It's time to tame that mountain range of loose papers as far as I'm concerned. Although there may have been some method to it before the builder's invasion, there isn't now:D

I may be some time....

HELP!

I've got an Aussie mate flying to UK at the end of the week - I've got a mobile no for her but it's only 10 digits - and her PC has packed up!

I've tried to text her to confirm our arrangements but the text won't send. Is there something I need to add (international code?) to get this to work?

I don't have her home number..and I can't afford to ring her mobile.......

Many thanks

Cyclingyorkie

It is 13p per min to ring a mobile in Aussie!! from a land line in this country so even if you chat for 10mins it is £1.30 and be strict with the 10 mins or what ever.

Pm with link on its way, it is the one I use to ring asia at 1p per min !! I use to ring my best mate in Canada for 2p per min..!! we use to chat for 60mins = £1.20p bargain!

Have you tried an international online directory enquiries for the house number?

Pigpen~~ I was just wondering who you had added to your brood, when I saw quaverface! :rotfl:I guess it must be DD3 or 4 or 5, I need a family tree to help me!! :rotfl::rotfl:

I have managed to delete a few from today's list.

My bedroom has become a dumping ground recently so I am going to hide myself away for an hour and blitz it.
