Morning all 😊

Had to Google “raphaman” 😂

Not good news the little house DD3 and BF were buying has fallen through, so angry the seller just went quiet after they had paid around £1500, search pack, survey solicitor fees etc. They had signed mortgage deed and we’re ready to exchange. They knocked as no one could get hold of her. Apparently she sent email weeks ago but estate agents said not and they think she has blocked their number as they kept trying but it says user busy. Not sure who to believe she was buying through same estate agent too. First they knew something wasn’t right was when their solicitor emailed hers and got a email back to say she was no longer client due to conflict of interest. 🤷🏻‍♀️

How people can do that to young couple who have been saving hard is beyond me. Even if her purchase is as she told them “not the one” surely you would keep lines communication open until you found another. They would have been happy to wait longer…

If you have a look on their website there is a list of the currently approved organisations that have access to your data. But that doesn’t mean it won’t be sold to something or somewhere that you don’t agree to at a later date.

I find the idea a little sinister, especially since they started off by targeting low income households and offering a £10 grocery voucher a few years ago.

And with the risk of our healthcare system becoming privatised in the near future, I don’t really want insurance companies being able to refuse insurance for the children based on some kind of hereditary thing that shows up in a genetic test, such as cancer.

Also as I understand it, they retain the blood sample for future testing and research, the same as some of these dna testing companies like 23 and me. So I can’t see how you’d have any idea what your sample would be used for in the future.

But that’s just me being super conspiracy theory ist (and also I detest Randox as a company after the whole Covid contract stuff)

Get the distinct feeling we were being watched 🤔🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧

Urgh I should have known better. Sent that husband to pick up a few essential items at the store.

Some highlights…

He bought kitten food… for our two surviving cats that have lived here for almost 10 years… in gravy… he cannot get gravy out of the pouch for love nor money…

He also spent (by his account) half an hour searching for bourbon biscuits without cream, because somehow in his mind they were like chocolate Nice biscuits and the cream is only present in bourbon cream biscuits. Bourbon biscuits are his favourite and he’s always bought cream filled ones before.

He bought calamari instead of onion rings because they’re the same shape

He bought maccheroni instead of macaroni because he assumed it was a spelling issue. One is the length of my palm and straight, the other is tiny and curved.

He also bought cheese with stuff in it despite knowing that the cheese loving monster will not accept food that has touched another food.

I totally agree with you on this as I nearly signed up a few years ago and didn’t like some of the future predictions like sharing and selling on.
We were offered genome sequencing for hubby and it took me two years to agree based on what the repercussions could be for our children and theirs .
We are three parts through it and they’ve found nothing so that’s good but the consultant keeps saying that they know so little and haven’t even scratched the surface brain wise.

Thanks Mattswife.

I’ve drunk my tea now thinking ‘what’s for breakfast?’
I’m not looking for sympathy but I have a raving temperature, stinking drippy cold, sore throat, cough, headache, body ache etc …..but feeling absolutely stomach crampingly ravenous. Weird eh? They say ‘starve a fever, feed a cold’ But I have a fever and a cold……

Have a good day everyone 😊

(& yes lbclbc - how did it get to end of August so fast!)
