    I get this message
    We seem to be having a few problems. Don't worry, the tech wizards are hard at work and we hope to be back up and running in no time.

    Please check back later to compare your shop.

    SP Instant Hot Chocolate has shot up in price! Was 58p, now 88p:eek:. May be a GC if lucky (it would be more than you'd get under T DTD if the equivalent were to happen in T).

    Borrowed from Facebook

    The other night I was invited out for a night with the “girls.” I told my husband that I would be home by midnight, “I promise!” Well, the hours passed and the margaritas went down way too easily. Around 3 a.m., a bit loaded, I headed for home. Just as I got in the door, the cuckoo clock in the hallway started up and cuckooed 3 times.

    Quickly, realising my husband would probably wake up, I cuckooed another 9 times. I was really proud of myself for coming up with such a quick-witted solution, in order to escape a possible conflict with him. (Even when totally smashed… 3 cuckoos plus 9 cuckoos totals 12 cuckoos = MIDNIGHT !)

    The next morning my husband asked me what time I got in, I told him “MIDNIGHT”… he didn’t seem !!!!ed off in the least. Whew, I got away with that one! Then he said “We need a new cuckoo clock.” When I asked him why, he said, “Well, last night our clock cuckooed three times, then said “oh !!!!” Cuckooed 4 more times, cleared its throat, cuckooed another three times, giggled, cuckooed twice more, and then tripped over the coffee table and farted.



    A typical night out for TM!!

    So all we need to do is a put a quotation mark like that after it and we're fine!:rotfl::rotfl: Sadly it's replaced the other part with exclamations - and actually made it worse: I know what you mean there but I read it initially as something 'worse' than the original word meant, which I've got in any event, so it is all pointless. It didn't bother me either way - maybe the system has begun to learn context:rotfl:.

    That said not everything has to have a point in life:cool:!

    Yes it was mentioned (I remember it now:rotfl:) - it's £3 RTC isn't it so it's CC/HD rather than 2 for £12 instore glitch.

    My stockpile of dwasher tablets from DTD ended a while ago sadly - either I didn't get nearly enough or we became aware of the DTD right at the very end, just before they pulled it. I was not happy at that and kept away from T for over two years, so they lost all my money I would have given them in that period:cool:. That said, maybe they didn't want me anyway as I would only have bought their loss-leading items:rotfl:.

    Evening folks :)

    Thank you :A to those who have given me support recently about my job, just when I needed it the most :(

    I have taken steps to resolve the situation and my misery.

    I handed in my notice :eek:

    I have 29 more miserable working days to go. I have to look after myself because no one else is going to! I have some temp work lined up already to start after the new year and for pretty much the same money as I'm on now :)

    Sorry you have had to hand in your notice queen of cheap but something better will be waiting for you :A

    Hope the 29 days go fast and don't drag.
