This is just plain wierd.
I see today that teachers are complaining that they don't understand the marking system of the new GCSEs. I don't understand their problem. If a child gets 40% in an exam they still get 40% if the mark is called an A* or a 4. It is only the grade name that has changed. So what is the problem? Why is that so difficult to…

Senses Club - Same-sex relationship discrimination
I just registered for Senses Club (for women only). I was very disappointed that when I selected 'Married' that the next screen referenced my husband. Wikipedia: 'The legislation to allow same-sex marriage in England and Wales was passed by the Parliament of the United Kingdom in July 2013 and came into force on 13 March…

Clarks shoes, brand new, rotting in their thousands - check your wardrobes now!
Check your cupboards and wardrobes for any Clarks shoes you might have put away for later use - even if they're brand new. You'll probably find that they're rotting away, leaving a sticky gooey mess where you thought there was a nice new pair of shoes. Take a look at this video: https://youtu.be/BUKSxV_6ZHU There's a…

Sofa and Furniture Retailers
Is there ever a time when DFS etc. do not have a sale on??? Why can't they just give genuine prices and stop claiming to give enormous discounts. Does anyone ever pay the supposed price if there wasn't a "sale".

Sainsbury's Delivery Pass warning
The money-saving tip is this: if Sainsbury's deliver your groceries and you have a Delivery Pass, then it's a good idea to check your receipts. On two occasions recently, we have been charged for delivery even though we have a valid Pass. I have rung up on both occasions and received a refund, but doing this is tiresome.…

Warning/Vent Plusnet's terrible service!
After Life was taken over from Plusnet I saw a rapid deterioration of service: poor signal, slow internet, unclear charges, terrible customer service and distorted calls that dropped. However, the worst issues started two weeks ago when I and many others stopped being able to receive incoming calls and texts, and Plusnet…

Zeek Issues
Hi, Has anyone else had problems with Zeek - the gift card marketplace? My first two purchases went through OK as did my mother's first one. Then we got my Dad to sign up too and he didn't receive his code - instead it said "contact support". Two e-mails and 3 days later they responded saying they needed copies of his…

A&Es will be busy this weekend
The busy bank holiday times for A&E aren't surprising when you consider GPs' 'opening hours'. I rang ours, today, to speak to the pharmacist, but was told he isn't in today (yet he takes minor surgery, instead of one of the doctors), but I can speak to him on Tuesday (which will be too late). Today is half closing day…

Wish shopping app
I would just like to make sure that when shopping on the Wish app that you do your research. Items on the app have prices and prices that the item should be. In most cases items can be 90% of the list price, which is where I'm asking buyers to do their research as you can be buying fakes and in some cases dangerous fakes…

What I am worried about is this: I I went to one of the Curry's retail shops in London to see the monitor on display. Guys there run the label via their internal system and told me that the monitor…

vent - smart phones at gigs, all the time
just been to 2 gigs in the last week.:j Great music, but the constant mobile phone recording was a pain. IMHO for every one person who does it - they are 2 others who don't. What was good was that the bands told the smart crowd to put down the phones and live in the moment.:T Oh. and has anyone told anyone else to put down…
