  • Hi Nictrinwyn :hello:

    Really lovely meeting you, I know my little man enjoyed meeting and playing with your little one :) Yes that book is sweet. Sorry to hear about your car trouble :(

    I hope he had a little nap when we left, can't believe we nattered on for over three hours, but well, you do talk a lot :)
    I'm starting to feel better about my car trouble, now I have shared, it will all get sorted...I hope.

    Oh and I meant to say Tinyshoes, get a move on with the 5:2, I'm not doing it on my own you know...I started yesterday and I was really good. I am gonna be a skinny b***h this year, but a nice one (I can live in hope) I'm not very good at sticking to things diets either x

    Oooo my M&S nightie is so lovely and soft :) feels very luxurious compared to my usual Primarni :rotfl:

    My Co-op still don't have their NUS Extra barcode so missed out on 10% again :mad: This time the guy instore says he wasn't sure if it was just until new year. Well, I just checked online and it seems it's on-going boooo :(

    This free greetings card card inside the M&S order, it looks like the first card is already stamped? I'm confused but forgive me, this is my first ever online M&S order :D Can I take the top card instore for a free card? If so Valentine's day will be a bit more sorted! The stores all have Easter stock but I'm worrying about Valentine's Day! My mister would like a coffee machine but not sure if we'll be able to afford one :(

    Sorry if someone has already replied but I'm on the phone and will lose this when I go to the next page.

    Yes, that top bit gives you a free card. I got two in my last order. It's a great bonus as there's no upper price limit but it doesn't work on packs of cards.

    OK...I am getting old but what on earth is a bonnet bra?? :rotfl::rotfl:

    If my OH bought me a pan set for Christmas, he'd have 3 new hats!! :eek::rotfl::rotfl:.......but Im glad you are happy :)

    The Lappy is good :D you sound cheered up already :D

    Have you googled a bonnet bra yet? lol

    I am happy with all the new kitchen stuff, mainly because I wanted new pans and a microwave and I didn't have to buy any of it, he got me the actifry too, so that should help with the healthier eating I hope. I am not bothered if he buys me practical stuff, although he wouldn't get me the fridge/freezer for xmas...lol. Kept saying he couldn't get that as a gift lol. We went halves on that.

    Yes amazing where the time went, as they say it is good to talk :rotfl: Yes little man had a nice long nap thanks as he was so tired. Today he returned back to pre school which he loved and then we are bowling tomorrow so that should be fun :)

    Good for you with starting the 5:2 and everyone else doing it

    You don't have to keep swapping, just put the o2 sim in, download the app, then put your 3 sim back in. The app will still work.

    I'm on Giffgaff, and that's what I did with my iphone.

    You don't even have to do that as long as you can put it in a phone which will receive a text. The app asks for the O2 phone no and a code texted to that number - I think. So you don't even need any credit.

    I think that's what happened when I did it anyway.
