    Beautiful day - perfect for washing bedding covered in cat sick :o:o

    I got involved with the Clematis out front yesterday, supposedly bagging up previous trimmings... ended up 4 hours later with a small mountain of dead branches & broken secateurs :o

    But the front steps are swept :D

    shopmum - free chicken sausages as well as the granola asda

    I've still got the free Richmond pasta meatballs on COS as well so that's 3 wild goose chases I need to do in Asda :D
    Mind you that's reminded me of an Asda I've not been to recently ...:D

    I feel your pain. Treacle has taken to sleeping on the towel rack in the bathroom with resulting consequences ...

    ive noticed 1000 points on nectar for exploring uk on VIRGIN TRAINS :)

    thanks for this, its new, wasn't there yesterday.

    It says

    3.Make a booking on either West Coast or East Coast services for travel up to and including 17 July 2018

    As it takes a month for the points to be added does the Elite think its worth risking sending our feral virtual children on their usual adventure via East Coast but ASAP?
    Or would V west coast be a safer option.
    I am worried about VEC falling off the nectar list altogether ..

    I've also got other offers for 500 points - too much to hope that I would get both.

    Also on Nectar both cards have 200 points for a shop local - it would be good if there was something on COS for free or nearly free.

    Also mine has 250 points for petrol

    And its 10 x points weekend over 26th to the 28th weekend.

    OHs points were used up yesterday on a lawnmower - the old petrol one has been on its last legs since the end of last year and we have dithered about it over and over - hoping for the right B&Q offer or the right Argos offer but I wanted to bring down the points total so it seemed an obvious thing sot use them for.

    (Yes my OH is spoilt rotten - he does not know yet I have also treated him to printer ink and a new garden spade yesterday :rotfl: )

    Be interested to see how you get on with it.

    A friend's son has one and he sends his mother out driving the car in day time at 20mph. Claims it brings his insurance down due to the proportion of safe driving in day time and at low speeds.

    Recently found that son's score is marked down if more than 6 journeys are done in 24hrs :eek:
    So no use if I nip to T, then S and then on to B&M etc as I'd soon do more than 6 some mornings. :mad:
    Any excuse for them to knock his score down to reduced his good driving reward payment.

    Morning ish peeps.

    We have a "family car" so this one hardly gets used, but have put DS on as named driver on renewal. He only passed his test last year, and by having it installed brought the premium down by over £200.
    I must admit, I feel as if I'm being "tagged" like a prisoner :o
