Will people who work with children get fed up of doing a covid test at home
My missus is a dinner lady and when she went into work friday she was given a covid test kit to do the test twice a week but after watching my missus do the test I don't think people will do the test as it's to much messing about with the test then she needs to email her employer with the results.

Quickie Divorce shysters
Anyone else had dealings with these people? I paid £347 for them to do the paperwork for me. Then I was asked for another £550 for court fees which I couldn't afford so I requested a refund. Or at least a partial one which was refused. It should be a simple case as husband deported 12 years ago. Not sure who to turn to for…

Delivery rants for online shopping
As avid online shoppers, myself and my other half have had our fair share of really bad delivery experiences. Rant #1: Why does the driver ALWAYS knock on the door when I'm in the middle of something!?

Hi. I am writing about these sausage rolls, the pack of 50 at 49p They are quite small, the size of a matchbox but they are devine. You don't get heartburn after like the ones from Greggs the baker. Not sure what is in them, it's not sausage but it does taste like it is. Thank you much Farmfoods.

Avoid being fleeced for mail order
Like many older people, my Mother can't get out as much as she used to and, not being internet savvy, likes to be independent and order clothes by phone from Cotton Traders. This is a good company, selling clothes, shoes etc, aimed at those over 50, which sends glossy catalogues by post on a regular basis and allows…

Netflix scam
I got an email today to my inbox rather than the spam folder proporting to be from Netflix and they were telling me that my subscription expires in 2 days and I should renew it now and get a discount. All well and good but I don't now and never will have a Netflix subscription. I hate emails like that.
