  • I suppose I don't really work nights now. For about the last 12 years I worked 10pm - 6am but for the last year it has been 6pm - 1.30am (or later if particularly busy)
    More Twilight/Backshift, at least I get home in darkness usually so better for sleeping.
    Don't think I will ever be 'normal' again!

    Were you normal to start with? :p

    I'm making my friends wedding cakes in a months time, well a 6 inch cake and 120 cupcakes to be precise all in varying flavours of chocolate. Aside from needing 34 eggs and 3.25kg of butter, I also need 1.4kg of cocoa powder. If anyone notices any cheap(er) baking ingredients I would be very grateful if you would give me shout :)

    Well said ;)

    I did mention last week that according to previous reviews some people got good discount refunded if they didn't get 3 of each as described and rang. But I totally agree LEJC you should take the rough with the smooth. :)
    thats probably one of the main reasons I dont do the cheaper mystery whites or reds anymore.....you can quite often pick your own selection of 12 wines off the shelf with selective reductions and therefore it doesnt need to contain weight watchers and that wonderful german stuff beginning with L!

    but for me the fizz still works out good...gives us the chance to get a few things that probably you wouldnt pick off the shelves for the price

    They were with Talk Talk.....it used to be their business line, although they only pay residential now as retired.....they are going mad over it :(

    Ok, Talk Talk also use BT for the lines.

    It sounds like someone is being lazy, they could port the number, basically only changing who bills for the line.

    They need to demand to know why they are saying they can't keep their number, and they need to contact Talk Talk to see if it was anything their end. There is something very strange going on there.

    I would say this is only from what I have heard, I cannot absolute!y guarantee I am right but fair!y sure.

    They were £1.50 yesterday at T because I looked especially....I think the price would only have changed today

    Thanks for clarifying that Ledlights....

    Although the downside is you now have to eat 10 Dr O pizzas...
    I shouldn't be ungrateful for free pizza but gosh those are beginning to become difficult to eat...I have 2 coupons left and I think I'm going to retire from the promotion once I've used them!

    I'll repost this, since my post has substantially changed (at the end) - may not have been seen.

    Is this available in A?

    I note other versions are available in A and are on £3.98 and 2 for £4. I also note that I've used msm here:rotfl:, which is now irrelevant, rather than a.com - but the "---" for A would suggest that it is not on a.com (you'll need to check, as usual I don't have time - I'm adding things to the M list). It may simply be that A does not stock this version (I have no idea), however, if it does, then others are available in 2 for £4, and some (or maybe all) of them are £2 in T and in M.

    EDIT: There are also some Air Wick Candles that may compare £3.98 A vs £2 M - [Strike]A have the White Vanilla Bean but not the Lavender?:huh: (Could Lavender be an alternative trigger (if indeed it is available in A at all) - of course, don't go getting two triggers in the same shop:rotfl:?)[/Strike] SECOND EDIT: A *do* have the Lavender - it's just listed separately on msm but is the same as the Morries one. (I remember - I've been down this road before, privately when I was doing the M list when the Air Wick Candles went on offer a month or two ago.) However, M now have Lake District candle and also Cairngorms candle - which may be new and may be available in A but not on a.com?
