Just spent time on M & S website for some new summer t shirts (local shop never has size/colour I want) and as usual I get to checkout and the computer just freezes. Happens every time with their website. :mad::mad::mad:
Ask if shop can order them in for you and tell them abt their cr*p website checkout.....

I've had that with M&S several times too. If at that time you call and order over the phone, telling them what has happened, and ask them to talk you though correcting the issue, they usually do the order there and then, plus free delivery, to "compensate" for the cost of the call/inconvenience.

Thanks for that, I'll give it a try :)

Pasta, sorry to me it's vile, yeuch lol (and full of nasty carbs)
Went to close living room window and spotted two wasps - arrgghh ! The only of God's creatures I absolutely despise. Just when I got the swatter out I looked again and carefully identified them as bees. Well I like bees, harmless and pollenators. Got a jar and a bit of card and liberated them. Good deed for the day.

Still alive, according to Wikipedia. After selling his share of the business, he apparently later accepted US$1,500 in return for renouncing any future claims that he might have against Apple.

Apparently he'd been involved in previous unsuccessful business ventures and was worried that, as the only one of the Apple owners to have any tangible assets, he might find them being sequestered should Apple go down the pan.

Not exactly airbrushed with lucky stardust .... :)

Feeling like I should go back to bed and start again. Moo woke me at 7 peeing in bedroom so it was towels all round; got up at 8, let kitchen dogs out and towels down for a Sassie leak (must've woken at 7 too); brought them in to let Moo out and she'd peed again, more towels. Put rubbish out and she went to front door as I closed it, turned round she was peeing again....chucked towels under bum but she kept walking round so pee everywhere...back, hips and legs by this time screaming at me; gelled them up cos already taken painkillers, heard Moo jump,at window and split two food bags so dry everywhere and she helping herself...swept that up (she wasn't eating it all...she'd just eaten brekky!!) eventually ready to take B&B's breakfast out and it starts hammering down...... Can only get better ;-).
Plus clutch went on son's car last nite......

I woke this morning feeling absolutely terrible...major wave of nausea followed by a couple of hours of vomiting...shaking like a leaf...not nice at all .

Aware that I have a hospital appointment later this afternoon I contacted them to see if I could rearrange my appointment but was told that as this is the second time I've cancelled that they are discharging me so I will need to go back to dentist for further X-rays and another referral. I'm not ashamed to say...I begged the lady on the phone and explained my situation in graphic detail until she finally relented and agreed to make a few phone calls. Now awaiting a call back....

Thankfully sickness (touch wood) seems to have passed...but now just wanting to go back to bed...but scared I'll fall asleep and miss the call

Fingers crossed you get new appt without all rigmarole of new referral

Wasps..............eeeeeeeek....seems to be quite a few about now.....been phobic about them since one got down my top without me realising,,,,I was shopping and kept jumping and scratching at whatever was irritating me....it got quite painful after a short while so when I got in the car I pulled my top forward to see a huge wasp and about 20 stings !!!! That was my second association with them as one previously got under my arm while I was watering the garden...I put my arm down and got stung 4 times....2 under arm and 2 on my boob :(...hate them with a passion
