    Cant you buy a sim free smartphone and put your contract sim in it ? Perhaps someone with more knowledge will know :D

    Don't like those cauliflowers on Candy but I am sat by your side ;):p

    I could get a sim free phone, but the only problem with my contract is that it has no data, and I suspect when I get a smartphone I am going to neeeeeeeeed data :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Well done with Candy, cauliflowers are ok when they go spotty, don't like them getting in the way in the meantime though, especially on this level :eek::eek:

    Thats fantastic, I need a bit of your motivation!

    I am going back on the low carbing from January. Its the only thing that seems to work for me, although tricky as I am a vegetarian (great excuse to eat lots of cheese though!).

    I've got lots of weight to shift, and want to give it a really good go. Big holiday in June/July, then my 40th, followed by major surgery, so would be nice to be a few stone lighter!

    I do eat meat but am fussy meat wise. I am slowly getting to being normal weight not a fatty bum bum :j:j

    Sending positive thoughts if I can lose weight anyone can.

    Just think my work trousers not fastening made me start SW ;)

    I'm not happy with M&S bank - they promised me and DH £125 gift cards when we switched and we've only got £100 cards ! We were both assured that it was definetly £125 each because we initially applied online - I was surprised but accepted what we were told and am now perishing well cross. Just got off the phone and they want to know who I spoke to way back in October - how the hell am I supposed to remember that when I had conversations with at least 8 different staff as they had trouble with their computer system at the time and it all took numerous phone calls. In any event, they said it didn't matter cos whoever told me £125 was wrong and all we are getting is the £100.

    So its Ok for them to give out duff information - and they don't have to abide by it. They think just an apology is good enough.

    Even the woman in the little M&S bank in Torquay told me yesterday that we should get £125 and told me to phone them today to sort it out. A complete waste of time as they are just not interested in doing anything about it.

    Has to be worth a letter to Head Office, complaining about this and the attitude of the person you have just spoken to too.

    I hope everyone had a good time.
    Congratulations to a bailey for a new elite baby.
    I don't think I can face eating more chocolates or even buying them.

    Yogurts still ok.
