    I got the right toothbrushes but wrong trigger, was ment to be the toothpaste. Thatll teach me to take my husband shopping with me. Totaly forgot and got confused. Still got an £5 apg though so not that bad. not as good as £14 tho. Thanks anyways.

    Ah ok, I've been doing my dental shops against waitys. Worth a look as you can combine cereal, cleaning or squash with the shop too.

    An example might be..

    1 steradent
    1 pack zigzag
    1 pack twister
    1 ambrosia 120g rice pot
    2 robinsons 1.75 cordial (1 orange and 1 apple andblackberry)
    1 pack frosties 750g
    1 48 pack weetabix
    1 pack rice crispies 510g

    cost approx 18 quid with an APG back of 15 quid

    I'm still undecided about the Kindle, was looking at them a wee while back, but just cant make up my mind. I read quite a lot, but I love books iykwim and don't know if it would be the same with a Kindle. I'm far to indecisive that's my problem!

    Right, kettles boiled, really am moving now. Shall be back at half 12 for the Mars giveaway though :cool:

    I love to read and my holiday packing always included at least 6 paperbacks - played hel with my luggage allowance ! My DH kept banging on about a Kindle and I resisted for nearly 2 years as, like you, I didn't think it would be the same as a proper printed book. I loved the feel of a book and the sensation of turning pages - eventually I said that I would get one kust for use on holiday and I swore that I would still read normal books and visit the library when I was home.

    Do you know, I got my Kindle 13 months ago - and I haven't been to the library since ! I am totally hooked and my Kindle is far more important to me than my mobile phone.

    Stoll plodding along. The idea of the appt at the hosp rather than someone coming to our house was to get him out. Been having trouble trying to get him to leave the house.....but he managed ok.

    And it was nice to leave the house without cleaning up this morning. We been having nurses/support workers etc everyday so constantly feel like I'm tidying up for them coming....leaving it like a tip and shutting the door ony way out was quite liberating:D
