It's not a straightforward click a button, you need to verify your vote from the email they send after you vote. Only takes a minute though
I know there's a lot of posts looking for votes at the moment but this one is extra special

where do you buy protein shake? Both my boys are on it as they try to muscle up (both very skinny at the moment). I find it very expensive and spend ages searching out deals.
Always have a look at Sainsbees, they tend to have them on clearance a lot at my local, normally about 75% off. Holland and Barrett also do some good deals, they do inflate their prices when they have promotions on, but they can be cheaper than paying the full price.
I can't do protein shakes, they give me the !!!!!$. Get them to eat more chicken/tuna/things with a lot of protein in them if the protein shakes are too expensive.
Are your kids working out whilst taking the shakes? If not, they may end up with man breasties!:(:(

Sorry if I missed part of the conversation but saw the chat about the Stabilo pens. When I were a nipper I had these grips that I used on pens & pencils. I was developing a nasty bump on the top of my middle finger from holding writing implements wrong but using these worked wonders.

Might be an alternative to expensive pens & pencils.0 -

How are you anyway Scamps. Are you on the mend now?
I've checked all my email addys, and I now have 4 saying the same as the first, but then I didn't get the blank order form so I think that's the 'technical' issues they're talking about. Just go to your orders to see what they say.
As for my health! Seeing surgeon tomorrow as regards to foot, still can't bend my toes. And seeing plastic surgeon on friday for my head. still looks very angry.0 -

Voted, and can I just add your stories about DS2 and Savvy's insights into forms of aspergers/autism are really really helpful. I come into contact with someone in the spectrum, and I now understand so much better how he interacts with other people. Thank you so much and hope your OH get on well with his new venture.:T
Also voted for QOC!:T
Good luck to all!:T0
