What dates are they for?

I've looked at getting tickets, but every time I looked only the silly priced ones were available ....

If I can't get England or South Africa, New Zealand will do

The one I can't go to is NZ v Namibia on 24th September

I had to buy the tickets in January when the ballots opened :eek:

For anyone who received a £10 gift voucher in the post from Boden this morning......just to let you know it works on clearance stuff too.....just bought a striped long sleeved essential T shirt £7.60 plus £4 postage.....for £1.60:T

Ages since I've had a glitch like this and I'm buzzing:T

Trying to remember who my Boden partner in crime used to be.....might have been PD or eeeeeemmmmap:D

OMG - so envious.
Last year after comments on another thread I got the a boden catalogue and the £10 code worked for me - I got it twice and it worked on clearance items. I got a gorgeous Capri blouse and then an orange and white linen shift dress both for under a tenner.

They keep taunting me with the catalogues now - really could do with another Boden tenner

I've got a few dresses off ebay but even on ebay they are really expensive and around here you can never find anything in a charity shop

Great to see you FC :J

Sorry the last few weeks have been crap for you. I hope things are looking up for you very very soon

Did you manage to book the trip abroad for you all?

Yes I did. Out of sheer defiance I'm only managing 5 days at the end of the month but it's with all of the kids :j DS2 has his very detailed video of the airport, the transfer journey and the place we are staying and will be good to go by then I reckon.
Well now that I've convinced him that yes they do have TVs, Internet and flushing toilets in Portugal :rotfl:

Oh FC....what a rubbish time:o stuff like this makes me so angry......if we, as relatively intelligent people :cool: find it hard to find out and understand what's going on how do the hard of hearing cope, those with learning disabilities, the elderly with no support etc. bloody disgraceful.
Remember that fortune favours the brave...chin up:A

They even have McDonald's there :rotfl:

I'm sure you'll all have a fab time, you certainly need it

Just been to Ts at the right time & got literally a week's worth of posh fruit, veg, salads, meat, fish & bread for £8.50

The most expensive item was a RTC 60p pizza :eek:

I only went for milk

Yours might arrive on Monday mhoc:) don't know why they send stuff like this to me. I spend hardly anything with them and what I do spend is glitched:)

OMG - its true you are back :T

We have missed you - night shift has vanished altogether, we are all tucked up in bed with hot water bottles, fleeces and cats by 10 o'clock

I can't believe you have been so patient with the medics - I would have gone into meltdown from the get go - I am a firm believer in perseverance, if I don't get the answer I want in the first phone call I ring next day and keep ringing until someone listens, explains, gives possible solutions and then the correct answer - success with sky and Admiral using this method

So you have been trotting back and forth to various departments, it's very waring, isn't it. MY OH has just gone back to work after 4 weeks, I lost count of his appointments - just had to let him get on with it, but he is back at the coal face again ...

So Monday is your D day when they will finally tell you what all the tests have been about

Thank you. I have very much missed reading your posts too

My patience was more confusion than patience I do already know what all the tests were about now, thanks to the meltdown doctor. Although I'd already figured no one would make another human being endure that bone marrow expiration _pale_ without a very good reason :eek:

I hope your OH is better. I have managed to plod into work a few times but got fed up of people telling me I look tired :rotfl: so am very thankful that for a lot of the time I can do minimal work from home.
