    Glad you're ok PD. What idiots. And at least you got to eat some smashed up cake :)

    Feeling slightly better today. I'm also freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee of this job. Hahahahahahahaha!! :D

    Popped into town this avo to pick something up from M&S and the click and collect queue was quite long. A woman at the front of the queue loudly talking about bad service and generally being !!!!!y to the poor girl on the till. One of the items she'd ordered hadn't arrived and you should have seen the fit she threw!! It would have been funny if she was a teenage girl but she was a grown woman. She stormed off and the woman in front of me chuckled. I said 'c'mon, it is Christmas....' And another woman in front of me pointedly looked around and said, 'But we still expect good prompt service! I've paid for my items! The queues are always terrible in here'

    The way they were all going on you'd think they were suffering some kind of hardship, rather than being in the fortunate position of picking up some shopping. I made a point of saying Merry Christmas to the girl, she was only young and looked exhausted.

    I'm making a conscious effort to be nicer day to day as I'm sure I've been THAT person in the queue before.

    BE Simply Haddock Fillets in Breadcrumbs (4 pack) £3.99 M and 1000 points vs A (where else?) at £3.

    And Peppa Pig Strawberry Lollies (6x60ml) £1.99 and 500 points vs T at £1.50. Still makes them at best £1:eek:.

    And that's it:( - shame they are against different places - others (Aunt Bessies 8 pack Dumplings, Chicago Deep Pan Pepperoni and Cornetto Classico) not worth it as no good prices elsewhere.

    This may interest some:

    Colgate Pro Clinical Max White One Electric Toothbrush C350

    A £30.00:eek::rotfl:
    M £5.50

    Check very very carefully - is it a twinpack? Says "Pro Clinical", "Triple Clean Electric Toothbrush", "Max White 1", "Powered by Omron", "C350". Bet it won't compare:rotfl::rotfl:. May just buy in M. On "trial price", we are told, until 28/12 after which it says it will go to £11!

    I'll put it onto the list (for a laugh:rotfl:), even though that was supposed to have been finished, but I don't expect it to work and it's all at your risk!

    (Believe it or not, £30 is a reduced price - down from £60 allegedly:rotfl::rotfl:.)

    Good evening :)

    Folks that have Ts delivery saver.......
    Free next day delivery on Ts Direct orders over £10. Last orders for guaranteed Christmas delivery 5pm on the 22nd. Good for last minute gifts.

    Hope everyone is well. I have no time to catch up....again.

    I can't believe there's only a day and a half left of school :eek:
    DS2 is being his usual challenging self at Christmas. There's so many things about it that just don't fit in with what he likes. It's blinkin hard work. He doesn't know how he can handle finishing school halfway through a class at an odd time on Friday so that will be fun!
    He's also relocated every scrap of Christmas wrapping paper in the house and won't tell me where to........he's worried I will put wrapping paper on his presents which he detests! I've searched everywhere I can think of to no avail. I'm beginning to think that he might have binned it all in the bins that were emptied last Friday. He's been perfectly honest and admitted it was him but he 'can't risk telling me the whole truth' :rotfl::rotfl:

    Oh and Chris from yesterday is a female and apparently I'm not the only person who's had to ask :cool:
