Not over 70 (quite) but I have had a bit of back pain and my son has very mild asthma. Rang NW and they wanted an extra 180 quid to cover us, entered same details on a price comparison site and the family policy was £50 in total so NW wanted more than 3 times as much just to extend the policy.....

Few years back I had a bad chest infection after holiday was already booked and I had already taken out an extension to pay for DD2, DD3 was already covered under the policy. I had to pay another £95 as I had been given 3 different meds and inhalers. :eek:

If I hadn't already paid for the extension for DD2 I would have looked elsewhere but decided to stick with it on that occasion. I did get another holiday in before the year was up so felt I got my money's worth in the end.

The main reason I signed up to the account was for the car breakdown as that worked out cheaper for the 2 of us than what we were paying, so the other stuff came as free extras for us. :cool:

Evening peeps.

I've now just deleted all my A's accounts, all 67 of them. :eek:

So sad that there will be no more glitches across any supermarkets anymore.

That said, We had quite a few good years at their expense.

OR was it a ploy anyway. :cool:

I feel a list coming on

I only ever had the one. Can anyone else join me. :rotfl:

Popped into a Tesco superstore today and they had loads of the pork. :j

Got two just right sized joints for me around £4 each. :money: Lovely bits of leg with a bit of fat on.

Do them in a slow cooker with veg and a pint of flavoured stock. Add gravy. Bloody lush.

Everyone else would like the sound of that scamps but afraid I'm not a gravy person.

I like my meat dry. :cool: (DM behave )

If I do ever have gravy it is the tiniest splash on my veg but I can't stand it if it touches my roasties or yorkies. :eek:

I noticed a few RTCs in Ts today for long life fruit juices.

From memory value apple juice 1l 44p carton and organic orange juice 1l 88p. Worth a look in the section as I'm sure I read over on the other side that value orange juice was RTC but none in the store I was in today.

Kids hair accessories 15p/37p :money:



I got these few days ago when most were 37p and couple 15p but when I looked today quite a few had gone down further so the majority were 15p. Few different ones available too that I didn't pick...

Not seen it mentioned but the free tickets to IDH@Xmas are available today. The weekend ones are already sold out.

If anyone fancies an MSE meet I have managed to get couple for the Wednesday.

Sadly I can't take time off in the week. I knew they were available from 2pm but by the time I remembered at half past the weekend tickets had already gone. So MKS, HG and TS will have to drink my share this year!

Gravy on yorkies _pale__pale__pale_ They have to be crisp on the outside, OH has gravy on his but I perch mine on top of my spuds so they do not contact the gravy. Love gravy on roasties though
