Kids on the block

Costa vent
Pop into Costa to buy 2 takeaway summer berry fruit coolers. Hand over my points (now called 'beans') card as I have enough to get 1 drink free. Assistant snaps "can't use that you must have the app". Bit odd as the cards OR app are both acceptable for collecting & redeeming purposes, but I don't argue in case Costa rules…

Homebase website
As anyone else ordered wall tiles from Homebase on the website. I have ordered what I thought was 15 square meters but only received 15 boxes. When looking back now I get what I have done but it isn’t clear when ordering. Not sure what to do now as tiles have gone out of sale and delivery was £30 rip off.

Avoid RAC breakdown
Not a regular on this board, but I wanted to share this recent experience of the RAC's breakdown. I drive a 2003 car that's on its last legs. It seemed sensible to have breakdown bundled with the insurance as it will, inevitably, break down. And soon. It's had a couple of hiccups in recent years and the AA (bundled with…

Vent! Pollution from electrified railway line.
We recently moved and there is a railway line at the bottom of the garden, we realised there would be noise but as the line is electric thought we would not get the sort of pollution we could get from a main road. However the large goods trains use old smokey diesels and the smell when they pass is awful. Do these engines…
