  • Morning folks!

    Another one that changes the bed before I go on holiday - one time that did mean I was changing the bed at 2am before heading to the airport :rotfl::rotfl: Nothing better than your own bed with fresh sheets on when you get back.

    Today i'm going to cross another thing off my 40 before 40 list :D:D it was 30 before 30 but didn't quite get there :rotfl:

    Then i'm going to the hairdressers or as E puts i'm getting my hair "mowed" but don't like the connotations of mowed :p

    If you saw my hair you would understand, it is very thick and bushy :D

    Thought you were replying to underperky then, asking for a pix of the fit young male waiter :rotfl:

    MyS has it at £1.98 but on your link A says £2.40. S has some of them at £2.30 but otherwise M and T have them at £2.48 or 2 for £4. If APG has it at £2.40 each then could get 2 for £3 and apg for £1.20, but if it has them at £1.98 then no return

    I haven't looked at all the varieties

    Morning all. Hope everyone is well.

    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    Curly can be our quinoa pig:D


    :rotfl::rotfl:.....I'm leaving that one in:rotfl:


    quinoa pig reporting from the field.....

    I have applied for the BG Collective switch, thinking of doing a switch for years, spurred on this morning, thanks anon.

    I'm with BG already, standard tariff, pay quarterly by cc for a few extra points, applied this morning, took 30 minutes as I put in accurate (hopefully) details.

    Potential savings............£370 per year! :money:
    Hope everything switches smoothly.
    Not that keen on direct debits, as previously when with npower they had more money built up in my electric account than I did in my current account!

    tbc, thanks for the encouragement anon and TM.

    :)

    Today is damp :o

    Holiday tick list going down, found a couple of beakers, cotton buds, Andrews liver salts (just in case) cheapy paperbacks & a peg.
    My friends are panicky about losing their luggage so I've typed out an A5 with who we are (individually), flying with, from, date, time, hotel address, flights back. So everyone can put theirs in the front pocket of suitcase :D

    My motto is take a brolly - it won't rain ;)
