enthusiasticsaver said:I have also been advised that PPR is posting privileges removed. I would have thought they would message you though and obviously you can post. The only thing I would say is to make sure your photos have no identifying information on as I think I recall seeing one recently with your partners face sideways on. I think you normally black out the van registration plate but maybe one of those got missed? That is honestly the only reason I can think of as to why they would remove privileges. Not sure if you have tried to upload photos since then.0

Not a no spends day today. I have been to the shop this morning to pick up essential cold survival kit. Tissues, tablets and soup.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner are from stores. Breakfast was toast, we have both taken our packed lunches to work and dinner tonight is posh hot dogs with chips and onion rings.
No jobs tonight. I'm going to get in have a shower and get laid on the sofa under a blanket.1 -

They seem to be more inclined to just dish out posting bans now for relatively minor infringements - although I can think of one forum member on another board who might be heading for a real PPR if they don’t behave themselves when they’re next allowed to post!There seem to be all manner of various types of colds around at the moment - MrEH has had a sore throat and a cough but that hasn’t gone snotty either!🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡

My nose is like someone has turned a tap on today. It will not stop running and I feel absolutely shocking.
Unfortunately I have had to send the other half up to Carlisle to meet family on his own. A duvet day on the sofa for me. He has taken the dog for some company.
I feel terrible sending him all that way on his own but there is no way I would have managed the journey and walking around Carlisle. Just walking to the loo is tiring me out!
I'm off my food as well which is a sure sign I'm ill 🤣🤣🤣
Not a no spends day. The car has been filled up and the other half will want some food while he is out.
I will grab something from the fridge for dinner if I feel like it later. Just going to drop a pizza in the oven for dinner tonight.
The dog was confused last night because I slept on the sofa. Although he is loving the duvet on the sofa. He keeps getting curled up in it.2 -
Hope you feel better soon. I am sure your family appreciate you not sharing your germs but sad you can’t see them.
