Thank you for your kind words @bekindalways - it seems to literally be take a few steps forward, then I'm OK, then have difficulty standing; I'm sure time will heal.

@MarkM88 from what I see on the forum people have alot of things such as Netflix and sky my point was for the price you pay you get alot more for prime than paying 5.99 just for Netflix so in the the long run prime gives you free delivery on shopping and same day delivery and films and boxsets and other programmes and free books to read on line  if people want them there are always slots for shopping  and as I said free music  some places charge 4.99 for delivery I shop twice a week so that would cost me 9.98 delivery  where as I only pay 7.99 a month for prime and get everything that was my point 

Example Netflix 5.99 a month 4.99 a month delivery for shopping so thsts 10.98 a month just pointing other ways can be cheaper

I think the bit you are misunderstanding though is all I was saying is that regardless what you get for your money not everyone can afford it so therefore don’t have access to Morrisons through Amazon.

I think this conversation has raised some interesting points around budgeting and affordability, which is something I'm sure many of us will be even more conscious of moving into April. I don't personally have any subscriptions, but I do leech of other people's Netflix accounts I know lots of people find Prime useful and convenient, but I don't think I'd use it enough for it to be worth it for me. 

I hope you enjoy your day out with your sister in law @sandy_123! And that you have a goof time at your nan and grandad's @MarkM88 What will you both be getting up to? It's nice to catch up with family.

I'm sorry to hear about your husband's dad @SueHeath. Perhaps they'd find it helpful to get in touch with Dementia UK?

Hi @woodbine

Thanks for your response. I think it is really good to have something you enjoy and benefit from. Amazon Prime sounds wonderful! Though, yes, I agree with the importance and focus on budgeting as well

Thanks @Tori_Scope we went to the college and met with the head man a freind of my sister in laws, who treated us to star bucks coffee in the college restaurant, altho we'd just had a costa. Then to a leather museum, a spot of lunch. Then we said bye, I went and finally got some saffron I'd been trying to get for weeks. Now resting my spine for an hour.

Another busy day for me, my sister whose husband is dying from a brain tumour, managed to get a sitter for a few hours, so I travelled, Met her for lunch n coffee,  my backs killing me now aching. Plus it rained all day. Coffee and a lie down.

SueHeath

Bless you Sandy you done a bit of walking last couple of days - you suffering the cause now ( thats how i put it ha ha), better then not doing it.
Hope your sister and the rest of you are okay it's so tragic.
Bet your sister was glad of a bit of restbite hope it was a lovely distraction for her x

Sandy_123

Morning, looks a good day to peg washing out.  Pottering around the house today then grandkids coming over later.

Tori_Scope

I'm sorry to hear about your sister's husband @Sandy_123. It sounds as though you've had a pleasant few days, however How was the leather museum? I like going to museums, but don't go often enough! I think the last one I went to was a medical one, which was really interesting. 

How's your back today? Enjoy your day with the grandkids!

Tori_Scope

Do you have any weekend plans @SueHeath? 

MarkM88

I’ve spent my morning watching some videos on accounting and finance that have been shared with me. 

Sandy_123

@Tori_Scope the leather museum was intresting, my town was really big in the leather trade, sadly lots of the factory's were closed and some turned into flats. Yet the town still trades in leather, with exports to Japan and also making the queen's hand bags. We were shown  how to sew, also the materials that are now banned in UK, we were shown those that they kept in stock, but not able to be used. Also its free and they have a cafe.
My backs fine today after a good rest thanks for asking.
