What's this Quidco 'Premium' nonsense???
I got an email from Quidco all pound and excited about the fact that I've been 'selected' for an 'upgrade'... As far as I can tell, the only difference is I have access to live support, a few faster paying shops and (effectively) have to pay £5 a year for the privilege. Is there any point? The basic level looks more…

£8 fees on £30 tickets with Ticketmaster
I bought two £15.00 theatre tickets this evening through Ticketmaster = £30.00. They added £5.00 'service charge' and then another £3.00 'Ticketfast' fee for me to print them on my own printer!

Hastings Thread
What happened to blackguy52's insurance thread about Hastings? I can't see it and it isn't listed in his "other posts" list. Have Hastings thrown a hissy fit and threatened MSE with lawyers? And MSE have taken their usual "head in the sand, delete the thread" approach, rather than showing some cojones? (I received a PM…

Daybreak treats presenter Spain why?
Maybe I have missed something but why does a BBC presenter , a weather girl i believe),have to be presenting from Spain an item (5 mins?) about exercise ? Admittedly I don't usually watch the programme but in general I am sick to death of seeing very poor excuses for jollies for the well connected as they patronisingly…
