I'm sure there'll be a glitch on the xmas knickers in January as well. There usually isoh the combination possibilities.......:rotfl:

Morning everyone
Did a A v W last night to take advantage of the weetabix minis as they are only £1.25 in W.
Don't know if it's been mentioned but the Lenor classic 1.1L is only £1.50 in W and there is a savvy moc for £1, giving an end price of 35p if done on a A v W. I got the moonlight but should work on all 4 fragrances.
Also the Bertolli spread 500g is 90p in W and on SP for 40p, so end price of 41p if done on a A v W.

Good morning Elite :hello:
Cold but sunny here in Suffolk.
Set the alarm for 7.30am as I've got my hospital appointment for my eyes this morning. DS3 going to take me as they will be putting drops in :eek:and I'm not to drive. I am quite confused about what I'm going to the hospital for now :undecided. My new optician refered me to the hospital as he thought my channels (?) of was it ducts (?) were too narrow to insert drop in my eyes, hence the appointment. Said appointment is at the Glaucoma Clinic , so now I don't know what to think . Ho hum time will tell.
Quick shower and a coffee then
Happy shopping x
Good luck at your hospital appointment.
I've got transport coming any time from 11 to take me to London for mine.
Well done to your DD FC. My DS passed in July, and was lucky enough to be bought a car by his grandparents as an early 18th present. He has had it around 3 weeks now.
He does have P plates, although we printed them out and stuck the on both windscreens, as the cheapie ones we bought from the poundshop flew off as the magnets weren't very good!
I think they are useful. As you said, the insurance scammers are everywhere, and as a police officer certainly in my force it doesn't seem to be people with p plates that are picked on any more than anyone else. DS is still not always great with hill starts, although getting better, so its nice to have a warning to others (if they bother to look!). Whenever he drives anywhere I make him text me when he gets there, can't help being worried! :rotfl:0 -

it depends on how posh you want to go.
a good place to start is here
http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/deals/cheap-restaurant-deals
also deal zippy - put your postcode in the box and you get a map of what deals are local - groupon and living social and don't forget to go via Topcashback
http://www.dealzippy.co.uk/
but watch for restrictions like no Friday or Saturdays.
but its well worth signing up for all of the chains and looking out for the opening of new resturants close to you.
Our eldest reminded us at the weekend that for her 18th we went to an all you can eat Chinese locally - well at the time it was very posh to us, there was no chain eateries around here and our two lads could eat their own body weight
If there are a huge crowd of you it might be worth doing what we did once - we had a chef in to cook a posh meal in our own home - we brought the wine, he brought posh china, all the ingredients and did all of the cooking and clearing up - its was only about £10 per person at the time - probably about £20 to £30 now
if you sign up to Bella italia on their latest newsletter there is a buy one main get another for £1 so that might be about £12 for 2 mains - drinks are very expensive though.
if you have an All Bar One close to you then sign up to their list. On their latest email update
"Our special menu sampling evenings are on Wednesday 7th and Wednesday 14th October, and you and your friends can enjoy a two-course menu with a glass of Prosecco for just £10" .
Toby carvery is another good one to sign up for 2 courses for £6.50 - good for big family groups.

buy one get one free - nice menu

Morning All - Quick hello goodbye as out the door in 5 mins! Will have to catch up later. xx0

Enterprise, he has previously lived at Khoa Lak Thailand, it was lovely and reasonably easy to get to in comparison to where he is now!:p:p:p:p:p
