Thanks for this, I have my SIL coming but think my DIL who is a manager at a nearby hospital would be better as she knows all the relevant legislation/ laws.....I shall see what I can do as the SIL is lovely but not a professional x

I didn;t mean an actual 'professional' - just somebody who looks the part ie suited and booted. I can't see why you can't have two people with you especially if they have more than one person. Take a deep breath and pause before you answer anything, do not let them rush you and you will be absolutely fine.

Just had a fab idea, I'll buy a baby bath and use that as the outer for my hamper.
I think I'll go and make a nappy cake. If its any good I'll post a pic.
If no picture arrives......You know the outcome:rotfl:

Hello all,

I'm going to a T extra which is quite a long drive from my house, in quest for Hipp, U&G, Ocean Spray and 3 for 2 toys (possibly using £5 off Lego £30 spend voucher).

Is there anything I should add to my shopping list?
Also any tips on using multiple vouchers in one transaction please.:o

Thanks

Does it matter what sort of post office you use for the AMEX thing. There is a post office in the T's that I plan to go to, so would save an extra journey if I could use that one.

Can anyone suggest where to don ate excess Christmas cards.

I've got a random shoe box full of them, some need matching up with the right sized envelopes but I cant quite bring myself to just put them into the cardboard bin if I can find a use for them

Possibly once I can get some sort of order into them I might put a message up on the local streetlife group ...

If you were local to me I'd take them off your hands as we organise Christmas cards for prisoners of conscience in the church and cards are donated for this. So perhaps see if there is a local Amnesty International group who may be glad to have them? Or a Christmas fair?

If you have a look on your account as you activate the offer it gives you a list of post offices - fortunately mine was on the list (but it also had 2 closed post offices )

Just checked my account, my £5 rebate still not showing and no reply to my message either yet .... very worried now

This is supposed to be an informal meeting to arrange a plan for when I return to work, I just dont trust them.
Union said they would provide someone if they mentioned anything on this visit but think that they will wait until I return and if they know in advance that they were the cause they have to tread carefully...its really diffiiclut as telling them make them react in either way but its my duty (apparantly)....scary stuff

Be careful about an informal meeting and think about having someone with you anyway. I got stung badly some years ago with someone (who has now left) complaining about me. She was incited to do so by another person (who has also left!) who was bullying me though I'd not named it at the time. I agreed to an informal conversation and ended up being pilloried in a way which would not have happened if we had used the proper procedure.

(This tale has a happy ending since after many months of the bullying a friend encouraged me to draw up a diary. A lot of it had been by email so easy to collate. The diary helped me to realise that I was not just being over sensitive and I went to my boss. The bully had geninely not realised the effect she had been having and a simple conversation with her by my boss sorted it.)
