yes, I know but the voucher is on OHs phone which is with him and its a new shiny phone which I cant even switch on even if I had it with me My thoughts are that if I have tomorrow all planned out then OH will have less time to object or find reasons for just going to neros and then heading straight back to work ...

Good plan . Check for vouchers too - Wontu has £5 pizza/pasta (max 2 per table), Bella I had 40% off mains https://www.bellaitalia.co.uk/offers/40-off-main-courses?campaignId=65227 and there is buy one main, get one for £1 on other sites too so it is working out which is cheapest.

And then making sure the final bill is in multiples of £20 ... :eek:. It used to be simple - choose restaurant, go, eat, pay. Now you need to work out all combinations of vouchers and prices/calculate the bill before you walk in .

Morning peeps.

Just on my way to hospital to have a plate removed from my ankle/leg. It's been there for 10 years and given me nothing but trouble!

Wish me luck. Hope to be home later.

Good luck!

Let us know how it goes. I have plate & pins in one ankle been there about 17 years, had no problems as such luckily.

I was told they couldn!!!8217;t remove after two years as the bone would !!!8216;grow over it!!!8217; after that. I decided not to as I!!!8217;d rather not go through another operation.

If the price is the same, always book directly with the airline. Its much easier in case of any problems as you can speak directly to them rather than having to go through (an often useless) 3rd party!

RE the westher. I'm due to be working on the Mall Friday Sat and Sunday so might be a bit hot!! Ordered some business cards over the weekend in my quest for new clients. Not looking good at work longterm.

As for the AP, we didn't ever have too many as I didn't put that much effort into it, I just used my the app 'normally'. So we're down to our last £5 Gweggs and still have £22 on a PE voucher. I've got a Tastecard so we can stretch the PE over 2 nights. We're going to go tonight, and also try and use the free beer voucher from the National Pub Fortnight offer. :-)


Edited to say, the free beer won't be at PE, but a pub nearby.

Ooh thanks for this. Didnt realise it was on. Not sure if its been mentioned on here yet.
I've got a pub a short walk away participating in this so will pop in this evening when walking Tessa. Hopefully get a nice pint of Cider

Dull day here & feeling better mentally

Parents might have a buyer for their house
That Sister will be on Immunotherapy treatment for a maximum of two years
Fourp is a lot better on new tablets

He also rearranges the rockery every day for a new climbing experience for the tortoises who like a challenge

It astonished me how quick and nimble they can be when we had a neighbour with one, had no idea how well they could climb :eek: You might have to fence off the raspberries though, maybe it's looking for shade?

I agree. Always book with the airline direct, unless the savings are massive. If he had booked with Qatar there is a chance they would have honoured the price.
