We are gifting a deposit to DS2 - if this purchase ever happens - we’ve just done the ID stuff (passport) and a copy of a savings account that is actually our offset mortgage account. The money isn’t actually going to come from that account, but it satisfies the solicitor. For source we’ve just put ‘accumulation of excess income over the years’ and they’ve accepted that. Definitely has to be a gift if the kids are getting a mortgage.

Good morning. I can remember when I had the delivery DD came to work with me one day and she went round the corner to the Safeway and got a handful of magazines. Amongst others there was an isla Jura coupon for £5 off, these were the days when Ts took competitors coupons, happy days they were 😂
MrsMac have you seen any offers on Coco Mademoiselle recently? Best I can find is £130 for 100ml at B@@ts.

Good morning all, lovely day here.
Well done Bananababe, you deserve that job, just hope they deserve you!
What is it with all the hulabaloo about photo ID? We were the last country in europe to require ID to vote, I could never understand why you were allowed to do something so vital without proper ID!! Doesn't help that round here the Nepalis were rather open about the fact that the men were the ones that voted for their women! And I recall hearing about a party going around uni accommodation and asking the students if they were going to vote, if they said no they would go and use their vote. This was proved by at least one lot changing their minds and actually going to vote, and being told they had already done so. All we have to do now is sort out the postal vote that is being messed around with instead!
Rant over, I am off out on my bike today if I get time, have to vote and get some milk first.

Sorry Di Nothing recently Best "cost" for me would have been using a one for all4all voucher when boots were doing £10 worth of points on £60 spend which was some time ago Even duty free at airport and resort shops were expensive
I cant wear it now DH has developed an intolerance to it has his eyes were streaming when we were in the car together but just itchy eyes around the house Not found a replacement that I love yet

i was just reminding ppl they needed ID coz not everyone carries it at all times.
Those people you mention could get proxy votes anyway

I realise that, just I heard someone ranting about it in a shop the other day!. That same idiot was saying "I bet you don't need photo ID anywhere else" The ironic thing was she was buying booze, for which she needed - photo ID!!! She used her driving licence which was obviously acceptable for voting.
There is too many ways round it, the system needs sorting.
What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare
Dry and sunny start to the day here although we had quite a bit of rain yesterday so everywhere is a bit soggy.
Spuds, I hope the day wasn't too difficult for you yesterday and you had lots of support from family and friends. The funeral for my DH was one of the hardest days of my life. I don't think I will ever forget how many people turned up though. I knew he was a popular and much liked man but the numbers who came to the funeral astounded me, as once the inside of the crematorium was full they were standing several deep outside. That didn't help at all in keeping my eyes dry.
Huge congratulations on getting the job, bananababe. Hope you will really enjoy it.
Hope everyone is well and happy, have a great day whatever they you are doing.
I was very late to this party First gliche was 4p Jaffa cakes at Asda So many wonderful things since then and I am still in awe of many of you but happy with what I save
Later I am dropping off a wee gift to my favourite assistant in Sainsburys She retires today only 63 but her best friend and another younger colleague both died suddenly this year so she has decided to spend more time with her family while she can and is able. She is delightful and will be missed
I am "buying" a new sewing machine today with vouchers I got for particiapting in a study, so basically a freebie Wanted it to be a proper item not just food or clothes so it will a constant reminder
I had a new customer ocado 25% off code, only because I accidentally signed up when on the search for some M&S china that showed up on google as stocked by ocado. I thought it would be a great deal. Put my order together on choosing things that were already on special offer in ocado, my total saving on an £80 order (to meet minimum spend) was just 12%. I can't believe the prices people must pay. Specials plus 25% off and still only 12% cheaper!!
I joined MSE a long time ago, doesn't seem to give that info on site but it was AT LEAST 2006.
when you log on go to profile and it tells you when you when you joined
Couldn't see the wood for the trees before. Don't often visit that place anymore! Anyway, apparently I joined February 10 2005! I was sooooo much younger lol.

The reality is SC we wont ever ask for it back. I'm glad we can help as parents. I think i got a clock from my parents for my first council flat.how the world has changed in 35 years.
Good luck for your DS2 purchase. Ps did you figure out the lino ?
Re voting. I have been elections staff and we had a guy come in and vote and then rey again on his father's address. Luckily the guy I was working for knew all the folk round there so called him out..
We served so many people that day it might of slipped through otherwise.
Funny one was looking up at next customer and this guy was Noel Edmunds double and I said it without thinking. He clearly had hears it before and wasn't best pleased. I learned quickly to keep thoughts to myself.
I was asked to work today but the 15 hours is a killer with sciatica and just not worth the cash.
@enterprise thanks and you're maybe right, they might wonder after they've employed me, although they did ask me at interview if I had an example of when I had pushed back on something not right. I took a breath and she says if you need a minute.. I said just trying to decide which one to tell you lol 😆

Oh no, that's happened with me and flowers 😭 thankfully only indoors. Boots have 50ml of la vie est belle for £45 at the moment I may have that for now to put me on.
I found yous when my husband was ill and I wasn't sure we'd manage. Googled how to make money on the Internet. Found MSE and the thread that kept disappearing.
I joined at mission control time cause it was so exciting and I just had to comment.
And the rest they say is history... 😃
Thanks, the Babe, am assuming that OG means old girl. About right.

Thanks. I think it is going to fail, their mortgage offer runs out in 4 weeks and the seller hasn't sent contracts over yet. They'll have lost money on having a full survey and other things. I think they will find a rental until the baby arrives and look again next year.
