    :wave: I'm back, we've had a lovely afternoon and thankfully a lovely lunch, it's always a bit risky when you recommend somewhere but it was all good.
    I hope everyone has had a safe journey home x

    And thank you for being a top hostess again. I promptly fell asleep,when I got home :o but it was a lovely day.

    Nice to meet new people and meet up again with those I've met before.

    I know no one will believe me but mhoc looks nothing like a mad cat lady :eek: :p:D

    And a big thank you to Ellie14 for the company on our journey there and back. You, my dear are an absolute gem and a complete tonic :heart: I always leave your company smiling.

    Naebbriac :eek: ouch! What a nasty injury. I hope it heals soon and your pain isn't too bad. Love the idea of you scooting around on a computer chair though :rotfl:

    Put it this way, I'm working in West London at the moment, full of linen clad, mardy women... :wall:

    I would be sacked!

    The quote of the day in the office I was in today was:

    'I was late getting to a first date, so he was drunk when i got there, we went to Tesco to get some booze and was going back to mine, when we were looking at the booze (in T) he got his p**** out'

    I was like :eek::eek::eek: you should not be taking people back to your house on the first date...

    The most shocking part is that she went on another 2 dates with him before she realised that he was a no go.... I was crying with laughter.

    Come and work with me x

    Well done to your DD. I remember DD3 doing the same when she changed from weekend staff to weekday, working out what her first wage packet was going to be. :money:

    Well... at least this helps if it continues at N/A against M:
    1x I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Light Spread (1KG) £1.50 N/A

    Seeing that it is at what appears to be A's own best price (...which of course isn't good enough - it would be better if it were to be elsewhere and at £1.50 and then 10% off that price). N/A across the board:):cool:.

    This doesn't mean that they didn't immediately give way more to A elsewhere on their shop. They got this on the best. comp that was vs T:

    1x Ben & Jerry's Cookie Dough Ice Cream (500ML) £4.00 £4.00:rotfl:

    "Cheaper" prices are available elsewhere - in excess of £3:eek:.

    Vs T
    1x ASDA Grower's Selection Galia Melon (EACH) £1.00 £0.69

    However, Galia Melon in Aldi is 49p.

    Also, you may have seen the last comp. with a small pizza 50p A vs S returning N/A, and no good vs M anymore with M's price increase. However, a similar weight pizza at Aldi is 43p (assuming the SEL I saw in Aldi earlier today to be correct:rotfl:).

    Thank you silvercar I will gave over trying .

    Do you have any idea when they going to fix it please ?

    Usually updates are made on a Wednesday, late morning. But someone did post that King are taking a holiday for a fortnight, so it may not be this Wednesday.

    That said glitches could be fixed at any time.

    Edit: They've tweeted that they are already working to fix the glitch. Whether they will make it easier at the same time is anyone's guess. It has been suggested that they should reduce to 5 colours and/or reduce the target to 100,000.

    And so they should be. Time to recharge the batteries xx

    I am lucky to have the manor to escape to whenever I want. ;) I don't think Mr TS would entertain me having more than one holiday abroad with his thoughts on flying. :o
