    Afternoon everybody.
    Hope all is well.

    Today has been a long long day already. We had a kiddies party to attend this morning. It took up 4 hours of our day, I am soooo shattered. Ten 5 year olds all bowling for the 1st time, getting hyped up on haribo, juice and cake.
    Nearly an hours travel either way AND I had to visit the in laws on the way back. I am officially on strike now, I'm not lifting a finger till I've had a proper sit down (and a fat wedge of cake)
    Still lil stink had a fab morning, he's so knackered now he's just chilling with a DVD, should be a fairly quiet afternoon now.

    Afternoon luvlies, just in the hairdressers using their wifi ;). Thanks for asking pacifica, my shopping lol - wot a story - finally got to the bottom of it at 7.30am this morning :eek:

    Break down of communications at my store's end. Driver dropped my shopping off to the store, where I was supposed to be collecting it from, at 6pm last night. I was told it would be dropped to my home address as shopping wasn't at the store at 4pm when I went to collect it. Ended up waiting up till just after 12am. Phoned this morning and was put through to the store who couldn't apologise enough. DH collected it so all is good :D

    :eek::eek:

    I hope they apologised with some money off! :D

    Anyway here is what happened to us on Morrisons car park – quite a lot of it is to do with fate and being in the right place at the right time but mainly OH through being quick witted and nimble.
    We came out of the store and were putting the shopping in the car when I realised one of my wombles needed the attention of a Points Adder so OH went back into store as I put the trolley away. As I put the trolley in the trolley bay I found another womble so I rang OH but he said he was at the head of the queue so he refused to come and collect the newest receipt  It was a good job he refused otherwise he would not have been able to do his good deed of the day.
    He came back to the car and we set off, to the junction off the car park. Our petrol station is opposite the car park. We noticed a car at the petrol station suddenly go into reverse and do a swinging reverse and disappear off to another pump – a bit odd we thought but no madder than anything else that happens at petrol stations.
    It turned out that it was avoiding another car. The car infront at the first pump was slowly drifting backwards out of the petrol station without its driver, away from the petrol station and across the road. OH leapt out of our car and across the road, tried the handle of the run-away vehicle but it was locked. He then went behind and stopped the car from rolling any further backwards – only at this point did another chap come to help, everyone else was just driving around and avoiding it.
    It wasn’t moving very fast but it would have had enough weight and momentum to mount the pavement and then colide into another parked car if it were not for OH stopping it in its tracked.
    We then waited by the car which was in the middle of the roadway at right angles and after a few minutes the owner appeared running across totally aghast at what had happened – she had put fuel in, shut and locked the driver’s door, went in to pay for petrol, in doing so had set the car in motion - the parking brake was off and the car was not in gear.
    She was en route to the hospital to see a friend whose friend had just been diagnosed. That momentary lapse when her mind was not totally focused nearly cost her very dear, the insurance company would not have paid up for any damage her car would have done to the stationary car (or even several cars) on the car park.
    So the moral of the tale I suppose is always leave your car in first gear, triple check your parking break is on and don’t drive if you your concentration is not totally 100%, this is when mistakes can be a made.
    As I’ve said before we can’t leave the house, even to do a simple supermarket trip without something or other happening to us …

    Sometimes it is worth having perspective - I have chased round trying to get the best price on various items and then wondered if I had lost the plot (and petrol and time) - for £2 how much time and effort are you putting into this and is it REALLY worth it for £2 ... easily recouped on another offer :cool:.

    I agree :D
