That's the sort of thing that happens to me, the cinnamon stick or the bay leaf or the whole cardamom :eek: Oh and mine will be the only piece of fish with bones in. :rotfl:

Glad her first day went well, will she be going back tomorrow.

Lol, It always happens to our DS, he's 41 now, called Joe, but from being about 3 you could guarantee that his 'boneless' fillet of fish would have a bone in it, if we ever get one now we still say Oh b@gger, I've got Joe's fish!

Thanks Bubbs for fizz deal.

We've had an anniversary Chinese take away - last time we had one here Dad was sick sick sick & more sick all through the night As soon as Mum & I had gone back up to our beds, closed our eyes, his bell would ring ....
So hopefully this will not be repeated as we went to a different one.
My DS is cooking spinach, that I de stalked for her, she is making spinach & ricotta lasagne for the vegetarians option.

Turkey cooked, smells delicious.

Dad tucked up in bed with his iPad & Great British Bake Off. So peace at last :rotfl:
Wheel chair man fine tuned his new wheel chair so no more taking corners off doors, & dragging tablecloth & table ware off when he leaves the table. The arms rested on table & Dad would reverse out with cloth attached :eek::eek:
He is so much stronger, his 'dead' arm is gaining in movement, but muscles need building up. Walking on his zimmer 4 times a day. All adds up.
Plus he can now browse internet, a huge mental step, he found the Berlingo :T:T
What a ffaff trying to insure it today. As it has had a ramp fitted. Prudential quoted £1100 :eek::eek:
Used Quidco quote & got it down to £373 :T

Is your dad not entitled to higher rate mobility allowance and therefore a motability vehicle?

TM please help the ladies with their workings out.

Never been sure of how to work the 10% out. I see it as a bonus.
If 10% of difference that adds 26p making £2.86 total. If it is 10% of products bought then that would be an apg of £2.60 plus 10% of the £9.60 spent which would add 96 p to £2.60 making total apg £3.56.

Like to know how to work this out please.

A's say they should be 10% cheaper than other s markets
-so if A's price = £1 and t's price=90p
-10% cheaper would be , 10% of 90p=9p= 81p
-A's price £1-81p = apg of 19p

morning all! someone asked yesterday if I had got my painting done, re - the dulux challenge. YES I did! Everything in dining room was moved back and forth and only went back once cleaned and if not required shed or bin.....2 bin bags later!! found a few bottles of coke from 2014 which I still tried but alas they were very flat! Photos were taken once done and uploaded to dulux, I got an email at 6:30 Tuesday morning to say receipt unclear, so I rescanned it and took a few pics on the camera as it wasn't the clearest of receipts and am happy to say that before lunch I had an email back to say prepaid card on way Woohoo and bonus is room still tidy!
