    Notes to the F1 fans LH is looking awesome, but that car isn't going to win him anything except a trip to the pits or the hozi.

    Sticks with the proven team of SV & RB.

    I absolutely adore F1, if any program in this house requires peace and people to vacate the TV and let me watch it's that :D (which apparently isn't normal for a Female!!)
    I'm really not a Vettel fan (but i just hate people who win year after year, I find it boring!) I actually think given half a chance Di Resta could be a pretty good contender.
    I got back into F1 when Brawn started up and I do tend to prefer them as a team although I think this is probaby Red Bulls season again this year, if it is I'll be turning off halfway through again (although last season wasn't to bad).

    Well that was a waste of time, every single tosco rec bounced straight back with the usual message

    Hello,
    Sorry but we have had an error in our systems, so we cannot share your price promise results. Please try re-entering your receipt details and we will try again.
    We’re committed to getting it right for you. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and are looking to rectify the problem.
    Thank you for using Tesco Price Promise and for understanding,
    The Tesco Price Promise Team
    http://www.tescopricepromise.com/
    This is an email from Tesco.Com Limited. (Company Number 3942522). Registered in England. Registered Office: Tesco House, Delamare Road, Cheshunt, Hertfordshire EN8 9SL. VAT Registration Number: GB 220 4302 31

    So the only way to get a TPP now is to do your targeted shop and then ring Tosco HQ when you get home, complain bitterly and see if they will give you a gift card.

    I have tried using yopmail and yahoo and using 2 computers. I wonder if the system is recognizing your IP address

    And they have the cheek to send me conditional spends for a £30 shop as if I would spend £30 in Tosco!



    Needless to say when I rang HQ they say oh yes there is a problem and it willb e fixed tommorow.
    Time for an email I think. I have Philip Clarks email address saved in drafts - is that the correct email to use?

    Well finally caught up, resubmitted all of my rejected receipts for Q, although I am totally confused with some of them now as some go back to the 19th. I had an email yesterday to say 4 had been accepted and a list of items but no numbers with them and my activity list is still showing 8 rejects and OHs two rejects.
    Also went through my Tosco rec pile again, re checked all of them, 3 were now OOD and re submitted them all again. I tried my yahoo address - does anyone know wether its yopmail addresses that it won't recognise or is that theory still improved as yet?
    Also did my big transfer with TC, £30 in points being a combination of snappy clicky things and a couple of Premier Inn and Travelodge bookings and the cats flea and worming tablets orders.
    it feels a bit like being at school and as you did not complete your assignment satisfactorily you have to stay behind after class to catch up :(
    Anyway now I have I can caught up I can go and play :T

    Youngest son in a moment of boredom he has tidied my store under the stairs and one of the kitchen cupboards so I am now fit for inspection :D Wine store is a bit low, we could do with a double discount day and a few more Bavaria bottles would be helpful.

    I watched Adam Hills' rant about Joan Rivers on The Last Leg last night, well said that man! I particularly like "you're making jokes about the way she (Adele) looks when you're so insecure about your own face you've spent more money on it than the producers of Life of Pi spent on that tiger." :T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T:T

    Have just (well before tea) had a phone call from adsa CS re my email Thurs night. Nice chap - he said he didn't know where the staff got the 'no printed vouchers' malarky from and apologised and couldn't explain why my apg didn't come up with 9 items (lol could have been due to the crisp glitch and me forgetting to add an extra item :cool:) and is going to send me £5 gift voucher :D

    Also huge thanks to whoever mentioned imutual earlier - it didn't work for me last time so I gave it another go with a different email and it worked :j:T
