    I got delayed at a Mr T till today by an SA who was scared to put through so many multiples of different MOCs on one transaction but gave them a try anyway.

    He called down a manager when the Rustlers came up with "enter amount" rather than just automatically deduct an amount. :doh:

    The manager said to the SA "so just enter the amount then" (all that was missing was "dumbass") and then to me "sorry about that" :rotfl:


    :D wicked !!!.......love it :T

    :(broke my back doing glitching :eek:

    Ive been out :D yes out.....to a proper swanky wine bar :)

    Ive had the mother of all pig days from hell:o I had a proper meltdown from DS2 earlier. It's because his room is getting done up and he's out of sorts, bless him :A BUT no-one else gave a flying fox and just left me to get on with it. I got him in bed and asleep by 9 with a double dose of sleepy medication.

    Then I had a proper rebel moment and thought.....Sod the lot of yous:D I texted a pal who also has a child with ASD, told her to get a fancy frock on and we went out :D we didn't get long.....but we vented alot of steam and had a very unMSE time drinking Bellinis. :D:rotfl::rotfl:

    I feel better :)

    How terrible about the parking argument. I remember going doing a shop at Xmas when heavily pregnant and with a 14 month old and opening my door quickly in the parent and child section. I almost hit a man with it so I immediately started apologising profusely..... until I realised he had no child!!!:mad::mad

    He had only parked there to protect his fancy Jaguar! I shouted to him as he walked away "I'm not sorry!!!" My OH was mortified, pregnancy hormones haha.

    EmmaP I went to Gdansk Poland a few years ago, it was fan. Very cheap for food, drinks, attractions. I got £1 flights for a few of the girls and we went for 4 nights. Accommodation was £80 for 5 people in total. Went in February though...very cold! :eek:

    Are those the ads that show people drinking on the beach and then swimming in the sea? I was surprised they didn't get complaints/pulled by the H&S brigade
