    Morning all

    Best wishes to Di for this afternoon xxx

    Told mum to cancel the British Gas homecare thing she has as they still not answering phones! My dad is disabled and housebound.

    Any recommendations for alternative boiler care would be welcome as I don't have any knowledge (I have a great plumber so don't need this! sadly 250 miles away from mum!)

    I had a problem a couple of weeks back and house insurance sent someone out with no excess. After my mum being without heating for 3 weeks over Xmas (stupid ground heat pump thing and electric boiler and no normal plumber would touch it) I was very impressed. I didn't add boiler cover as extra it was all included.

    I am not quite understanding what is going on with the wine - probably me being dim ...
    Will it still be working in A tommorow or is that a 'how long is a piece of string' question? And if so is it a A v MrT shop?
    I think I have vouchers left to use up - I had an excess as a result of the beans shops but I've used most of them up for muggle shops the last 2 weekends.

    All I've got left to do tommorow is to spend a pound in a Sainsbobs local (200 nectar points) but its close to a very small Sada where I could try a wine shop.

    Also no idea what to get in Waitrose - nothing of interest on cashback and no MOCs ... I got the pototo gratins for shopimum last weekend and they were the perfect thing - £2 each.

    This is my favourite champagne Lango but I would never dare use an APG for that amount:o

    Today looks worse than yesterday weather wise. The skies look heavy and I think the roads will be icy. I hope the gritters have been out.

    Champagne ? I thought you girls from the North East were more Lambrini girls :D:rotfl:
