How much?! For that sort of cash they could also afford to pay someone to proofread and correct their grammar and spelling.

I knew Aldi was cheaper than Tesco but yesterday, after a small shop of fresh food and essentials I decided on a line by line comparison, I was shocked. I bought 20 items at Aldi for £24.43. Tesco for the equivalent items came to £31.16 a difference of £6.73. Thats a hell of a saving.

I was up a little later than you then Mav, just after six. Ribs hurting too much to get comfortable enough to carry on sleeping.

Greetings from Amsterdam. I am cream crackered. Been here two days on a staff meeting with my current client (are you sure you want us riff raff contractors along, "yes", alright then) but of course I have several to-do items as a consequence. We did a team building this evening in an escape room - teams of 5 in a locked room solving puzzles in an hour to get out. What a f*&^ing waste of time - there was no way we could have done it without the minders constantly feeding us clues "hold it up to the picture of the rabbits on the wall" what???? Just let us out so we can go and get some dinner - we've been on the go for 12 hours already and I'm f-ing starving!!! I nearly chinned the guy that let us out when he smirked at us not getting the last unfathomable nonsense about the number of corners on the shapes in the mirror in the other part of the room that lit up for five seconds at random that we should have entered to a combination padlock on an unmarked cupboard beside the five other unmarked cupboards that were red herrings.... If your boss suggests doing one of these as a team building tell them to do one!


I'm off to bed. Its a public holiday here in the Netherlands on Thursday and a school holiday so we've been told to expect delays and queues at security at Schipol on our way home tomorrow evening - looking forward to that...

Sir Trev I've never seen you use expletives in a post before so it must be bad

Could have been worse, this guy might have turned up

For any of you with elderly parents, do yourself and them a favour, by getting a Power of Attorney, so that you can look after their affairs, if they can't.

Do one for the money & one for health. I only did the money one last year, but I'm glad I did, as my mum has gone downhill really fast, made worse by a fall and hip fracture last month.

The cost has also been reduced to £89 from £120 I saw in a Hotdeals email. Don't pay for a company to do it for you, its really easy to complete the online form.

Don't leave it for the Probate to sort out
