    I am still an idiot! I have ordered a Voafone 4g sim only contract ... Only to find that I won't get 4g on my iPhone 5 as it is not supported on Vodafone (or O2 for that matter) due to it not supporting their frequencies.

    A good SIM only deal but I won't see the full benefit ... I spent AGES deciding and missed this key piece of information :(.

    Morning :wave:


    Congrats on your new family member Scamps :j

    Sorry to hear about your family friend fc

    I don't believe in policing how people use the :mad: emoticon and it's very presumptuous to say that's all they have to get :mad: about. When I had what I think of as a breakdown (though I know there's no such thing), I couldn't tell people what had happened to me, because they either felt incredibly uncomfortable or didn't believe me. I couldn't go telling people on a public forum, and some of my emotional reactions to small things probably seemed a little extreme. My dh, who has ptsd gets very extreme emotional responses to things that are small, that's just the nature of how his illness effects him

    I agree that if that's all you have to worry about then you've generally got it good compared to others here, but it isn't a competition :)

    Can I just mention again Tilda Rices at 79p in M (the specific ones that M have)......

    Wonder if anyone knows how to get the best Tilda comparison?? Will it compare with Morrisons today I wonder? Or do we have to wait for catch-up?
    Ta. :)

    I may do that tbh - though the only networks offering 4g that will work on this phone are EE and 3 (and any mvno who use them and end up getting 4g) and they are the worst deals out there on Cashback/redemption :(. So either stick with the decent deal and accept I will only get 3G, get a more expensive deal on EE/3 to get 4g or get a different phone to get 4g - that's obviously the most expensive option. For what I use it for 4g may be a step too far anyway.

    Sim deal is great though from Mobiles.co.uk - £3.99 a month for unlimited mins/texts and 1gb data (plus £20 additional Quidco Cashback) made this less than £3 a month - offer still available or on O2 with 1000 mins and £10.50 additional TCB on either network. It is a redemption deal so you have to send specific bills off but manageable if you keep organised.

    Xmas Saver!
    I'll be glad when this week is over. I'm cleaning Jewish people's houses for Passover. Some of these houses are :eek: Like a scene from those TV programmes about cleaning scruffy houses :eek: and so much clutter :eek: This is not what I what I was expecting and 6-8 hours a day of cleaning these messes is certainly different from being sat at a desk. I was hoping to dust and vacuum tidy homes that get cleaned weekly :o I remind myself that at least I'm away from my horrible ex boss, no job could be worse than being around her. It will be quieter next week as Passover starts. It seems some of these people only get their houses cleaned once a year then be minging until next Passover :eek: I hope I don't come across as racist as not saying they're all like this, some of the houses are lovely but most are filthy and cluttered. Like the rest of us some will be clean and tidy and others scruffy, I guess the tidy ones don't need me as much as the scruffy ones do :D

    Supermarkets are running out of Easter Eggs apparently ... though I seem to recall most run their stocks down this week so that they don't end up with loads left...

    The Easter egg hunt is ALREADY on as supermarket websites run out http://dailym.ai/1DfybIW (Newspaper link)
