    Mum's are made to worry!

    DS2 has been abroad in the past, far too near war zones for my liking, but I wouldn't actually stop him going. My parents would phone every day and say they can't believe I allowed him to go. Which made the worrying 10 times worse.

    I don't think we could stop them if we tried.....:o

    :A Rhos, TM :A

    :o Must get up.

    Listed an item on eBay £1 offer last night, awoke today with doubt regarding start date of offer & I hadn't mentioned I own cats, for that odd hair that has escaped :o

    Then you go off on a tangent looking at Kiplings, discovering a divine print only in USA :(

    and now it is pelting down here :rotfl:

  • Never had the kids travel to dubious destinations, not really dubious anyway.

    OH has been to Seoul and said it was fine TM, I think they have ways of dealing with North Korea out there, mainly ignore them, but the Foreign Office really do do a lot under the surface, you will never know a lot of what they do, believe me if there was a real problem they would stop all travel there.

    Let my DS go to Spain with mates when he was 16, biggest learning curve of his life lol. He left his bag with his money and passport in it on the beach when they went for lunch :eek: Needless to say it was not there when they got back. His mates helped him out moneywise, and fortunately I had made him take a photocopy of his passport with instructions to hide it in his room, made it easier when he had to trail into Barcelona to get an emergency one.

    Can anyone please advise on Tassimo. I bought the bundle a few weeks ago but no hot chocolate and i would like to get some for DS. Where is best place to buy please ? I got 2 x £10 vouchers when i registered machine but don't know what minimum spend is with them and for that i will also need to factor in postage. Am i best off using the £10 vouchers on descaling tablets did i read ? Tia xx

    Min spend of £25 and standard postage, but if you spend £35, then postage is free.
    One thing to watch out for is most of the chocolates use 2 pods per drink (one milk, one choc) but there is one that doesnt (so effectively half the price of the others), and off the top of my head I dont know which one it is, but sure someone will)
    Edit: it is the Suchard Hot choc that only uses one pod.

    Does it look like this....

    Thank you for all your hugs and comments:A

    I think I need to stop reading the news:o

    Anyway......bright and breezy here. I know a little sheltered spot in the garden where I can do a bit of weeding.

    Hope that sparrowhawk didn't get the sparrows AJ:o

    Also please could someone advise me on lenovo tablet. I'm seeing a flash up of white bricks or similar when jumping from page to page. Something not right and just hoping it's not a virus. Any advise great full to received thanks xx

    If it is happening just within one browser, it might be the browser. Try a different one and if the problem isn't there too, uninstall and reinstall it. But if it is happening with all programmes I'm afraid I agree that you should scan the computer with a virus check. Also check that Windows is fully up to date with all updates and security patches. (Google to see how to find the update page on your operative get system.) The Lenovo website might also be helpful.

    I hope you get it sorted.
