    awww Bully, your Mam sounds FAB! I hope to be the same when I am her age. DH told me off as I insisted on taking DS to nursery and picking him up, and he would have done it, but he isn't earning much and he would lose money as he would lose hours taking and collecting DS.

    photobucket anywhere? So far I have managed to sign up to photobucket and upload the photo but now have no idea how to share it.
    Aesop wrote: »
    if you hover over your photo, you will find a drop down box comes up with different labels, email, direct link, img, etc. (no too complicate for shopndrop)

    You want the last one, copy the IMG code. ( me give you shorter way - Aesop way the photo will come out too large! )

    Come back here, click on the insertimage.gif icon on top of the reply to thread box, paste in your url from the IMG code, you will need to remove the begining IMG and end IMG, as if this on twice, it will not post. ( Yes follow Aesop instruction)

    Click reply and hey presto one pic of flowers :D

    Photobucket :-

    1) Click on the photo to open it up
    2) When you move your mouse : this might show up on top of your photo
    File, edit, resize, rotate, share, order prints, save as profile pic

    If it does show the above as File, etc, etc all you need to do is

    3) click on resize ( I like to resize the photo so that it will not appear too large when you post here) : then go for 320 x 240

    4) scroll down & save a copy or replace original up to you.

    5) Once it is saved.

    6) Right click on the photo "copy image location"

    7) come back here & follow Aesop instruction above in blue.

    And this is what you get :-

    Total is £37.90

    I did tell them once that i don't use phone much (she was saying the same thing to me too even though I had my loyalty package including anytime unlimited calls - she said I used a lot which is bull !!!!!! I think its their way of scaring us - don't believe it what they say.), or even call mobile's and they said i did!. It was one call for a minute or two :eek:

    Bunny you are paying too much.

    The way I look at it, you need to haggle with them ( if you prefer to stick with them) till you get about the same price as me.

    £20.40 (rental & broadband) + any calls make during peak hours.:eek:

    If not I think like Bully said, its about time you look as well for your B/band & rental charges.

    Morning all:)

    Bit confused with mail rewards club atm received a letter in the post with two cards taste card (exp 6/5/12)and love to shop where they will add your rewards to rather than post. Worryingly they now say you need to collect over 6 weekends rather than current four for rewards but with your reward you will also receive a booklet of vouchers, signed in to mail account couldn't see anything there but just re read the letter again they have a link www.mailonline.co.uk/rewards for full details of changes so going to look after posting this. The letter seems to be saying EVEN BIGGER EVEN BETTER but doesn't seem to be the case

    I applied for 2 x pizza meal deal back in January still haven't received these emailed them said they were waiting for supplies have since applied for two more one which has arrived but the other only applied last sat but either way they obv got suipplies but still havent sent the Jan ones out so need to chase these again

    Just clicked link takes you to the main site you input your codes can't see any info relating to the letter still showing the same rewards same number of entries you need for next reward so still confused

    5th paragraph reads with so many readers joining mail rewards club you'll have to collect a little longer to earn rewards - registering your unique no from Sat D M and the MOS over six weeksends reather than the current four. Also says PLUS from Feb onwards you will be able to bank your unique numbers to save up for Even Bigger rewards

    Hopefully this will show you all
    a) what lovely flowers I got
    b) the fact I have managed to use photobucket with a load of help from Aesop and DWW.

    Hurray, it worked :j:j:j Aesop and DWW you are :A:A Thank you.

    BS - hope you mum is OK. She sounds a really strong lady.
    Aesop - hope you feel better really soon, you seem to be having a really bad time at the moment. Wish I lived nearly so I could take your DS out to give you some "you" time. Sounds like you need a rest.
