had a walk out this morning and noticed loads of things - this staying alert is good stuff....

In some personal good news, spoke to my sister earlier and she's feeling a bit better for the second day in succession so here's hoping she's on the up.

Thanks again to all who have asked after her - like I said yesterday, some good people out there

Thats good news, but warn her about to much to soon, she will still have some down days but not as bad as it was but positive attitude can work wonders and some sun

Update from cousins dad he has just done his first outdoor walk since coming out of hospital and asked him if he can meet him at a local canal for a catch up and do some fishing

Cheers fellas

She's not going anywhere near work until at least the 18th and I'm still keeping my distanced eye on her in case of any dips in form.

Best wishes to you and yours as always

As a matter of interest have you signed up to Martin Lewis's newsletter that he emails once a week.

Unless you think he's going to steal your data and invade your privacy It's worth doing

On that subject I use Flipper, you pay them £25 a year and they constantly monitor your fuel usage and 'flip' you onto a cheaper supplier whenever one comes up, easily worth the 25 quid

I've used MSE to change suppliers a couple of times, been with Pure planet since November as they were the cheapest I've had no problems with them except now MSE says I can save £240 by switching again which is 20% a year.
That sounds too good to be true, I could switch without penalties but what's the betting they'll find someone else cheaper in a month or two

Chuffy do you need a smartmeter for Flipper. I'm holding out until they've 100% sorted the problems

Edit
Seeing this is meant to be a positive thread I think this qualifies
Just clicked the button to switch to Akro Energy. Fixed for a year and if they're **** I can leave without penalties.
