    Was going to ask, then saw your other post. Fair enough :)


    2 weeks and 2 days until I set off :j:j:j:j:j

    deep sigh - I expect that you are going to torture us with your pre cruise prep stories now ... :rotfl:

    I've resigned myself now to waiting - we were hoping to get a week long one in sometime in September or October but its not happened - builder was here over 3 weekends so at least that's done.

    but then FB told me last Sunday that last year I was in Rouen .... deep sigh

    I didn't order until late on Sunday so my order might be a few days yet, getting very excited

    MB would have been good for Quidco £12 cashback shops

    Quidc CB tracked for the whole £30 :D

    Also the CB from the BS body butters is payable already. That could be a record! Bought on 26th September

    Talking of Quidc....
    I Sent a rant to them about bespoke after the declined £1 CB last week. Some of mine are still showing tracked but a lot declined. I put a lot of valuable time into getting that CB so worthy of a moan :D I've received the following from them :

    Hi,

    We are aware of issues with Bespoke Offers at the moment and I would like to assure you that we are looking into this as a priority.

    Please do be assured that we will be in touch as soon as we have any further information for you and I am sorry for any inconvenience caused.

    Nice to see you BB. Hope you are well. My MB stuff came today. I got the cracker set too and it's lovely for a gift. I also got a bauble. My main problem will be parting with it as a gift, as I'm really tempted to put it in my stash :rotfl::rotfl:

    Yes im the same --I think I might send myself at least 1 bauble as a gift:rotfl:

    but then decisions which one ???

    or should I give myself all 3:eek:

    AH wait till its through uphill and naked then he might give you some sympathy.

    AS my father used to say "still breathing, thats a start"


    I remember him sitting reading the Obits from the Courier and saying such and such had passed. What of Mum would ask.

    "Lack of breath " :rotfl:

    I've just about justified keeping that cracker for myself :D

    My premium toiletry stash has spiralled out of control again recently :o not to the extent that it has in the past, but beyond what I vowed it would. I'm reducing it by making up a posh pamper hamper to raffle or auction at an upcoming fundraiser for work. Some of the smaller stuff is going in my VIP goody bags for the same event.

    So there will be room and there will be no guilt because I'll have reduced it to an acceptable level. i think I'm just about convinced......:rotfl:
  • Just got my John Lewis vouchers through. £5 voucher when I spend £50 and a hot drink and cake. The only problem with that one is it is valid 07-31 January 2016, no fair :(
