    Apologies but so far out of the Elite loop I could be on another continent :o
    Apologies for my absence but it is a stressful time

    A quick update

    Fourps Mum had a bleed on the brain on Christmas day. She was transferred to the Heath hospital in Cardiff where we expected treatment,
    Unfortunately nothing was done except she had to lie horizontal & not move until today when the Registrar returned to work
    On Sunday she got worse & was giving up the will to live :(:(:(
    Today she was meant to have the blue dye thing in her brain to see the extent of the bleed.
    I am only receiving texts from Fourp who has stayed with her, instead she was operated on at 10.30am & did not come out of theatre until 4.30pm.
    She is now on a high dependency ward & things are grim :(

    Why oh why did they leave her for so long?

    My Parents have gone home & I'm working until Weds - so on a limb here.
    She will never have the same quality of life & our own lives will have to change to look after her.
    Fourp has no intention of coming home for several months as his position is by his Mother's side ♥

    Anyway enough of me & my troubles, just needed to write it down, please skip & ignore me :o

    Oh snap how awful....the best advice I can give you is not to look too far ahead.......just take each day as it comes. Thinking of you and fourp:A:A

    I can confirm this works. I usually have 2 or 3 online eVouchers sitting there ready to be claimed whenever I think fit. I always claim the oldest one to make sure nothing drops off the system.

    Thanks for confirming this - so I can safely order another CC for tomorrow and leave 'claiming' yesterdays APG until the beginning of January. I know we used to have to claim the old one first otherwise it would be lost.

    Hi FC :j

    Sorry, I don't really know you as I'm a poor excuse for an 'elite' member as I'm always late to the party and don't have the balls to do a glitch justice but I just wanted to say, I think you rock!!! The way you handled this situation was very dignified and the perfect way to deal with ignorant twits. Just wanted to say yer awesome! And, frankly, I think your son is too since he didn't give a damn about them! :T:T

    Aww thank you :A yes he is rather awesome :D His attitude, however unintentional makes it very hard for others to bully him which isn't a bad thing. I'm sure it must be very frustrating for those who have tried to realise he really, really doesn't care and is quite literally immune to it!
    People warm to his attitude to his problems. He will give anything a go and does not suffer embarrassment in any way at all. He's recently been trying to tackle at Pommel Horse in PE at school with not much success I believe :o but in the final lesson he finally got over it and the whole class cheered him on :D:D. Made me smile....a lot!

    Afternoon.
    After a basic question that I really should know the answer to being answered please.
    If I put an adsa order in today for collection tomorrow (for chocs) will I be able to cancel tomorrow afternoon if they stop working before my collection?
    Many thanks.
    Your email should tell you the time up to which you can amend your order, which will depend upon the time of collection. Up to that time you may amend or cancel your order.
