    I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. :)

    Love it.

    I could quite look forward to that. Up to now all I have been getting in return is a two word text.

    Time to communicate my new expectations, I think. :D


    I can see a handbook emerging from all this over the course of the next 12 months.

    The Elite Approach to Adult Children.

    2 word texts - you are very lucky.

    but my gang still love me this week so Christmas and New Year must have been satisfactory - eldest child rang us for a resume yesterday and then shared a funny vid on FB this morning. We had a message from eldest son and his GF sent us a pic of him on a freezing cold beach dressed as Nanook of the North but minus the fish spear, Errant son put a thank you message and a pic on FB of his and hers Christmas gifts and he liked the photo i put on FB of ducks on a frozen lake ...
    They all go back to work tommorow so I suppose it will all go quiet again for a few weeks ...

    Evening peeps.

    Can I ask the ipinters what do I do with my mega win of a free pint.
    Can I redeem at any pub, do they give you a code and do I click redeem now or wait until I'm in the boozer? Tia.

    and dont forget if you find a receipt where someone has not used their sparks card then you can get points added on at CS
    And the receipts are good for shopprise and receipt pig :)

    I've got loads of M&S receipts but no sparks card.:oWhat are the benefits.

    I am still uploading to bigdl so use these for that.Also there are Matalan.Next.Argos and Brantano as well as M&S so I have managed to upload enough for 700 points since 1/12/16.
    My receipt hog and bigdl are having a competition to see who can get to £10 first:rotfl::rotfl:

    Has anyone had any luck with the cashback from CS for Bisto, paxo & apple sauce? I emailed them mid December and still nothing! :(

    They have likely been on holiday since pretty much that offer was on. They don't seem to process CS as quickly as CoS and have been closed from 23/12 until tomorrow so nothing will have happened in that time to investigate. Mine were processed on 22/12 - they don't appear in transactions bu are listed on the payments screen.

    I would give them until the end of this week then chase again.
