De vere - naughty naughty!
Just a quick warning, I'm not sure this is allowed... I booked some rooms at a De Vere hotel over the phone, directly with the hotel. I paid with my visa debit card for my account which is in my name only, not a joint acc. All fine, no probs. My husband then phoned the same hotel to make a reservation on the same night for…

40 stone lady
After reading the story about the 40 stone mum who was rescued from her home by firefighters, I was amazed at how this poor lady could be left like that. How many times do the authorities need to fail before they actually sort themselves out!

Tesco overcharging for petrol?
Evening all. When calling at my local tesco for petrol recently I have noticed the price has been 120.9p/litre for about 2weeks or more and it still is.

Hi I'm Calling From Sky
This morning i received a call unknown number.
