    Good Afternoon :wave:

    Didn't have time to visit this morning :(

    Phone call from work could I get there for 9am woman ill and wouldn't be in. So I started rushing then Poppy walkies etc just got in work with 5 mins to spare phew.

    DS wasn't happy NHS again.

    Gets to hospital to have his mole removed.
    Gets told he shouldn't have got an appointment there was nothing to worry about :mad: and they will send him a letter in 3 to 4 months to go again,

    He wasn't happy had got day off work , paid £12 for taxi to get there on time .

    Decided to walk home said it would take him hour and half he couldn't afford another £12. Couldn't get train it was the line that's shut due to wall collapsing.

    On his way he saw a dead body :eek:. Police were cordoning off a bit of grassland and covering the body with a black sheet. On his way back said it was swarming with police . He had looked on internet and said it was a man and being treated as suspicious.

    Thats terrible with appointment, poor ds:(
    Hope he is ok after seeing the body?:o not nice

    Fourp get well soon :D

    I can't help with the post but I've bought my last 2 phones from smartfonestore. ive been really pleased with them.

    I had a few from them but the last few have been Japanese handsets (mute doesn't work on camera).. I sent them back, so that put me off them a bit. That's why I went for the eBay one.

    Its very scary - my OH is the same, not very financially astute - partly its laziness because I've always been the financial adviser and its all too much effort for him. He really has no interest in it and I think he likes to play the down trodden OH - whilst still enjoying the benefits that come with being married to someone that manages everything.

    He has difficulty telling the difference between a credit card and a debit card - even though it quite clearly says which is which on them. It was only really in the last few years that he has had a credit card and only after I was fully satisfied that he understood the difference. If he has to go anywhere and pay for things I have to say use the credit card

    The credit card is paid in full at the end of the month. The debit card is for withdrawing cash but he has to tell me so I can make sure its been topped up - it earns interest up to a certain balance.

    One day a few years ago he got cash out of the cash machine and said he had difficulties with his pin - turned out it was the credit card he had used instead of the debit card. So I had to ring the CC people up and ask, well begged them really, for them to reverse the charges and I then put the money back onto the card - otherwise a £30 charge :mad:
    They reversed the charges fortunately but I had to ring again because it also incurred further charges the following month

    He now has a TSB contactless card which we spend up to £100 a month on day to day stuff to earn the £5 reward - this is another advanced stage we are up to ..

    Thought this had finished, think it September? :eek:

    Thanks for that, I'll beware if I buy from them again.

    One that needs testing to add to sharpies may be Mitchum roll on male and female, Sada £3.00 Waities £1.83, so net £1.65 and PAG £1.35 each. As I said needs testing. Will do a test myself, but it will not be until evening. Waities price advertised until 21/3
