the galaxy Y anyway last night, as buying it on line means it will take a couple of days and I don't want to keep missing out on all these extra so many of you are getting. :D I went through quidco, but it's not showing up yet, :( Lets hope it does later as i'm hoping for up to £6 back. I have it on the O2 network, so i'll have to see how that goes, but my network connection will only be for my calls and texts anyway (for which I pay £5 a month for friends and family calls on O2 which works for me,) apart from that it'll be via freebie wi-fis if I can connect, or home and family modems, which will probably be my main way of doing anything.

    Anyway, thanks for your answer, please hang around. I'll either let you know how it's going with the new phone next week, or be groveling for help because my DS (lovely teenager) is fed up with me asking him. :rotfl:

    Hope everyone has a lovely day. :beer:

    I did a great SvA shop last night.
    2 x carling cider 8 pack £18 (50% cb with mySL)
    1 x carling zest 4 pack £3 (50% cb with mySL)
    1 x birds eye rice Mediterranean veg £1.75 (50% cb with mySL)
    Youngs chip shop fish in bubbly batter £3.99 (£1.99 BM + 50% cb with mySL)
    1 x baby formula £7.99

    Total spend = £34.73. Used £4.50 moc, £1.87 wombled BM and double points voucher. £28.36 to pay. £1.99 BM back and cb of £13.25

    Should have also got an extra 75p BM on the birds eye rice but it never picked up as it compared SvT instead (I'm going to call S careline and get my 75p).

    Woohoo. Just got one of those posh electric toothbrushes off of Absolute Radio. So many thanks to the OP. I thought I was supposed to send them an old toothbrush and they would send me a posh new one in return? I never sent them anything so I got this one totes free. WOW!

    Going to make my smile super bright so it will go hand in hand with my Summer body (if it ever happens. Managed to find 12 packs of Golden Wonder crisps in my bedroom last night (wonder who put them there) and come this morning, someone had cleaned all 12 packs out leaving the empty wrappers on the floor). How very dare they! I feel sick now. Time for the gym me thinks.

    Keep smiling :D

    Nice one. :j I hope I get one soon. I did send my old one off as the battery was only lasting about 2 days at the most. I really need it now as last night the back broke off one of my teeth and i've got to wait till tuesday early am for my dentist. It's not too bad at the moment but I am defo starting to feel it already.... A similar thing happened to another tooth a few months back and I had to wait 4 days, but by the time I went I was at the point of barely being able to swallow. :eek: I hope that doesn't happen again. Due to illness I used to be sick almost daily as a child, and I know that has affected my teeth, so if your out there Absolute Radio, please get my brush in the post ASAP! ;)
