    Actually may be an incorrect feeling, as the 50p Normous Noodles all showing N/A everywhere else on msm. Still wouldn't risk them against Morries though, until known. Now - did I check if there were any Normous Noodles in M? Oh no:o:o:rotfl:.

    Had a quiet day today, did a small shop to use up some coupons and a PP. That's me on several NSDs now! I've decided July is going to be a very frugal month :D Shouldn't be too difficult, plenty of food in the freezer and if we run out, well there's still plenty of beans :rotfl:

    Is yours to decide, this is your life.

    Hello you lot.

    I've had a rather lovely day. I booked a massage/exfoliation thing on impulse last night (using a £10 off wahanda code I remember getting sent) and I went to a spa called Smooth You in Hackney. It was lush. My skin is so soft! Keep looking down at my legs and they're all shiny. Good shiny :)

    Then I treated myself to a brunch across the street. Was just about to tuck into my avocado and poached eggs and got a call about a Channel 4 job. I don't think I'll get it (purely because it's a step up and very different to the kind of programmes I make) but it did make me feel very good indeed.

    Arrived back at the flat and no kittens up trees. Currently got my feet up with a large glass of wine :)

    Could do with a bit of advice on late holidays. Only just got my act together to send off for new passport mine expired years ago so have had to find all my old paperwork including the bloomin passport. :eek:

    Anyhow, DD2 wants to go away with me and DD3 and I didn't realise DD2 goes back to uni 27th August. :( If the passport returns successfully in the 6 weeks it's meant to has anyone ever managed to book any last minute deals for August?

    I haven't done it myself but have a friend who is a travel agent, there are some great deals if you can travel within 2 or 3 days of booking and aren't too specific about where you want to go.
    Planes are taking off no matter what so from a travel agents point if view it's better to be full even if hugely discounted because they are still getting paid. If seats were empty they wouldn't... Hope that makes sence:rotfl:

    When we returned from Mexico we were out shopping a few days later.. Walked past a travel agents... In the window was the hotel we had just stayed in. We could have flown 2 days later for £3,000 less than we had paid:eek:
    If only we had known....we were flexible with our holidays so could have gone anytime...(this was a few years ago, pre the monkeys)

    Off topic but can anyone advise on Mosquito patches?
    I normally use lotions and sprays from Boots. My cousin uses 'Don't bite me' patches from Amazon but they will work out to expensive for me, I'm off for 3 mths.
    So looking for a cheaper version that works, any ideas very welcome?
    TIA

    Unsure if anyone else has responded. I bought DD some wrist bands from home bargains. They were less than £ for 2 and lasted quite a long time. Unsure how many you would need for 3 months.
