    Yes he was good. :j



    Yes he is 16, turns 17 in Jan, if he lasts that long :mad:

    I have been told that he will grow out of it, god knows when he just seems to be getting worse.

    I really cannot tell you what he has done this weekend, to really top it off.

    I really dont think I could cope if he gets any worse :(

    You will cope, we all do. x

    I'm in a dilemma now just read that the fairy deal ends soon, probably tomorrow/Wednesday.
    Do I do the following shop?

    14 fairy £98
    2 comfort £6
    5 u&g £5

    Total £109 plus newspaper & magazine

    Less £11
    Less 20%
    Less £3.95 overage
    Less £5 u&g voucher

    Total to pay £24.25 I think

    Plus a friend has offered me £3 each for 6 fairy so just over £6 for the the remainder of the shopping.
    wow how did you get the shop down to that ?im prob being thick ,tia xx[/QUOTE]


    Sorry for late reply, fell to sleep then been watching Robbie.

    Not sure if anyone has answered but, the till see full price before any discounts.
    Fairy are £7 each or 2 4 £8 and on pyo
    So 14 = £98 less 20% less multi = £36.40
    Comfort £3 each or 2 4 £4 and on pyo
    So 2 = £6 less 20% less multi = £2.80
    Up & go £1 each voucher scans at £1.79
    £11 voucher off £110 spend

    So £36.40 + £2.80 + £5 = £44.20
    Less £11 £33.20
    Less £8.95 leaving £24.25 to pay

    Hope this isn't to confusing, or someone can explain easier.

    We recognised the avatar anyway ;)

    I'm off home tomorrow. Was only staying for a week but that has become 12 days. I overstretched carry a bag up the stairs when visiting the lads and pulled muscle/tweaked nerve in my side so been resting that, but should be OK for driving tomorrow. Early start for me, up at 7.30 am :eek: as going to lads on way well it's not on my way, it's further away from home, but you know what I mean :o as I got a few things at Asda for them today. Then got to drive to Tiptree in Essex to pick up some donations from a doggie friend (bedding and dog food for Romania), then off home

    Then I might be driving up to Rochdale with these donations and what I have gathered at home myself, to the depot of the lovely lady who sends wagons of aid across to Romania for the dogs/cats and rescuers. I am however hoping that she can arrange for one of her drivers to pick the donations up from my home, which would save me a 350 mile round trip

    Off to bed now, so night night all :wave:

    Some coke bottles have a FareShare logo on them. You take a photo of the logo and upload it and for every photo they will donate a meal to someone in need. One photo per person per day, runs until 31 December. Mine is on a 1.25L bottle of diet coke which I got in A. The regular version in the same size also had the logo on.
    Full details at cocacola.co.uk/donate :)
    Thanks :beer:

    I did but I played safe and ordered 8 meal deals for £120 pyo on chickens and veg and paid £78.80 :j

    We had one of the small chickens on Sunday. Just perfect for lunch for 3. Plus Oz got a dish of squirrel out of it:)

    It has a lovely taste. Soft melt in your mouth. Not stringy like some chicken you buy:o[/QUOTE]
    :eek: Uurrrgggg! Thats foul! ;)

    Good evening:D
    Don't mean to interrupt but...
    Can I ask, is he your oldest? I think if I recall from what you have written in the past he is 16?
    My DS1 is 15 today (sometimes I actually wonder how he has made it that far:eek::eek:) Sometimes I can actually really want to punch him in the face:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    I have nothing to add, I was just hoping that I haven't got too much longer of his jekyll and hyde attitude. I often look for your posts that tell me it is true, they do grow out of it..... Please tell me it is true:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Sadly you have a very long way to go. My eldest son is the wrong side of 25, in theory the army and years of serving abroad have been the making of him but he is still a work in progress. I have handed the reigns over to GF to continue the good work but she has a hard job ahead of her ...

    They do grow out of it. DS2 is 22 and quite pleasant to have around. I think having a long term GF helps enormously. He has been looking for his first proper job for the last 2 months, so I expected him to be grumpy, but he is taking it all in his stride.

    DS1 is 26, no partner to tame him, but he is growing up. Now he doesn't live at home I appreciate the time he does spend with us.
