    Off to have a lay down, try to recoup a lost hour or so :rotfl::rotfl:
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.
  • Same in mine and I'm also in South Yorkshire :hello:

    Bar***ly? Hi MT2M :hello:Have you any idea of why the scanning of receipts? Maybe it's to work out why some of the glitches are happening and correct them.

    I've been out this morning selectively shopping with the assortment of vouchers and managed to get

    the yeo ginger yogurt,the beloved bars,2 small tins of the john west spreadables and the deodorant in A thats part coupon and part CS...

    I also wombled a couple of receipts whilst in the A carpark that have produced £1.22 of APG'S

    Sounds like a productive trip;)
    I'm not having much luck with vouchers, I tried printing the mail deo one but 30minutes later I was still going round in circles asking permission to install then nothing....:( I gave in ....


    My posite has just brought a selection of back to school mocs for Mr t....some lunch items and a few for spends on stationary...

    I also sent for a material sample for a new kitchen blind... I'm trying to coordinate it with my tiles in the kitchen and my dining room colour. The pattern is a darkish flower design with smaller lighter flowers and foliage....my sample material contains a stem!!! Quite what I can tell from that I'm not sure...
    Dunelm it is then ;)

    Right now the tea is drank and I've caught up I'd better get back to the house scrubbing.

    This is D day.

    As usual events have collided rather than being neatly seperated but fortunately the builder has put us back on the waiting list, could not have done with the house in a messy state this weekend.

    Eldest son, having ignored me for 2 days finally sent me a picture of an Airbus wing so I assume he is in the air now - they put the flight back a day, no idea why.
    So I now have one son on expeditions at one side of the world and the other one on exercises on the other - as far apart as its possible for them to be :)

    My other big news (and the reason behind the vigourous house scrubbing over the last three weeks) is that eldest child is due home tonight for the weekend :j :j :j

    Her timing is very good, at least she will take my mind off what her brothers are up to at opposite sides of the world.

    OH says the fridge is looking very aspirational and at its maximum state of affluency - I said it was a joint Elite effort to get it to this level of perfection :T
    Top shelf is Yeo yogurts, happy eggs for Shopotize and various Aldi cheeses - she doesn't know aldi brands.
    Then there is a shelf of salad veg and one shelf of various fruits - all special offers from Aldi and Morrisons
    Then a juice shelf with coconut water and Yazoo milk.
    Bottom shelf is the chocolate shelf including the Tesco truffle balls.
    Plenty of various drinks in the doors including reduced Marks pear and ginger Bellini, J20 spritz etc

    Did you see Ann Robinson inspecting people fridges on TV last night - wonder what she would think of ours :)

    Check your emails if you are registered with the insiders...they have a new campaign.

    seems as if its some remote device that you can check your home when away from it...sadly its another one of the campaigns where they want an upfront deposit of £99 as security if the device is lost or broken whilst testing...
    apparently after the trial you can either send it back or purchase it at a reduced cost..

    not one for me...but I guess somebody does these trials else they wouldnt keep offering them.

    I got this email but not going there. I had enough with the Mr T home panels electric/gas thing :cool:

    I got it too and remembered your experience, so think this is one I won't be bothering with.
