    Got me there on both counts :( I dont have a mortgage (neither do they) but i still have rent and bills to pay, and i dont have anyone to "support" me either :(


    But I will love to make a living out of plants and produce :D

    I think there's a big difference between quitting with no idea of what to do and no back-up plan, and quitting to run your own business, or at least knowing you can sign on with an agency and get any kind of work to tide you over until you decide what you want to do.

    Having seen your plants and produce on here, I'd love to see what you could make happen. From little acorns grow big oak trees, as they say :)

    Mine wasnt Muslim else we could have had the same boss:eek::eek: then one xmas he said you need to come in 10-2 (boxing day) i didnt drive then, was in a different town i said you need to pick me up then which he did, 3pm we are still there hubby rang to find out where i was as we were going out and i said he says we still have to work, he said no you dont Jo (my sis) will come and fetch you:T:T:T
    He said dont forget your on early tomorrow when i went(newsagents) i said told you i cant get here cause sunday service.
    As it happened snowed like hell next day didnt get there till 10:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: with notice in hand:D

    Mine was a newsagents too. He wasn't there when I handed in my notice, left it on his desk, apparently he was swearing revenge when he read it, was threatening to make me work every hour he could until I left, deputy reminded him that he couldn't cos I had expected this and what informed him that if manager tried anything I would just not go in. :D

    My work now is more unpredictable than ever, working with OH certainly has it's challenges!

    Groupon getting on my nerves been trying to buy something and when I press buy now nothing happens. Been searching for chat online or phone number but cant find anything. Was ordering Sunday but gave up email sent reminding me I had said item in basket well it can stay there if it wont let me buy :(

    First time I have wanted to buy anything from Groupon.

    Just back, came home via sainsbobs - very disappointed as the Rachels Divine pots are £2 in store (£1 online :mad: ) so they were abandoned at the self scan - very sad, they even come in little glass jars .. I love things that come in little glass jars...

    If you have a spare few minutes its worth walking very slowly down the frozen food and ice cream section as sainsbobs have a few things reduced eg ice lollies, desserts etc
    - there new orange SELS are very annoying as everything looks like its on offer.

    We did find on the dried fruit section
    whitworth pineapple and cashew snack pack 25g
    reduced to 10p :T

    these have just over 100 kcals so a good alternative for when the seabrooks crisp mountain finally runs out :D

    OH made me get all of them on the shelf 27 bags :eek: but I did part pay with a wombled BM

    very useful to have in your bag incase you are stuck on a train for 7 hours with no food :rotfl:

    Are you remembering to go through Topcashback?

    Have you tried clearing your cookies and going though again?

    The pots go to £2 when you add to basket online :(

    Still a good few months left on coupon though :D
