    morning all x

    not a good day yesterday with my sister we have to go back to London and she will need a termination. The hydrocephalus has taken over the brain and given the fact of 14 weeks left the little baby would have no quality of life or probably do anything for himself. The case is marked as severe :(

    off to m&s today for food today will try and take my mind off things

    thanks for listening x

    So sorry for you and your sister,massive hugs to you both xx

    Hugs to others dealing with bad news......

    Hi everyone....don't post often can never keep up!

    My Adsa order just been delivered. Ariel showing 5.20 on my receipt, but they haven't delivered it! I only ordered 11 items and I got 4!!!
    If I just ring and tell them to refund I'll still get apg won't I?

    I had a similar thing an hour ago, but mine were NEARLY delivered, rejected as too dear.......several other items but don't know what will happen now with apg, any ideas gang?

    I'm reading a magazine in work (Director, from IoD I'll have you know:p ooooooooh). Anyway, found a funny "jargon buster" quote.
    "too many flamingoes on my lawn"... meaning a report that is padded with superfluous information. Love it :rotfl: Erm, do i sound boring?!:D

    I found some headphones went through ss but cs said i could not have them as system glitch is that correct tia xx

    Afternoon the post above is one of a few I have read and I really do think even the most ardent glitcher has more than likely been told at sometime a !!!! an bull story why they cannot purchase 1p or 4p items:( why o why cant they just be honest with us and not make such feeble excuses.I think it is just a lottery as to how lucky:j you are as there are many factor involved;) rotfl::rotfl:but certainly should not deter as its all about the thrill of it and of course not forgetting the money we save.

    Thanks. They didn't actually deliver it. I had 11 diff items on order but only 4 were delivered. I will post results later with what actually happens, I know before I've had apg when had subs but not sure about this situation.

    oh right. well i don't know so would love to see your results later :) Hope it works for you

    he he. i did that earlier. Tried some tiny boxes of "divine" xmas chocs, various coloured boxes in milk, dark, white etc. £2 for a piddly 60g box. You are joking!:eek: Straight back on the shelf they went.

  • I'm in the process of negotiating the 'loan' of some freezer space with friends, for my overflow of M&S & related bargains shopping.

    One couple really like the Warburtons Thins (I gave them several packets over the weekend), so I'm suggesting a rental price of one packet of Thins per 10cm3 space per week … the lawyers are just drawing up the final contracts for signature.

    Another friend has the M&S and GR vouchers ready to use, but she's a bit of a nervous nellie. We've even tried a role-play workshop, she playing herself (shopper) and me playing the SS till (easy gig, RADA-trained don't you know) beeping in the all the right places, to make sure she does it right. Still not sure. So I've suggested I do the M&S shop for her. I've given her a list of all the options, so she can either mark up the list (like a takeway menu) or come in the shop and point things out, then scarper outside. In return, all I'm asking for is a loan of some freezer space … perfectly reasonable, I thought.:)
