    Book People you get 5% back via quidco.com too :D I've had some nice things from there before aswell

    One ebay item finished, just under £10, easy to post item so was ok about listing it.

    AnW'sMum thanks for the reminder, I was supposed to look into how much the royalmail redirection is today, unfortunately as we have different surnames (not married) we'll have to pay double, will see how much it is in a mo. I have a massive list of contacts for informing which I am working through doing a few each day, but after when we moved many years ago and the new tenants ordered things from MY catalogue on MY account (luckily my Mam was delivering for them so never got the stuff) I will be being more careful.

    sexymouse pleased to hear you got it sorted.

    Had a wonderful soak in the bath but have no started getting that 'tingling' in my lip which I know is a cold sore starting :( anyone know any remedies I might have in ? All out of Zovirax. I always get them when stressed so me dashing around like a headless chicken today possibly set it off. Oh joy signing contracts etc tomorrow and I have a pleb on my lip which will probably be huge by the morning.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    I'm with you AnW, didn't want to admit to working in a bank when pigpen was angry!! I must admit though I do think a lot of the people at the call centres don't know what they are talking about! ( hope you don't work in a call centre!)
    DON'T swear at me like that! No I don't work in a call centre ;) and yes I agree with you they have no flippin idea what they are talking about. Dare I ask which bank you work at?

    AnW'smum.. if you work for the ShAbbey.. I MAY have to permanently exclude you!! It was only that bank I had an issue with on that particular day.. I swear they drug half the staff to make them appear dim.. I also bank at tsb AND alliance and leicester and they seem MENSA material by ShAbbey standards!!!


    Wooohoooooooooo I must be a member of MENSA coz Pigpen said so :p

    Ouch, I hate the critters, just getting rid of one on my lip now :( stress/tiredness induced here as well. Can remember feeling loads literally erupting on my lips when I was told about DH last year, nice NOT.

    My MIL reckons aftershave (or the alcohol in it) should help dry it out. Obviously be careful not to drink the aftershave!

    Mmmm now I look daft gabbing away to myself!!!!!!!!!!!!! Think I had better go to bed, hope all goes well tomorrow lil_me, really excited for you all :D

    Thanks, I don't think there will be any problems now, just the contract to sign and we're all done :) , well apart from the moving/packing. Might try aftershave, sure DP has some stuff an old relative bought him which he hates somewhere.
