    £3 in iceland on 3 tins of soup, some coffee whitener and a toothbrush.

    But I don't really count it as my spending as it came from the joint account. So is counted as household spending.


    For christmas present what about a nice box of choccies. Sainsburys have terrys all gold plain and milk for £3.98 for two boxes. And they some bottles of sparkling wine for £2.99 a bottle and that is suppose to be half price.

    No other ideas as I am struggling for my gran as she lives in a old peoples home. So has no real needs and is not interested in much. Box of jelly sweets and a couple of hankies me thinks.


    Yours

    James, does your brother like gadgets? If so try, https://www.firebox.com or https://www.iwantoneofthose.com

    For my Nan, I was thinking maybe an animal adoption from lastminute.com as can't think of anything else, but the order deadline is pretty soon I think (possibly tomorrow)

    For Grandad, I have bought whiskey.

    Hello GonnaDoIT,

    Try this as a first step..... If your number 3 key has a hash sign above the 3 then press <Shift> 3 ... see if that produces a £ sign in a document.

    If not, then we will have to look to see what type of keyboard you have and whether or not it is set up for English/UK in <Start><Settings><Regional Options>. You may want to check the settings anyway.

    Hope this helps.
