Newspaper competitions are fake?
Is it me, or are newspaper competitions fake or rigged? Some of the big newspapers (Sun, Mirror, Mail, Express) provide various competitions in the form of scratch cards, bingos, draw of the hats and phone calls. No matter how much I take part in the competitions, I don't win. Then again, that's down to my bad luck.…

Anyone used Allied Carpets to install wooden flooring?
I have someone coming around from Allied Carpets this weekend to give me a quote for the installation of wooden flooring and wondered if anyone has used them before? I'm planning to have the work done on the lounge and hallway - a fairly small area as the property is a small flat. I see they have a 5 year guarantee for all…

Banks phasing out cheques?
The proposal by Banks is that cheques will disappear sometime in 2018, but some banks are saying they will no longer guarantee cheques, (even when a debit card is shown) after June this year.
