Greetings all from Cyprus....:beer:
Found me an internet cafe so that I could get my DFW and MSE fix....plus I feel sorry for myself...broke my finger 3 minutes after I got to my villa :rolleyes:
Starting to wonder why I've annoyed LTSB so much though...told last week that I had to go and show proofs at a branch (sorry can't find the thread now), and that everyone had to do it - which is rubbish (as demonstarted by all those kind DFW who told me they didn't know what I was talking about.
Now, I get to Cyprus, and go to a cashpoint to check my balance, and it tells me that my card is CANCELLED! :mad: Why? How?...I don't know, cos I can't get through on the phone!
Arrrggghhhhh...good job I'd already budgeted for my holiday money and I already have it isn't it!!
(Sorry bout spelling, but one hand isn't working lol :rotfl: )
