Morning all!

Back from the family holiday in Weymouth. Washer and dryer on full blast!

Whilst away I received some more lovely money off vouchers from Waities. To maximise these, is it simply a case of cross checking the General Waities offers against the PYO ones? Or is that too simple?

tomato, chicken on the bone (this is fab) chicken breasts, lurpak

This is what happen to me a few months ago. Had bloods taken in the morning at my request as I felt I was anaemic. Got phone call at 6pm to say I have to go to A&E as my levels were so low. Waited an hour at A&E just to check in, practically fainting in the process. Waited 3 hours to be called in to see a nurse. They took my bloods and told me to sit outside again and I thought I would be out there a while. Got called in few minutes later, rushed through to some cubicle with a bed and told I was having a blood transfusion. Wonder what would have happened if I hadn't requested the initial blood test :eek: Ended up being in hospital 3 days Hated it.
Now take 3 iron tabs a day but levels still not up to normal. Waiting for more tests to find out whats wrong and will probably end up with a hysterectomy Really hope not, as I care for OH and mum and will have to make arrangements for them.

Am also O neg blood group

Hope your transfusion has gone well and you are soon home

Don't worry about a hysterectomy, now-a-days it is much easier process... and people recover extremely quickly, one friend was doing work the next day.

But you do need to look after yourself, if you don't no one else will. I am sure you know where to sort out support for OH and mum whilst you recuperate x

Well shopitize have done it again. I dashed out when I got back from the coffee morning with half an hour left, got home and still had 10 mins , went to upload and it had disappeared again:mad: sent quite a strong email to them , so will see how I go. It's annoying when they change the rules .

Looked in my local T express yesterday, when getting my ciders but couldn't see them. Have you found them in several expresses or just your local one?

They can be annoying when they do this - if it says limited then fair enough (so long as they show when it is available/has run out) but either show the limited bar that we know they have, or stick to the time advertised.

In their defence we know there will be a finite budget behind the scenes, they just need to be clearer about availability and expiry to avoid anyone being caught out. On similar offers previously their response has been that due to unprecedented demand they had to withdraw the offer earlier than expected - 6 almost free cider per person would generate a pretty predictable response .

Definitely worth emailing.

I started being asked to resnap/report my receipt and then when I went to upload the next one it had gone but I thought it was because I hadn't successfully claimed the earlier offer and not because they'd moved the goalposts again

I wonder if they have anyone in over the weekend to deal with all the complaints they'll get. I feel for them if they do, it will be like having 100s of mhoc's on their case :rotfl:
