    Mrs S forgot to mention that you also need body armour to protect you from trolley and elbow bashings and that it makes a rugby scrum look like a dollies tea party. It's every car booter/ebayer for themselves :eek:.......you have been warned :p

    .......or maybe that's just where I live :D :rotfl:

    But my most favourite part of it all is and reading people's experiences of it on other threads on these forums. It's an absolute guarantee some person who only got 2 trolleys worth will be moaning about all the 'greedy pigs' who buy things to sell on. The 2 trolley person is not a 'greedy pig' because they have a large family to give gifts to.....It's very entertaining :)

    My local is very civilised. It gets busy but there never any drama. I do love to hear about everyone's else's craziness though.
    I can't bloody wait :j
    Happy birthday M2M :bdaycake:

    Had one of my birthdays today, according to the Body Shop that is :D Nice little bodyscrub for free thank you. Might pick up a butter when I go to another town, I like having more than one birthday :D

    Lol, I had a birthday last week, one in November and one in August. :D

    TWELVE SURPRISING USES FOR VICKS VAPOR RUB.


    Here's Number Thirteen...

    My Dad used to work with someone who had Vicks sandwiches:eek:. Yes, sandwiches:eek::eek: Two slices of bread spread with Vicks.
    The first time (they were out on a job, and eating lunch in the van) my Dad wondered what the really strong and distinctive smell was ... he couldn't believe it when he found out.:)

    For a few weeks we've been mulling over getting rid of Sky and moving to BT. Ie losing Sky TV and using BT for calls and broadband.

    Broadband is £16 pm but free for 6 months
    line rental is either £15.99 pm or £141 for 12 months in advance

    Free Sainsburys gift card for £40

    BT TV will be £5 per month

    We aren't watching much on Sky. DH will pay separately for £3.99 for Eurosport cycling on his laptop.

    Set aside tonight to sort it all out



    Our monthly payments will drop from £55 to £25

    Just decided to check out TCB

    :T:T:T:T:T:T

    They are offering £147 for new customers.:T:T:T:T

    We've been doing the same TM. Had a talk with Talk Talk before Christmas and got offered what I thought was a good deal but there was a lot of negative stuff about them so never actually did it. But Sky discount has ended and theres no way we watch enough telly to justify the cost of Sky.

    Will miss the choice though :(

    Have also considered the You View box thingy but don't know anybody with one.
