I have actually technically missed one of the goals in the match today:rotfl:. I wasn't really watching the match though. Clearly, as I missed the goal. I want it to be Mexico and Iceland in the final, with Iceland winning and Iran (I have Iran in the 'sweepstake') coming in 3rd place:rotfl:.
I hope the current match ends in the shocker of a 1-1 draw. I just like controversy here and unexpected or 'shocking' results.0 -

He had IV antibiotics , he still has antibiotics the doctor on holiday gave him but they said not to take anymore as no infection there, they did blood tests and swabs:o
But they are all leaking through the dressings they put on:(
If there is no sign of infection then i would still go and see gp, district nurse should be able to re dress them for him, if the blisters are leaking/popping it may turn into infection. if hes unable to travel the nurses may visit him at home.'Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle'0 -

Paid 55p and got £1.10 back on each one:T:T
As I checked the other accounts I noticed that I'd had a receipt declined on 8th June. I've kept all my receipts but I'm in a right muddle with them. I havent written on the back of all of them to which account they apply:o
They are the beer ones too so higher than normal value. I think I've mistakenly written Q on the back of one and it should have been COS.
I haven't got the energy to sort it out so will have to wait until tomorrow:o
Think I might just send them all to mhoc for super scrutinisation
I ought to tut and raise eyebrows but I cant judge.
OHs old Samsung and little len (both android) both started to have problems with photos - big silver strip down the middle of the photos. So I put one COS account onto the ipad and that's worked well.
OH has put the spare account uploaded onto his fancy new phone which I cant even open. If any receipts need uploading to the spare COS I have to get OH to do it. As you can imagine its a faff always as OH needs an explanation as to how to claim and upload every single time - I think he is deliberately being dim-witted.
And this is how I got in a muddle with the Mr T receipts for the Bahlsen biscuits last week - uploading the same receipt to different accounts and ending up with nasty red rejections.
I think finally all receipts have been uploaded and all excepted but there was some prize swear words uttered in the meantime ...“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove. Every day will allow you, --will invite you to add something to the pleasure of others, --or to diminish something of their pains.”0 -

That one might be good - I'll consider it. Is versus M the best comp. available?
On the Wotsits, I still have 20 pack in M (N/A in A) at £2.
I'm nowhere near to finishing the M list today - I still have lots of new items to add from last Wednesday. They generally seem to be on though (in fact I haven't come across anything yet that I had but which has already ended online, but then again I haven't added a large percentage of what I have) - the items to be added will still be on for another week or, often, more (as they had only just started in M this week). The list will therefore be up-to-date but just missing new items until I add them into tomorrow and probably into Tuesday, but may go a bit out of line tomorrow for a few days when things change again until I attempt to catch up with them on Wednesday.
I think the 'problem' (it's not really one as the above is the workaround) is that I'm only getting about 2 or 3 hours a day to do the updating, instead of full days that are needed. Yes, it really does take that lot - however I'm going at my leisurely pace. I have had some actually nice weather a few days ago, so wanted to go out and enjoy that. I think the main thing though is the World Cup matches that I have been sometimes watching instead - although I can do updating at the same time as having some of that in the background (if any such thing exists for me), so it's actually not spending all the time on the lists as, whenever I'm doing them, I'm always doing something else so using the time efficiently!
I won't be going to M tomorrow, certainly not for any full collection - if I do anything there at all, it may be just a quick check in one store that won't comprehensively deal with everything and left off until the evening - but then that clashes with the England match doesn't it? I need to buy things elsewhere than M (and elsewhere than Avs M) during the day and it also looks like the best day for me in the next few days to do the washing, until Thursday for more washing then created when it's supposed to be a good day everywhere. So I'm missing out Monday again for M (unless I do an intentionally partial collection to tide things over) and I'm then carrying everything over to Wednesday, making more changes for that day, when I was supposed to be doing another wider collection across six stores so will probably just make that even more!
Then next week - I may do Monday or I may not - looks like I won't in fact if I have so much from this Wednesday changes - I'm expecting the Ramadan offers to be off by now and will find out whether that is or isn't so (they are probably items that I would be marking expired on the Monday collection tomorrow were I doing one) - no use looking at online for some of those, as some items had already gone OOS last week there even though either known or extremely strongly suspected (and therefore in effect 'known') still to exist in stores and a couple others have been showing full price online throughout the last month even though seen only on offer in stores. Next week will be 'bad' again - as I will just fall out of line again being unable to visit many stores until I can catch up fully again later with a wider collection on some other week.0 -
