    No one is useless I can promise you that.

    Oh dear went and got my script. I wanted to see if I can get help with my costs as I have no income and some savings. What a big who haw that was, The correct form was filled in but I was told they have to keep it. I have never done this before and knew that could not be right.

    In the end she gave me the filled in form and now need to work it out what I need to do with it now :rotfl:

    Spent loads of money I don't have today and last night. Oh well!!!

    A bit annoyed bought some cherries last night in aldi put them in the fridge and noticed this morning they are mouldy I know its only 59P:mad:

    Hugs and handshakes to everyone who needs them.

    Yours

    If I'd have had a proper paper manual I would've worked all this stuff out weeks ago. Online stuff just goes completely over my head, it might as well not be there. Technophobe? What technophobe?

    I'm blaming the sun on my spending. Was forced to sit and buy lunch by the canal instead of eating the banana I'd taken with me. Now I'm meant to be working and just need an afternoon kip.

    Calley, cherries come into the house.

    30 minutes later, only cherry stones left.

    That's how you deal with cherries!

    None of this 'putting them into the fridge' lark! :rotfl:

    Calley, take a photo of the mouldy Cherries next to the receipt/best before sticker and post it on Aldi's Faceache page, you'd probably get a very nice person offering your money back! I once posted a pic of some disappointing looking muffins on the Gregg's FB page and got a voucher as a gesture of goodwill. :)

    Sounds like you have a magic fridge like mine Calley. The minute you put something in it ages 100 times faster than it ever did in the shop!

    I have decided that today doesn't count and am starting again tomorrow. Pretending today hasn't existed!

    How about the vent thread on here mentioning how disappointed you were etc. And mention the full name of the shop!!!!!

    Feeling a bit better now as I seem to have cried over everyone today. Youngest is coming back around five and bringing a friend for tea so I got some basics steak, fresh mushrooms , creme fraiche and salad to make a nice but quick and fairly healthy meal.

    Sending home made pizza wheels to the fort and virtual hugs to all.
