    Glad you have found the leak but :mad: to Mr TS:rotfl:

    Thing is he hates a tightly packed wardrobe and gets pretty :mad: when the hangers get tangled up so it's best it's a no go area for him, I usually get his trousers out before he needs them and leave them on the door handle.

    I've probably got 3/4 of the wardrobe for my stuff, I did have a good sort out last year. There are a few bits in DD3's wardrobe as she actually has a triple one from when 2 of the girls shared a room. I really need a whole wardrobe to myself. :o

    We could actually fit 2 wardrobes or a bigger one in our room but not worth getting one until the room is decorated though, moving all this furniture about has made me want to get started on it but will have to wait until end of month when DD2 is back to uni, then I can fill her room and not cause her any disruption with house being upside down again while she is finishing this years work....

    Yes, Nanny, lights on here too. Still hoping for some good sunshine again as we head into August, but I notice that this evening there is just the teeniest hint of autumn in the air - just that little undercurrent of chill that arrives at the tail end of the day. Hmm. Hope we have some summer left.

    When I lived in Shropshire some rural folk used to refer to the Flower Show as 'summer's end' because after that the days grew noticeably shorter. 10 days to go, then! Best make the most of it, somehow!

    For me, autumn always starts early Aug - sunrise is getting later to the point where I notice and when you are out early enough you catch a nip of cold in the air. Leaves are starting to turn, lacking their youthful green, crops in the field are being harvested. Similarly, you notice it getting darker earlier. I love autumn :)

    Should add I love summer and spring too. Winter is a bit on non starter down here, less brutal, so love that too.:cool:
    Something unexpected happened which made me smile and still continues to make me smile.

    Can someone advise on purchase which is not correct product

    We bought flooring about 15 months ago and decided to extend it into kitchen We went back to the supplier with a sample and he ordered it for us He said it was the same

    He has supplied a totally different colour(know it would vary but it not even similar and not the same thickness as the sample He refuses a refund or any other recompense

    Any advice TIA
    Mrsmac....sounds like you definitely have a case under the consumer rights act....have a look at The short term right to reject, under remedy for breach....as this is definitely breach of contact.
    Lots of info here https://www.businesscompanion.info/en/quick-guides/goods/the-sale-and-supply-of-goods

    Once again Nectar fail to add on all my points after Saturday's meat shop:o.

    And live chat is down ......

    And another thing:o:rotfl:

    Anyone tried to open a £200 monthly saver with Santander....the one earning 5%....thanks frequent......you can't open the account online.... You either have to go into branch or ring them. :o

    I was on nearly 40 minutes just to get through.

    I kept wanting to put the phone down but you feel that you've invested so much time in waiting that you just gave to keep hanging on:rotfl:

    What with my all inclusive holiday abroad and then street food at the festival....

    And then the farmers daughter has opened a tea shop and sells her homemade cakes. One day last week I bought 2 and ate them both the same day. :eek:

    looking to place an online T order to buy booze for a forthcoming party, anyone know if there's any cashback with T grocery? I've checked TCB and Q both have A and M but no Tosco? :(
    There's cashback for T wine by the case but I'm looking for a selection to suit all taste so not just wine :cool:

    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.
