    Scotmum, mine does the same, doesn't hold its charge, and when I think it's charged, if I take a call, the battery dies.

    Will have to start looking at what's available for the price I'm prepared to pay.

    Same with mine though not as bad, if I turn it off it won't turn back on for ages. Really don't want to get tied to a long contract though, esp with Sky announcing they are going to move into mobile next year.
    I am not a nice Nargle at present, very angry due to a number of things that have happened workwise this week (including being summoned to a meeting and threatened with disciplinary action due to the number of sick leaves I have had, only to find they had their wires crossed and I should not have been sent that rather threatening letter after all).
    Still simmering a bit but have a reflexology session this morning so normal service should be resumed as soon as possible. Grrrrrrrrrr!

    :mad: on your behalf. I hope they will manage to send you a suitably grovelling letter of apology since they are clearly good with your address.

    Would you count this as a no spend day?

    Took back a Christmas present from my hubby got £15 change bought the replacement which was £5.00 cheaper. Put 2x £2 coins into my pot and bought 2x chocolates for 60p (which was bought out of the Xmas money).

    I would count it as a NSD as you already counted the spend before.

    Talking of which, I'm declaring nsd11 I did order something for my niece, but it's for.....XMAS! :D so doesn't count. Feeling quite chuffed I've done a lot of my xmas 2015 shopping already. :D

    Declaring my NSD's for January as 12/10 so 2 over target. I have to take the cat to the Vet tonight and do some shopping tomorrow so know that I will be spending on both days.

    Looking forward to a successful February of NSD's;)

    :hello: Hi there all xxx


    Wow!! some amazing figures coming in; Well done everyone :j

    Another one under the belt for Friday bringing me up to 18 :D. I am going to try to spend nothing tomorrow ad get shopping and stuff done on Sunday instead; the shops will be a bit quieter then too I hope. I really must go right through the freezer before I go so that I don't get anything I don't need as sometimes that happens and I end up with no room for something I DO need.........which I have usually forgotten to put on my list anyway. :o. I am low on cat food too so need to get that in for the month while I'm out. I will need to stock up on electric and petrol but may do that on Monday as I know that will be a spendy day too.

    I'm a bit worried about one of my windscreen wipers though as since it snowed the other day the one on the passenger side doesn't seem to be working :(. I shall have a fiddle with it in the morning and if it still seems frozen in place can get a mate to look at it on Sunday hopefully :)

    Okies, keep warm everyone, see you tomorrow xxx

    I did indeed mention the F-word - but not in relation to my target / NSD, so get those oversized goldfish back into their bowls :rotfl:

    Apologies. :o
