    True :rotfl::rotfl:

    Quite funny though, my DS along with his fianc!e and their kids AKA the grandkids finally went to see the in-laws this weekend, my granddaughter farted while they were there and loudly proclaimed that it was not her (she is nearly 3), no need to ask what her father said when he did the same :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Evening all

    Have finally caught up after a spot of skipping.

    Happy Birthday DM

    Visit from N earlier today then she was off to get SIPP advice. Mentioned it to Mum and she thinks getting me a SIPP is a really good idea (great way to syphon off the £3000 a year they can 'gift' me which eventually means less inheritance tax to pay) Yes all a bit confusing to me but makes sense to her. Also if I have a SIPP aren't the funds free from inheritance tax from my estate?
    Property puts you so close to the limit when you are unmarried.

    Busy day doing washing after my very busy week but all slows down tomorrow as going in to have my other foot done so will be sat here for next 4-6 weeks. Think freezer is stocked with easy to cook on one foot basics and have enough flavoured water to sink a battle ship so mum doesn't have to worry about supplies.

    Must get my esta done tonight ready for florida end of may. DD keeps reminding me but I keep forgetting.

    V x
    Hope all goes well tomorrow, had a smile about one foot meals!

    Spooky though as I have just come off the phone from DS 'REMINDING' him to do the eastas for our family trip to Boston at the end of May

    Me again, I'm now thinking it would have been better to have stayed at work rather than taking redundancy and early retirement!

    DH, who doesn't know his debit from his credit card, having discovered Amazon, is now ordering like a man who has won the lottery, dear young neighbour needs to speak to me every hour about what is and what isn't (which is usually the case) happening, ex member of staff also needs to keep me updated about the new firm she is with, things I cleaned last week now need cleaning agin and the highlight of my day has been putting 'Fablon' on the shelf in the cupboard under the stairs!!!

    SSM - do you need a hand with your reports??

    Sorry if already reported.

    3 for £10 sels have appeared in A on Easter eggs today.

    Time to check for any missing to trigger while T offer is on.

    Crunchie and Celebrations are on rollback to £2.50 so may be worth watching those
    as they may move into the offer at some point.

    So am I, at least my grandson may have a memory of his great-grand parents, I have a memory of mine from about that age.

    Unfortunately FiL has now decided he cant be bothered to feed himself, my BiL has to stand there and feed him :mad: I know he is very ill and 84, but he was fiercely independent before this, now as awful as it may seem, he appears to think everyone should run around after him.

    My customer that passed away last year was like that, gave up with everything, but his was depression that was making him like that:( but he had just had enough not being well and being a carer:o
