Northern geezer hope you too are ok and reading even if you only post now and then The ops had me laughing with their word games the other evening.

I am having an early night as still really tired after this bug/flu

Savvybuyer

Just been to T to look for the kitchen towels and another item, and I found grrrrrr... :mad:a pack of 12 Cadbury's Creme Eggs that someone left by the kitchen towels:mad:. I didn't try them to see if they worked on TBG - I suspect not - as I didn't want to buy 10 items but you know they would have worked folks now that I've not tried them:rotfl:.

Kitchen towel in my store scanned at the regular £1 (they 'never' have the wanted items in my stores) so I didn't bother with it - I've obviously got the 'new' version rather than the discontinued one:(.

I am convince there is something wrong with my store

50p would be even better :beer:, I'll have a look in mine but like yours, mine doesn't seem to have much at the moment

just re read my email and it is Monks Cross closing - now I am confused. The one we went to was at Vanguard opposite John Lewis so which one is this?

I believe that's Monks Cross mhoc. The other one is over at Fulford MacArthur Glen outlet.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BIRTHDAY TWIN SNAP ANT:j:j:j

Apologies for my absence.

Not caught up but the lovely N says you wonderful bunch have been leaving birthday wishes for which I want to thank you all:)

N took me out today. We did lunch then Hidden Figures at the cinema which I really enjoyed. My mum did the same type of work but for the aerospace industry. Not 100% sure the film was correct on the date of the installation of the IBM system but it made for a great film.
We finished the day with a spin round a large Mr S I have never visited.

DS2 and GF are paying me a flying overnight visit tomorrow so celebrations will last a few more days.

Wednesday saw me arrive at the Grand Hotel in Brighton with a friend where we checked in and had a fab inexpensive meal in their fish restaurant.
Glammed up to the eyeballs we the went to see Post Modern Jukebox at the Dome. Fantastic concert as always and we had great seats. Not keen on the bar set up though bit like a student uni.
Lovely night cap and I felt fine. Couldn't really get to sleep, not something I could put my finger on just slight niggle in left side of tummy. By 3 am I was going hot and cold with back pain. 7 am I was laying on bathroom floor (fab room) so as not to disturb my friend. Got found out as was whimpering in pain. Ambulance arrived, morphine given and taken to hospital. Still in pain, so more morphine. Explained yes I look great for my age but definately not pregnant.
Very thirsty so drank loads. Ecg ect done. Filled the bottle in the little girls room and had ct scan. Was high as a kite and some internal pain relief given. Floated on my cloud for quite a while then explained the pain had gone.
Up shot was they are pretty sure I passed a kidney stone. My god never known anything like it. Child birth is a doddle in comparison.
Can only think it had been brewing a while and sitting awkwardly in theatre it got trapped.
Good news is we got back to my friends early afternoon and after a good sleep I drove home. Nothing showing on ct scan so don't expect to be going through that again any time soon.

Ok long post but really funny. I got a text from Brighton hospital today thanking me for choosing them and asking me to recommend them to my family and friends:eek::eek::eek:

Right off to ready back from Wednesday morning whilst watching Kill Bill so might be a while.

Thank you again for all your birthday wishes.

I have reached my limit for this month and have another CC for later.
Looking at the screen on your account were you can see your last three orders it states "please note orders will only be available for comparison for 28 days from delivery date"

Not sure if this helps but thinking of cancelling my order as this 28 day rule will not reach April.

Thanks for this and to all the other posts about it. I'll wait a bit before doing another order!
