    My latest attempt to wind up Tosco on Facebook, using AE after being told that they encourage stores to sell at 1p.

    At this very moment this is being sent out to all Tosco staff, along with all your current known aliases:)

    Sis back from holiday and I was expecting a call but nothing. Glad really. I wrote her an email today that I did not send ( made me feel better writing it) and the gist of if was that i want her to leave me in peace and I wont be helping her in the future ( paid or unpaid). She called in at Mums on way back from airport but I had asked Mum to call me when she left so I did not see her. I have to remove my stuff from her Barn and get together the money I owe her for the rent. ( this was for a garage she rented that I stupidly used for a year and not the barn where it is now).
    Have spent evening doing tax return for one of the chefs who works for her occasionally as he had asked me to do it. he is paying me to do it and it has no connection with my sister. I actually feel good about things this evening. My boiler broke on Monday and i had cover with British Gas ( which I did not even know I had till 3 weeks ago). i called them at 9 and they came at 10. He came back today with the parts and fixed it. total cost £99.00 for £550.00 worth of work. House now nice and warm and had a lovely bath.

  • Almost forgot - one of the things I did today was get my hair cut. I'd gone off my usual hairdresser before Christmas when she messed up :(

    Anyway, went to local hair/beauty college and got a lovely young man. He has done a great job - charged me £20 :T:T:T and used top notch hair products. I have booked him again :)

    I asked the lad to take them off for me, but felt a right tight wad. He asked why I didnt want them, and I said because I thought they were only a quid....then he looked up the price, and saw they were only £1.12, lol, I thought they were much more than that! I did get a 1p filing cabinet though :D

    I saw these on CoTs 1p SEL post

    Can you post a pic or advise on rough dimensions? I've checked various but no joy. Would be good to know what I'm looking for

    TIA

    good evening :)

    I've been on a 1p hunt :j:j:j I did a lot of scanning and didn't find much :(
    no chocolate
    no stationery
    no candles

    BUT wait to see what I did find....I'll just go and get a pic. Bear in mind I found the only 1p roll of duct tape in the country :rotfl::rotfl:
