Good afternoon eliters :wave:



Thank you Nellie :beer::D



Brilliant! Thanks nerfdad :T:T I'll make the most of it until 19th July then!! :rotfl:





Thanks TM :A Thankfully, I do :j and I quite fancy seeing the new Bourne film and Star Trek if the codes reach me in time!

Just to add - I don't know if this is what is classed as a glitch but was in T's today and bought some socks - 4 pack should've been £5 but showed as £3 on receipt. I really liked the bee pair so was even more chuffed they ended up being 2 quid cheaper! :j I checked on web just now to see if they were sale reduced and isn't showing. Could it be just a price anomaly in the store I shopped in? (I know nothing so I'm sure you guys will explain all )

these are very sweet - excellent to go in the present drawer if they do go through at £3 elsewhere :T

You made me laugh mhoc, as troublesome as it is she only wants your expertise . When ds3 bought his first house he was the same, pictures and info every day :rotfl: :rotfl: quite honestly I enjoyed it and felt so pleased he had involved us so much :cool: at least that way he got our advice and the haggler that I am haggled for the one they preferred as the chap selling told us it was his aunts home and she had left it to him

yes you are right, she is coming to us for our advice which is a good thing and she is taking our comments into consideration - thankfully not gone into a strop when I gave her a list of things to research - boilers, damp proof, roofs, parking, flood plains etc
I think this next process is going to be a stiff learning curve for all of us, so much stuff we need to learn about the house buying process

I said to her she will know its the right house because her heart will sing :rotfl:

I heard that story too - my nephew attended there, finishing about 3 years ago.


Not been to Leeds so far, as it is not on the target list.


Exam result in August will determine the next steps, and whether 2 renowned river located establishments near-ish to London are achievable

Leeds is on my wish list as well bit I am having trouble convincing OH - we have stayed on the outskirts a few times Headingly and Pudsey - the road system is desperate, once the sat nav took us through the middle - nightmare
I am thinking of going on the train though, plenty of city centre hotels eg Accor hotels on the happy Monday list - cheaper than York but we could go up to York for the day on the train and also Harrogate on the train for the day -

:eek: Deja vu - Dad's just rang - they have found his HUDL :T:T

It's been lost since the stroke, we took it into hospital for him but he couldn't cope with it, been lost ever since :o

lucky that they found it and returned :T

He is having his new wheelchairs delivered next week (promised when he left hospital in February) One motorised & one normal
:)

it seems such a wait but are they especially built to his measurements. He will have fun with a new motorised one woohoo

Mrs Physio lady has had him standing up & sitting down on his own :T:T

building up the muscles to have more freedom and more confidence that's good Snap. Fingers crossed that things carry on in the forward direction x

Thank you

I'm trying to find the best deal on a pair of Birkenstock Gizehs Mickey Mouse - £54.99 at moment [/QUOTE


Time for tea, I hear dh calling :cool:

Good night on tv tonight , Big Brother chucking another one out :T

to put everyone out of their misery the mystery parcel was a set of haircare products I won about a month ago from an internet draw I entered about 3 months ago so it was no wonder I was not expecting anything. it includes a silk cap which I am supposed to wear at night to keep my hair smooth and shiny and not looking like a bedraggled hedge - as if :rotfl:

Amazon man brought the cat food and OH was impressed that you can buy cat food from Amazon - he thinks I have a cat food obsession starting

lip product is matte which I've not tried before but it seems to be still clinging on ...

Morning all

Amazon have invented time travel I got a message at 4.30 this morning to say my parcel has been dispatched and is

Scheduled on Thu, 14 Jul 7AM - 10PM :rotfl:

The postie left a red card yesterday to say there was something that was too big for the letterbox - most of the regulars know where to leave parcels. OH has taken this in but we are just expecting a slightly fat jiffy bag.
Not actually expecting anything really
Has anyone had anything similar from Orchard/Buzz/Alba/sopost or similar yesterday?

speaking of which I am testing a lip product so I've got to cleanse tone and fully make up this morning even if its just for gardening. It also means lots of visitors this morning looking startled and saying "oh sorry I didn't know you were on your way out this morning ..." :rotfl:

see you later

Naturally, I'm always careful to check the ground beneath the hay, the last thing you want is protruding rocks causing discomfort. #top tip :rotfl::rotfl:

Happy Bday 3 dogs :beer:

Still getting my head round this waitrose loyalty scheme - can the qualifying spend for the free newspaper include the actual cost of the newspaper, and is it before any promotions are applied (eg. 20% off PYO and normal promotions like 3 for £12 nappies) - thanks in advance

Sorry but I don't know about the paper as my total bills have always come to over £10

The 20% PYO discount comes off of the items before the mb discount is applied though.

For example; nappies are £8 each and on 3for£12 so the pyo discount would be 20% off £24 (£4.80) and then that would come off of £12. So 3 lots of nappies would cost £7.20

Morning TM. My two will only eat the Felix Meaty Loaf but only later in the day. They have to have a Gourmet Perle each for breakfast to start the day, neither of them are very :money:

Maybe you would best just go out later for whoopsied squirrel

you win the contest for fussiest cat feeders

I've got the Felix now from Asda and Whiskas from Amazon and some reduced sainsbobs tins, harringtons salmon dry and so hopefully no one will starve this week or decide there is nothing they fancy eating ...

Good afternoon couldn't agree with you more AJ but so worth the discomfort to know that you are okay .I have had my last one now being 71 but can request them and will certainly be doing this as Auntielala had mastectomy 4 years ago and I will feel more at ease by continuing them

Good afternoon all
I agree too, breast screening is no fun, but not as painful since I lost weight
I have often thought that if men had testicle screening they would have found another way.......... slapping the relevant bits between 2 metal plates seems so barbaric to me!! x
