    Cant find this in my emails or if I go to the website. Have you got a link please. Or maybe it wont show for those that had a similar offer a few weeks ago :eek:

    I can’t do a direct link as it seems to go to my account but I have found this on hukd

    several small worries this morning
    - firstly Eldest child - this has been her first Christmas with her in-laws - I think she has only missed one other Christmas when she was working but otherwise she has always been at home.
    On the plus side this year though they have seen all of their friends over Christmas and also each other so hopefully that outweighed any longing for a Christmas at home.
    On the minus side the in-laws do a very traditional Christmas with a set routine - you could plot their movements from year to year. This includes 6 hours of football on TV on boxing day :mad:

    I also don't think she has been home this year at all :eek: - between the wedding, the house move, working part weeks away on works trips and various holidays I don't think she has slotted us in. I am slightly worried now about things that have changed in the house, what things she will notice and what things she will completely miss seeing and at what point she will realise how long it has been ...

    My other worry is OH tomorrow. He went into work today which suited me as it meant I could crack on and get most jobs done before 9.30. Tomorrow though he is supposed to be breakfast chef and Christmas dinner chef.
    If he stubbornly thinks the wheels of industry will grind to a halt without him and he insists on going into work as normal and not strolling home until 3 or 4 in the afternoon then its going to be a major problem.
    I cant even cope with doing breakfast - usually its bacon baps when we have guests over but the smell of cooking bacon makes me feel queasy now so it might have to be pancakes or such like :)

    We had our phones ready with the app open for 10am - Mrs Anon and I got the Am4zon :cool:.

    Others in our house got JL :)

    If you missed out today, tomorrow has Arg0s, T and others. If you have the app open it does count down until the Use Now button appears. Obviously the server is very busy so keep trying - very limited stocks, Am went out of stock and we switched to JL which still had stock at the time.

    I think it is hormone related but not pregnancy - just old age and decrepitude. But if I start giving neros a wide berth so I avoid the smell of coffee then you will really have something to worry about :rotfl:

    Fingers crossed that Eldest child will be happy to be here - another worry now as I think they had snow at home and they were worried about their boiler ...
