    Evening all
    Arthien congratulations on getting a new job and lovely that you will have a bit of time after Xmas before starting.

    I have been on a big adventure today. I took dgd age 4 to see Disney Aladdin.
    What can I say but WOW. Bless her each time it was time to applause dgd turned to me with the biggest grin on her face. I know schools are not all broken up but there was very few children there. She absolutely adored it all.
    Took her photo with the lamp outside the theatre and she still didn't have a clue where we were going:)

    Genie really rocked and we saw an understudy play aladdin but he was amazing.

    Fantastic afternoon out. Then met dd at kings cross for dinner and formal handing over of small person.

    Came home to my muscle foods xmas hamper and have sent the turkey off to mums to stay in its cool box in her outhouse.

    Lovely few days.

    You've been having a great time with dgd.....sounds like she's keeping you busy. It's fabulous the perspective little ones have on life. They certainly keep you grounded ....and young at heart:T:T

    This is interesting, but does anyone know how you obtain rewards... are these Avios?

    TIA

    On my card, I need to have spent a min of £3000 to be able to access my points, ...so no points to spend for me.

    Are you sure?

    I have a new gold card, and have a few points.

    I need to get a book for DS2 which I have been putting off as it is over £50..... but I do want to keep my avios!.... confusing!
