    Hello

    I recently had a carpet fitted (Saturday just gone!) from Moburn Carpets in Stony Stratford. It's owned by a man and wife team who were incredibly helpful and gave brilliant suggestions on colours, types of carpets; etc. without feeling pressured. The fitter arrived and was incredibly friendly and did an excellent job. Good quality carpets for good prices!

    Try them....


    G

    P.S. I do not work for them by the way!!

    Poundland in Bletchley have ink cartridges for Epson and Canon priced at just one pound each.

    Tesco (Kingston) are doing Mullerice and 'Healthy Balance' yogs at half price of 19p each.

    Also, in Kingston, they're discontinuing their toffee ripple ice cream tubs, 2l is currently down to 50p. Tesco own brand frozen Cornish pasties were also available for around 20p a box (for two, I think)... might've been 50p tops.

    Can't vouch for Wolverton or Bletchley, I'm afraid.

    Tesco Bletchley has the above-mentioned MullerRice at 19p.

    Quick question,

    I know you can get photcopying done, is there somewhere in MK you can get some documents scanned?

    Try also Staples across from the hockey stadium. They have a very good business services counter. Simma, I didn't realize that you are so well read.

  • Does the bootsale at the Bowl still take place on Sundays, or do they close for the winter?

    Pretty sure the boot sale's still taking place.

    I use the H7 a lot, was driving across to Westcroft last weekend on Sunday and there was a lot of traffic in and out of the Bowl... can only assume that was for the boot sale!
