    I was very impressed with your up cycling - have you used all of your pallet wood up now? Def you could sell these on your local FB group if you have one or via streetlife :)

    I have not managed to use a U&G....cannot believe it!




    Does it.... in my mind it is a different country...:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:



    Flip.... I am list-less. Note to self.... must do better.

    I will put my lists up in a bit so you can just copy mine - most of my lists are just versions of everyone elses anyways :)

    I think Birmingham is far enough south. The only places worthy of interest beyond that point are Southampton where ships set off from and St Albans.
    I make a few valiant attempts every year at London but its all a bit OTT :) LOL

    Thanks for posting this, just loaded it to my card.
    Last year I think there was an offer "spend £50 and get £25 back at argos"
    I got gift cards last time so may try that again.

    :beer:

    was it last year or the year before ...?
    I seem to remember buying Marks gift cards £50 worth for the Amex deal

    Is there any profit on gift cards with only 10% back from Amex?
    I think....

    COAST & COUNTRY 4 PERSON PICNIC HAMPER @ the hut £28.00
    http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/coast-country-4-person-picnic-hamper-hut-2559534

    Eldest son came by, hounded out of the flat as his GF and her 3 friends who are staying over so he came up to see his mates and to go to the indoor climbing wall - needless to say if we had known we would have warned him about our fog bank - nought worse than our bit of the M6 especially in the fog.
    So he came back to collect his parcel and to borrow a suitcase - we really ought to be charging weekly rental rates.
    Gf has mentioned several times her obsession with a picnic basket so I showed eldest son this one as above in passing.
    He asked for the link and It is being delivered here so I will be on parcel waiting in duty next week
    I really am my own worst enemy - that is 2 good Christmas gift ideas I have given him rather than keeping them for myself :rotfl:

    He has given me a little list of household things they need for the flat, mostly extras they need for when the weekend visitors arrive - a regular occurrence. Most of the list Ive already got new pillow sets, new towels and new crockery set, new pasta bowl sets I can wrap, just need to think about new drinking glass set.
    So thats a joint flat present.

    I am no further on than I was with Christmas wish lists.
    Gf has got 2 things on her list and eldest son nothing at all.
    And its his birthday on 17th so I really need to come up with something significant :(

    Glad it was just not me having issues with the APG machine this afternoon, a bit of a struggle but eventually I got my APgs printed off.

    Now its COS - this must be the 6th retry Ive done, got to 90% but it dropped to 75% before failing again so another retry.
    Its a receipt with numerous cashback items on so it just has to go through, too many items to return and rebuy.

    It could just be OHs samsung that is playing up though ...
