    If a woman had designed it she'd have made one BIG roundabout instead of 5 piddling little ones in a circle. :p:p

    So you see guys......size DOES matter ;)
    very quick whitted lol
    when i was seven [STRIKE]43[/STRIKE] 33 yrs ago it was just one big roundabout, the queues to it were lengthy. so it has worked well. but i agree our town has got a fetish for roundabouts and put them everywhere, and even more annoyingly they put crossings or bus stops as you leave them.

    Talking about roundabouts, I don't drive but I do cycle. I also actively avoid roundabouts mainly because I used a biggish one (Clockhouse roundabout in Farnborough to those in the know) once and wanted to turn right, so went into the inner lane as you do. I had to go round it 9 times :eek: before anyone would let me off, and then I had to get off at the wrong exit and walk round!!!

    The pricees compare on the date of the purchase. You'd better be quick though, you only have two weeks from date of purchase to get the receipt in!

    Really, have they changed it then?

    I thought it was 28 days :think:

    Were you thinking of how long you have to get clubcard points added?

    Evening everyone

    Just got back in so thought i would say quick hello before reading back on what i have missed today

    Hope everyone is okay and enjoying the weather. :kisses: to everyone that needs some hugs and kisses (sorry could not find the hugs smiley and not doing the threesome one)

    Just a quick question to all you JTD experts (as i must admit i am a bit of a novice to this). If i bought an item twio weeks ago and do the price check now will the comparable price at other stores be now or when i bought the item, Reason i am asking is because i bought item when it was cheaper in A but lost the receipt. Found it today but item is now same price in A as when item was bought in T. Hope this makes sense.

    Michjay x

    It's on the day of purchase and I thought you had 28 days too?

    Thanks for your nice comments, I started seeing my new man a couple of weeks ago :eek: but we went to a mate's bbq yesterday and was like he had known them all for ages, not weird at all. It's kind of weird that it's not weird if that makes sense - I guess that's a good thing!

    And no I don't smell of Harpic lol with all my wombling I can treat myself to something nicer - like Parozone maybe...:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    :) Learn from the past, enjoy and appreciate the present and work to make your future the best it can possibly be :)

    And get lots of glitches!

    That's the one - have a 50 pointer in my purse that I wombled the other day, didn't dare get it added as I'd just used my clubcard on the SS (that's where I picked it up!!).
