    I would be annoyed if they didn't pick the ironing up when they said.

    If I was tired I would have stayed in bed this morning and they would have had to return later for the ironing.

    He didn't even let me know tweets so was hanging round all afternoon yesterday. And this morning dog would have woke me too if he had come to door :( xx
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    Ah the joys of Mr A staff...
    1st shop - went to a young lad at the far end checkout who was happily chatting to me about the scandal of the GBBO and then commented on how well I'd done to get an APG of £9.23 last time, saying "You know what? I bet those hair oils were much cheaper somewhere else". No problems whatsoever.

    2nd shop - went to SS tills. SA came to authorise my APG of £8.91 and, after scrutinizing both APG & receipt for a few minutes, announced she didn't think she could take that as it seemed a lot to get back on my original shop (especially as the original reciept already showed a saving of £9.97 on the 3 for £10). Off she went to check with someone else. Five minutes later they decided they would take it but wanted to keep my receipt to show the manager as there was "obviously something wrong with it". I politely said I would like my receipt back and, with a smile, said I could tell them what was wrong with it....the hair products were half the price in Sains! "Oh?" "Oh." "Oh! That explains it!" said she and happily took the APG and gave me back my receipt.

    You'd never think their staff were all trained in the same world!

    Thanks for the replies. Feel a bit better now.

    I think main things I'm annoyed about is lack of thought
    Ie, no text to say he wasn't coming at 3pm.
    No text to see if he could come so early. I could have put dog away then and nobody would have been woken.
    They know my dog is a problem barker and I'm at my wits end worrying about effects of this on neighbours.
    I do feel bad though :( being off with him.
