    Morning all.
    Big hugs to rose, as my nan used to say 'its not always dark at 5'. I'm sure that something will be waiting for you around the corner xx.
    Congrats to mrs stinkface on the job woohoo!
    Hugs to those that need them.
    Hope they find the 3 yo boy soon. My DS is the same age.
    I'm thinking of changing my bank account to 1st direct seem to have good reviews.

    RE FIRST DIRECT
    I've been with them since they began eons ago ,when HSBC started telephone banking end of 80's early 90's and then started internet banking via First Direct, I just carried on moving with them as they changed technologies so years and years I've been with them. Superb service all round, any difficulties there's a phone number which I've never had an issues with. Never wanted to leave because they are so good and the internet side is so easy to do etc etc. I've never been tempted to leave, I can access accounts online, by phone and can pop into any HSBS branch to pay stuff in either via the machines or at the counter or indeed if I need to speak to anyone at a HSBC branch about the accounts. Truly excellent for me in everyway and have been for many many years so can whole heartedly recommend without reservation.

    Looks like Ts Direct are still packing every item separately. Ive just had 2 different 'your order is ready to collect' emails for the 2 throws I ordered the other day. At least I might be able to avoid confusion if Im expecting more than one package this time!

    I have had a dispatch email for my two today. Thanks OP. :T

    Not sure how it works but when I originally added the red ones to my basket they said insufficient stock (only ordering 2) and got message would save in my basket for later.

    I had kept looking to see if back in stock but they weren't but just happened to notice when I went to my basket it said I could add them. So I did. :D

    I couldn't access link for them directly on the site only through my basket. So it's worth checking back anyone who tried. I only ordered mine late last night. :)

    Walked into a tiny little Boots store today. Lo and behold, the shelves were still brimming with 2 different soap and glory gift sets, hordes of different Sanctuary sets, a few Kate Moss sets and quite a lot of Champneys sets. Surprised no one cleared that store too. I had a look but as I don't actually need anything so decided not to buy.

    I was walking around smelling of Kate Moss yesterday, I tried it out but didn't buy. It did sort of grow on me as I was driving home as I kept sniffing it and I wish I had indulged myself. :o
