Some good advice there although I'd argue that charging your phone up at work is classed as stealing! Same as sending all your post via the company's franking machine!

I use my phone when on call for the hospital/theatres so that could be a good one to use, sorry I didn't get your call, my phone battery was dead as I didn't want to steal from the NHS by charging my phone? Hey might be useful sometime, as I spend alot of time on call.

Checked online banking
Updated my signature
Saved £50 because my osteopath can't get back from SA to make our appointment tomorrow lol

It measures the amount of air going into the engine and tells the car how much fuel to inject and how to formulate the right mixture so it doesnt run rich/lean etc, I'm guessing you had a lack of power or engine warning light on. xNothing to report as yet...give me a minute...!0 -
Cleosmum - hugs - that sounds a bit out of order to be honest.
