Because I am Scottish, I think I got a different meaning from the rest of your diary followers? :rotfl:
Still doesn't trump me sitting talking to DD with my head at potty level as she tried to poo this morning0 -

How's your old boy coping with the new additions?
When you go for your glasses, remember to check online for buying them, some companies do great offers and are considerably cheaper and some of the big chain companies are even cheaper online than they are in store (which is just plain wrong if you ask me). DD1 just used an online company and got glasses with thinned lenses for around £20."Start every day off with a smile and get it over with" - W. C. Field.0 -

Beanie - hope you don't mind me hi-jacking for a moment.:)
Pooky - do you know of anyone who has had varifocals from on-line? I am nervous of it, because it is important to me that they are marked up right, also my one ear is fractionally higher than the other and if not fitted right they are lopsided when on:eek::eek:The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time.

Best boy is okish.
Lots of hissing and growling but no actual fighting.

Like maddiemay I am not convinced that online would work for me.
Anyone got success stories with varifocals?
Also what if the fit is not quite right?

I recommend Zooplus for cat food which is cheaper than supermarkets - http://www.zooplus.co.uk/
Sometimes Amazon is cheaper but generally on Zooplus they have % free so for instance the other day the dog food I got was 18kg rather than 15kg for £39.99 which made it way cheaper than anywhere else.
Zooplus is also on the cashback sites, might only be pence but it adds up especially if you are ordering regularly.0 -
Thanks EE
Ordered from Amazon last night & just been delivered.
As it was heavy & it is chucking it down at present I am well chuffed with that :T :T

You know the other day I bit the bullet & went for Amazons offer of the day.
It was one of those one cup thingys.
I have wanted one for years but I could bot justify the cost.
Anyway it was a penny under 25 quid & I just love love love it.I am a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Mortgage Free Wannabe & Local Money Saving Scotland & Disability Money Matters.
