    Out of interest do any of our glitches reach you at the same time ... e.g. 1p mini eggs/lindt eggs etc

    I don't think so. T€sco Ireland work their own system. A !uro system. The pricing structure is very different. We are massively overcharged for groceries in general here. There are only a handful of national supermarkets that have it really good, T!sco only arrived here about 10 years ago and shook things up a little. But instead of offering true value they align themselves with the other thieving ba8tards and are happy to make massive margins.

    They make higher margins here than almost anywhere they trade worldwide. It sucks. ok rant over.

    So that is why i lurk and learn, please forgive me that i can contribute little.

    So, many of the offers are similar, ie The Big Clean thing, but pricing is aligned to our rubbish competition.

    If they are half as good as you (your malibu shop earlier post) then it won't take them long to find the glitches here! I'm sure they are there!

    One thing I have noticed about the new look forum is that at the bottom of each post it now says:

    X users say thank you for this useful post

    but it used to say something like:

    X users say thank you to Fudge_Cake for this useful post

    It's not a big thing but some of the posts are quite long and by the time you get to the bottom you can't see who wrote it. I don't always look at the beginning of the post to see who wrote it but by the time I get to the end, depending on what has been said I may then want to know the author so now I need to scroll up.

    As I said it is only a small thing but it is annoying me already and I can't see any good reason for the change.

    I'm definitely still seeing the old interface then cos this is what I see.

    Oh no ... I can't take credit for the Malibu ... this was a magic find by Dopey_Sleepy_Grumpy who posted details of her shop earlier today

    3dogs - hope all goes ok for you, and also to any others who have poorly loved ones I hope things get better for you all.

    We were called in to hospital on Friday evening to be told that was the end for my grandad and it was time to be around him, he'd have 12-24 hours before he would leave us, he was totally unconcious and struggling to breathe

    We started to question the care that had been given as there'd been so many !!!! ups from the nurses and doctors, this doctor then decided to change the treatment on the offchance it may work.... things started to look up, then my grandad was moved from the god awful ward he was on to a specialist lung ward....

    He's now doing ok, still serious but no longer critical, he's conscious and able to talk, it was so good to hear him tell me he loved me and to hold my hand!

    So a bit of advice to you.... if you ever have doubts about treatment, the care being given etc, question it, don't feel that you shouldn't ask questions, question everything!!

    I agree whole-heartedly, you don't get anything or anywhere in hospitals or care homes unless you pester them :(
    also whats the film where someone writes their addy in a book and gives it to a 2nd hand shop and says if its meant to be the person who they are interested in will find it i think they are in different countries? sorry turning toights theme into a movie quiz arent i:o

    It was called Serendipity :j :j :j :j

    I'm using it and it's fab hon. Printer is sitting in the corner, plugged in, turn on, paper ready to go so when I need to print a MOC (usually just as I'm about to head out the door), no need to find cables or put paper in - just print wirelessly! The cartridges are pretty cheap as well if you look in the right places. Will drop you a PM about them (totally legit, not a Nutts Corner job :D)

    I agree , great printer. Mine ran out of colour ink so wouldn't print so I just took out the colour cartridge and now it still prints but just in black. Got more ink but will wait till black runs out before replacing.
    If your on about getting the ink direct ;) then I'm not sure that works anymore as my last order was cancelled, along with others from hukd. :(
    :(
