    Sarah - that is fabulous news, well done.

    I need to start searching for a job... lol!

    TM - Your lunch sounds lovely!

    Off to search the fish...

    I am going for a medical appointment, then to A - for wine - I will get champagne for when DS1 visits after the wedding....

    And some other wine - as they drink like fish!

    Lovely to have you back

    How was the wedding and probably more importantly the Hen Night as that was your responsibility :eek:


    Hope you find a job with a better work life balance but I think you are too committed for a basic 9.-5 job

    From an email this morning from Closer magazine - I cant see what the price is or the edition or how long you have to use, probably a week or so but it has a Greggs flash on the front.

    A voucher for a free hot drink and a donut from Greggs

    Although the AP people are drowning in Greggs £3 and £5 vouchers and by now loath the place :)

    Might be of use if you have a conditional spend to use and you don't have enough shopping or you need to top up your Waitrose or Booths shop to get a free newspaper/magazine/magazine etc. Or you have a stray low value wombled APG to use up.
    Possibly you can use Boots points to buy magazines???

    Oooh thanks for this. Worth checking your Greggs app rewards too - Free bottle of Lucozade showing on mine, valid until 04/04/18 :D

    We set off for wedding on the 21.3.18. Ive been absent due to work... hence the midwlife crisis resignation! The idea is to relax and get things done before we set off and to be able to enjoy the time away. Despite doing a few hours work this morning i am bored already...bu i know it will be hard to adjust from silly hours to a life....... The hen do has evolved..... significantly. I have 12 tjings that buzz packed in my suitcase omg!

    Suggestions please.

    I am getting quotes for annual travel insurance can anyone suggests any specialist travel insurance companies they use?

    We have worldwide travel insurance as part of our Nationwide Flexplus packaged account but because of OHs medical conditions we have to pay for the upgrade - £144 a year - this is on top of the £13 a month the package costs us so £156 plus £140 a year total £300.

    The Flexplus package now only covers travel insurance, mobile phone insurance and breakdown/recovery - the later I can get from Groupon if I can remember the name of the company ...

    So far I've rung Staysure who have quoted me £162 (although it does not cover dodgy places :) USA, Canada, Caribbean, Bermuda, Mexico, Thailand, China & Hong Kong which we are never likely to get to anyway)
    We are only booked up until the end of this year so this might be the final year of the long trips away anyway ...

    Has anyone else had an email this morning from our pale friends north of the border about a product delivery?

    The item is being sent out today but it didn't ring any bells so I checked back on any emails I've had from them - I've not applied for anything this week, thinking that trials would be week or 2 week ones so they might get missed with Easter coming up ... I've been waiting for month or longer trails.

    When I looked this item up the only survey that matched the description was from last August ...

    :)
