Taking dds to the docs this morning as her face is getting worse by the day.
It seems so unfair that she will get no wages due to an accident at work. Employers cannot fail to win, the other week he said he needed her in on a night she doesn't normally work, she said she couldn't because her partner was doing a foreigner after work. He continued to insist he needed her so we all jumped through hoops collecting dgd, travel cot up so she could stay etc. Dd was at work an jour and it was very quiet, so he sent her home. The joys of zero hour contracts eh.....not!
Rant over, I've just added 10x2kg pork joints to my basket on a cnc order for this afternoon and ticked the substitutions box, thry should honour it if they have no stock of the counter pork shouldn't they? The shop I went to yesterday doesn't have a fresh counter.
It is unfair.....it can be all one way traffic sometimes:o
I'm thinking your pork strategy might be the way forward Di......that and Izzeys Lidl list might be the best way to save our pennies:)To do is to be. Rousseau

Frugal October. Basically where we set a minimal budget for the month - essentials only - have as many no spend days as poss and use stuff from cupboards/freezer in an attempt to save money and free up space for Christmas stuff.

You would have done loads today if your weather was like ours

Yes, same here but it didnt start until after we went out where this morning and then it bucketed down. Coming back up the M6 traffic was at a stand still and it monsooned.
Then by the time we got home and Id uploaded the receipts and caught up it was 3 oclock ... this is how I manage to loose entire days :mad:“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove.
