  • Anyone need any superglue? It is risky as it is A v M, but a very good price if it works..;)

    Just been negotiating to renew my TalkTalk contract and found out from 1st Dec anyone on the Plus TV broadband and calls package can get a free Sim for 100 mins, 250 texts and 200mg data per month https://sales.talktalk.co.uk/product/broadband
    I was on an old contract that isn't being offered any more and this will cost less.

    Correct.

    Cashback by redemption is very simple. Don't read too much into the HUKD comments.

    As long as you're organised and post/email the necessary bills then all will be fine.

    :)

    :eek:Last one I opted for the £90 automatic payment after 1 month or 3 less chance of them going bust or something going wrong :D

    Surely I'm not the first to unlock the £50 bonus?



    Thanks for all the useful suggestions, I had 3 medium sized purchases and 9 smaller ones.

    does she want you to make dinner ready and then all he has to do is put it in the oven and then he can impress the girlfriend? :D
    Apparently not...get this....they are meeting up in the afternoon and going shopping for the food and he's suggested they bring it here to cook!!!


    I'm not sure if they really have thought too much about the logistics of it all but he did say to me on the way home this evening that he will walk her home afterwards....its quite a trek in the dark so I think I may speak to OH and see if perhaps we ought to drop the girl home afterwards


    It seems to stem from the fact that whilst we live on the edge of a rather large city,its expensive to get into on public transport and even when you get into town on a saturday night its noisy and probably not that nice for a couple of teens!


    Apparently she lives not too far away but probably a good 25min walk there and back, she has been at school with him for several years although she's not someone I know...although saying that I probably only really know a handful in his class to talk to and they are mainly other boys


    so staying in looks to be the new going out...and its the start of a new era for us.

    The first night that DS1 had a girl to stay overnight…. I needed therapy! I gave DS2 £20 to sleep in the loft away from noises!

    When DS1 announced that she was staying another night, I told them they have to stay in the caravan… I thought …phew… until the shower went on at 3 am…. I nearly had a breakdown…
    Small steps...I'm not even going to entertain the idea if a sleep over...


    And breathe....
