Oh! You raise an excellent point! But there has definitely been bucket-loads of custard of late, which might be the culprit?... explains why they were half price, clearly faulty P*M, hot choc doesn't weigh that much, unless you're erm, drinking it by the bucket-load!
Neither of us can get that daft Everything Is Awesome! song out of our heads. :eek: Every time I think it's gone Mr M bursts into song and that's it for another several hours. :rotfl:Ahh, the Lego Movie ...

Loving your Simple Pleasure today PM!
Sorry to hear about Mr PM's job. I am a big believer that these things do happen for a reason and i believe you will look back on this in a years time and realise what that reason was. Funny enough my DH was in a job he hated for years and he just couldnt get a break, every job he went for he didnt get. It was so disheartening but then all of a sudden he got his dream job. And he was really pleased he hadnt got one of the others he'd gone for, because if he had then he wouldnt have carried on looking and got the dream one. If that makes sense? What is meant for you wont pass by you 
i hope he gets his good luck very soon xx

Sorry about Mr. PMs news Pearla. But I'm sure things will look up soon. I went through this very recently with OH and it was a very tough time - but at the end of it, he ended up with a fab job that he enjoys. So hang in there - the universe is conspiring to help you; it just needs a minute!

I know how Mr P*M feels - I'm currently putting out feelers for a new job (though won't be actually properly searching till April) and it definitely seems like there is not much out there, and what is out there seems to be miles away, or needs XY qualification, or etc.
Wish him all the best though, and like everyone says Something will turn up!M3 Dec2015 #160 Target £150,000 (BU £155000)0 -

Wish it was sunny now, those simple things mean a lot sometimes... xx moneycurious, so sorry to hear that. It just knocks you for six, doesn't it? But as others have mentioned, things *definitely* happen for a reason, I've had so many spooky examples of that all through my life, no doubt something wonderful will arrange itself for your soon. *sending positive vibes you way too!* a penny picker upper.
