    Hubby has done that when I have not been at home as well for the kids, it's easy to just click and watch, but they do not understand that a fiver here and there adds up

    Our $ky broadband drops occasionally but normally a reboot does the job. It did cut out for a couple of hours a few weeks ago as there was a problem with the signalling masts locally but that could happen with anyone. It's worth checking your coverage before you switch xx

    Ours will drop for full days quite often.. The last time it was 9am ok a morning not due to be restored until 4.30pm! And I was meant to be working from home that day so I asked them what I was meant to do and they were like well I don't know travel to work? I was like ok so drive 5 hours to work because you aren't providing the service we pay for really?! Then told me they don't refund services unless it's been down 24 hours grr. I said ok can you put me through to cancellations please they put me on hold then put me through and miraculously our internet came back up during that time even though it was an unexpected technical issue!? Coincidence?

    We don't use the internet much so we rarely have a problem. We just use it for general internet browsing. Most of our internet usage is probably on downloading movies and on catch up tv, but we've never had a problem with that, it's quick as anything x

    If you're a v1rg1n customer you can get ridiculous mobile phone deals too. I have sim only unlimited texts, 100 minutes and 1gb data for £5 a month!? Could do with more data but for £5 it's crazy

    My afternoon dragging too - clock watching. Just completed one appraisal that I need to type up, but have little motivation. Also had a really early lunch and am hungry, so have been looking at Sl1mm1ng W0rLd recipes online, which isn't helping.
    Exciting about booking the honeymoon Mrs Wade :-)

    Becci we have 5ky and the broadband is terrible. Doesn't drop out for long, only 5-10 mins but it's at least half a dozen times a day. We can't get V1rg1n where we are unfortunately or I would drop them in an instant.

    Sounds nice Flossie, hopefully it will clear the air between them if it's the ones not getting on great.

    Heads up for anyone with kids or anyone looking for toys. Arg0s 3 for 2 event on toys starts tomorrow apparently. Very bad time though as pay day not til Monday so credit card may be hit lol. Does anyone know if they do another event b4 Xmas?

    Urgh. Not a brilliant initial consultation with my neurosurgeon :( he's lovely but said for such a high speed collision it's still very early days but wants full scans to see what's actually going on and said not to expect recovery within two years. I could scream the tears have already run out :( the only positive is he said he doesn't think I'll need surgery but has to wait for the scans to be sure

    2 years is such a long time!! God knows when I'll be able to return to work now and how long I'm going to have to rely on pain relief; all I want to be able to do is take my dog for long walks and be free to be able to run and keep fit!
