    Logie, we are having the same trouble but on a lesser scale. OH was in hospital, nearly lost his foot and had extensive surgery (7 hour operation, osteomyelitis in the ankle). He is a different person, less patient and several other things have changed. We are working through it but it is hard. I'm sure you will get there, it will just take time. We found a holiday where we had to concentrate on each other helped a lot.

    Don't need champagne, we have several bottles such as Lanson Black Label in the wine rack. Every time we drink one we end up being given two from other sources :eek:

    Since when did need come into it? :D :rotfl:
    Big hugs to you too :A
  • And further down the M40, A in H Wyc0mb3 had the D Silk Glow 250ml @ £1 - all others £2.55 - all showing £2.55 on a.com if anyone wants to chance a C&C

    I am very very close to caving in on the champers :o :rotfl::rotfl:

    I have not encouraged you at all have I? :o :eek: :rotfl:
  • And a quick question - havent used cheese codes yet and see the deal with the cheese selection. I would be able to put the order in now but wouldnt be able to collect until Friday, in that time will i lose the benefit of it going into my basket at £8? Do they take the price when you place the order, or when you collect? TIA!

    Big hugs Logie. Can so identify with the arguing thing :o I think when massive life changing things happen it's inevitable that it will cause unrest. Some things just change who you are. You are obviously a lovely couple who adore your children and you'll get through it :A

    Yeah, we will get there :) Think he was hopeful things would improve over time and after numerous trips to the GP. He's coming to the realisation this may be the way I am now and it's taking some adjustment. We still love each other though and that will get us through.

    You need over £60 in your basket ( not sure how much exactly, mine was £69. xx) to get it down more because the 25% off comes off before you can add the £10 off £50. I had a £53 coat and a £16.99 jumper. it came down to £31 odd

    thanks I'd also tried it with a £12 jumper added too and still couldn't get it down further :( not to worry I think I was just getting caught up in the excitement and really I don't need any more coats or boots, house is full to bursting with them! :o

    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.

    The cheese codes are being removed from my basket as I am about to order. Saying the coupon has become invalid. Are they fixing it? I think you would be charged the price on collection

    Sorry to hear you've been having problems too. Think time is definitely what we need. It's the one thing we struggle to make for each other. I work odd days so it's rare to be off together and when we are, I am shattered. Think reducing my hours at work could improve things but I've got used to the money and need to be brave to take a cut again.

    Another list I can join you on Elite Hoarders. ;) I think you have done really well parting with some of your makeup stash. I ought to go through mine. I don't have any big brands but DD3 is a fussy so and so now she is on her course. She wants Xmas gift vouchers for Urban Decay as they went into college last week, all my Boots No17 bargains are now redundant. :(

    I'm on the no more buying toiletries thread :o on the health and beauty board, have been for several years but sometimes a glitch is just too good to pass up ;):rotfl:

    Good morning!:)

    Just noticed this:
    ASDA Onion Rings (150g) 85p vs 69p T.

    This isn't an excuse to buy what you would otherwise not!

    And, with that, I'm off to Morries, goodbye:rotfl:.
