Ok, so logged into my nectar account and it seems the 10k of points was awarded for 9 transactions which have been grouped together, as aau1 has already said, total outlay was £16.14.

£100. Well done!!
I couldn't participate as my lappy wouldn't allow pop ups from nectar! Kept getting blank screen. :mad:

LEJC.
There is always a duty social worker available 24hrs if you are thinking about phoning your council.
I think I would if I wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
Anything could happen to her.......

I have always found the police easy to get to respond, and support someone in this situation as there is normally a fair few police officers, and only one SW on duty out of hours. The police are often better placed to persuade/encourage someone to access a hostel.

LEJC- I don't know what part of the country you/family live but what about luxury steam train with dinner/afternoon tea.
I came across this one but im sure there will be many more if you google

Thank you, when I converted the double up in my head when I logged into the app I let out a little scream and woke DH up who was napping on the bed . That's a shame re your laptop, did you try allowing pop ups for a bit?

Just checked my Nectar, 13,000 points awarded...for £40 spend.... I've definitely not spent £40 in one transaction.... I need to figure out how many orders and what I sent (I have list.... just need to add it up!)

Good morning all...

A little link for HG ....
http://www.orlandofarmersmarket.com/

We can usually spend a couple of hours here and then have a walk round the lake...it does tend to be not quite so busy if the weather is a little cooler but there are usually a good mix of stalls to have a browse and a few lovely food vans.

Have you ever ventured up to Winter park....beautiful place and a real insight into how the other half live. When we go at christmas we always take a drive round some of the exclusive houses to see the decorations...out of this world!
Sunrail now stop at the rail station so if you dont fancy the drive it is really quick and easy

In fact thats how we spend a sunday in florida...mooching round the farmers market,a walk round the lake and feed the swans and then an afternoon of pure pamper shopping in winter park....and there's a couple of old guys who do a rather good boat trip around the waters of winter park...good for people and house envy!!!!

have a good day all...not sure yet what I have planned other than a trip to the post office.

Thank you for the link, it's definitely on the agenda now. In fact you've just sorted out how we'll be spending our Sunday lol. We've been to Winter Park once before, three or four years ago, but didn't do the boat trip so that's something else for the list. We spent quite a long time wandering round the Rollins College campus which was lovely. DH also enjoyed watching the trains go through, amazing how long they are. The Tiffany museum was good too. I'd forgotten what a lovely day we had in Winter Park, thank you for the reminder
