Hello

I'm back did you miss me?

Gins just caught up on here sorry to hear about your friend you and JB must have got a shock <3 <3

My cake turned out ok and O loved it.

Been busy yesterday taking sons car to my mechanic as a certain well known garage had told him that he needed to get the suspension done at a cost of around £280

He had just had the brake discs and pads replace at £180
My guy said he would have charged £100-£120 for the work.

He isn't open on a Saturday and son couldn't wait till then

He checked the suspension yesterday and said nothing wrong with car and it would pass an MOT no problem

We are drafting a complaint to K Fit and I am also going to contact trading Standards

I am ANGRY the money they quoted is a months wages to my son who is working P/T and is a student

I will also advise them that we will be posting on social media about their rip off business standards

These Garages are often a rip-off Linds.

I always take mine to the local Co-op Garage where I have been going for over 20 years. My husband and friends and relatives also go there too !

Before that the garages always found something wrong - a brake pipe or a bit of the exhaust or anything which cost a lot of money but my Co-Op garage just told me the truth and only charged me when there was something to charge me for !!!

Go for it !! - If they have done wrong - post it on social media and save the other poor souls from falling for it !!

P.S. - Glad the cake and the party went well !! <3 <3 <3

Linds

I took my last car (BMW) to K Fit for it's first MOT, they failed it on the emissions. Told me they could fix the problem and re-test, for a price, which I can't remember now

Took it down to the BMW dealer (where I should have gone in the first place) where they ran a test........

Emissions were perfect

Sytner (BMW dealer) immediately contacted SOVA to report K Fit. SOVA were out the next day to check K Fit equipment and records

Have registered a complaint with T Standards and phone KF's HO am waiting on local area manager phoning me

This can take up to 3 days. They have been told if I don't get a call I will not be

calling them back and I will be using social media and other means to spread the

word about their appalling practice of ripping off customers.

Mornin~~~~~~~~~~~

Toasted teacakes :-)

Doh

Been having prickly, itchy spots on my neck, thought it must be a cream I'm using but then realised today, I've been using the cream for ages without any issues

Today it registered............changed laundry detergent a couple of weeks ago

Got all my clothes lined up for a re-wash!

I did the same thing a few years ago Ginns - Never again !!!!!! :-(

Well, I have put my Christmas Tree up - the children will be so excited tomorrow !

They love my tree - Their trees (all 7 of them :-0 ) are all colour co-ordinated and do look very nice but my tree has a mixture of ornaments and baubles that I have accumulated over the years - I have had some of them since I was little and they love looking at all the bits and pieces on there - finding santas and little elves and penguins and snowmen, reindeers and angels etc. - they are quite fascinated by them all.

That's me exhausted for the day - I'm off to put my jimmy jams on and put my feet up for an hour or two before bed.

Our tree too Dea

I have my G grandmothers glass baubles, passed down

It always looks very Victorian

I am exhausted the girls have worn me out.

They were fun today and O and I baked then when f got up she helped ice the fairy cakes.

Our tree went up on Saturday

Gins your baubles will be lovely.

Dea 7 trees???

Next few days are busy. Tomorrow food shop then on Friday morning we are going to see the nursery's nativity play.

When that finishes its home quick shower and catch train to Edinburgh.

The 4 grandparents are off for some R&R :-D

We are going to the theatre to see Wicked and we will have Dinner first.

We are all staying overnight not planned what we are doing on the Saturday before we come home might just play it by ear :-D

Just hope the trains are running ok with this horrible weather.

I am really looking forward to it.

We were up in the night to put together a eulogy for Vaughan' goodbye

So sad....far too young. He leaves an 11 year old daughter, who he adored <3

Gins (((HUGS)))

Had one of those days :-(

Have a lovely day everyone !!

Dea Xxx

Thank you

One of my favs.......... Cheese and onion tartlets :-D

Don't know if you have gone yet Linds but 'Have a lovely time' !!! <3

Dea Xxx

I've missed something or forgot..........where is Linds?

And what's with the soup maker advert...............why do people need a gadget when they have a pan and a hob!

Honestly :-|

I don't know about the soup maker thingy but Linds has gone to Edinburgh to watch 'Wicked' and then have dinner (or, I think, the other way around) - anyway, with the other in-laws and then home tomorrow !!

Wish I was there !!

Dea Xxx

Aw....thanks Dea, I do remember, forgot it was this weekend

I am not surprised with all you have been going through !! <3 <3 <3
