    MORNING ALL X


    has any of you ordered from mygeekbox? I ordered a box nearly 2 weeks ago money went out straight away but nothing has been sent and still shows as processing - looks like a subscription of a monthly fee, but I don't want more money coming out if I haven't received anything yet. Reviews are not good by the looks of it

    I've never even heard of geek box Sarah.....sorry.

    A good deal if you have a Poundshop near you

    Thanks OP on grabbit this was the other Sainsbob bargain I had cut out of my pic. Beechams 50p

    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=71311561&postcount=812

    Beechams were always my choice but if you are on Aspirin or Clopidegerol or Warfarin beware. After my TIA I am on Clopiegerol and did not realise I couldnt take Beechams till I had a nosebleed at 1.00 am. after taking some at 10.00p.m. Shame as I always found they hit a cold on the head

    Morning all :)

    Big thunderstorm from about 4am, now pouring rain and a derailed train just up the road following a landslide :eek:
    So much for keeping a low profile in A - slipped on a dropped ice lolly yesterday and had to have the first aider called :o

    Seren....thank you for the tip about the money off vouchers being given out at the Coop. I got a £1 off when you spend £5.

    DD is making a special birthday cake so I bought 3 boxes of Cadburys fingers at £1 each and they had the Sweet Sunday's Maltesar pouches at £1 and got 2 of them.....so got them all for £4 and received another tillspit:rotfl:

    Hipps are going down extremely well with YMWNALOM:)

    Young Mams with not a lot of money:rotfl:

    It is heartbreaking, out lab come out of puppyhood last year (she was 13 years of age at the time!).... she started to refuse to run, and now often refuses to walk and needs to be carried home.... but strangely she reverts to a puppy when you open the car door as she knows she is going swimming!

    Strange how they know these things isn't it ....

    My last dog used to jump in car but if I didn't take the first left turn

    he would go in the huff and sulk as he then knew we were going to the vets.

    Though if I passed the turn off for the vets as we were going somewhere else he would immediately be bright and have eye contact ... and look at me again without the "you are taking me to the gallows look "

    Good morning folks

    Good afternoon all...



    I have been holding it together quite well until about an hour ago when my friend dropped round a card for him....we originally met at anti natal classes with our baby bumps and have been friends ever since....I thought it was a bit strange that she just popped the card through the door and didnt stop,but when DS opened it and read the lovely message(and sizable donation to the beer fund) wishing him well at uni he was quite touched and for me the tears have flowed!!!!!

    Oh heck its really happening.....
    Thinking of you today.

    Hate to tell you it's not very sunny at the moment but there's time yet, have a fabulous weekend. You could have had your wine delivered here and collected it on your way home.

    ((3dogs)) ((saversue))

    Well the day has finally arrived, this afternoon Dd and her bf are signing the tenancy agreement on their first house together.
    My stash has taken a battering but at least I've got rid of a couple of those black buckets :rotfl:
    All her stuff is packed up and ready to go along with half the contents of my cupboards. Dh said last night, we will have nothing left at this rate :rotfl:
    So a busy weekend ahead I thought we were just dropping them off there tonight but apparently we are moving all the stuff in and I'm cheif cleaner :eek: bubbs you could stop off on your way through if you like it's only ten minutes off the m6 :rotfl::rotfl:
    Right must dash have a good day everyone.
