    Sammy - I had a really bad smell coming from my fridge recently and despite cleaning it inside and out, round the back and the grills etc nothing stopped it. So then I tried using baking soda/bicarb, cleaning every shelf and the inside and out, and I also put a little pot of bicarb in the corner of the fridge and it seems to have gone. Might be worth a try?

    I 'think' its sorted....my fridges overflow seems to congregate into a little tray at the back of the fridge. I cleaned that and its not that.

    I think it was stale water that was sitting in my washing machine and was leaking onto my floor in the kitchen. Man has been to mend my washing machine....one of DD2's gel bra inserts had blocked - and broken - the pump......grrrrrr....no idea how much yet..he has fixed it so i can use it for the minute and will order me a new pump..

    Just got back from a wander round the village. Did some errands, and picked up the girls after having a mooch round a local car showroom which sells KAs. Snotty git obviously didn't think I could afford a car and looked down his nose at me the whole time. Grrrrrrrr..

    won't be buying from him then will you...although I would be very tempted when you are buying to go in and tell them exactly why you won't be buying from them....

    I need to pay into my parents account -anyone know how without going to a branch (they all shut before I can get there) its a co-op account if that makes any difference and i bank with Natwest....

    Some banks do faster payments and I think Natwest is one of those that do...worth a call to ask first though.

    Sammy is right Becky, I am with Natwest and all their payments out are F/P. On your online banking go to Payments, then add/view/amend a payee, add your parents account details etc and then send the money. It should show in their account today but if not before tommorow night :D

    Going to the Hospital to see if can get a facelift:rotfl:....no, honestly! My Grandad had eyebrows which 'drooped' a bit and mine will go the same way...its collagen breakdown evidently....so I'm getting in NOW so that I can make a big play of it and get them done for free! I cant afford £2000!

    Apart from that, Bristol meet and .....dunno, lots of walking, maybe fishing?
    Mrs P isn't off too though, so:confused:

    I cant do that as I dont have a card reader (and I refuse to use one as they wont tell me what happens if I enter the wrong code into it)

    Can I do that in person at branch?? Or do I have to pay a fee?
