DH has just come in from our garage and brought with him 4 bottles of homemade wheat wine :eek: :eek: Dare I tell you it must have been sitting there for about 7 or 8 years :eek: When I made it it had to be left for 12 months before it was ready to drink :j
Maybe I had better ask him to try it before I dare but it would have gone off, will it ?

Oh well off I go ............................ back in 10 mins or so

Me again i would imagine it might be easier to come off at junction 12 rather than 11 as coming from 11 to festival site will take you along the road right outside it and would imagine very busy hth
if you need any info please feel free to pm me:)

Thinking about it, this might not be so "wee" after all.

I did a fresh install of Mountain Lion but we're going to try and trick Coupon Printer in to working by making it think you've done a fresh install.

The following may or may not work, it may also work for some but not for others. If this doesn't work then the only other thing I can suggest is a full clean install. If enough people want to go down this route then I may do a guide for it.

1. Uninstall Coupon Printer if you have it on your system, and I don't mean by dragging it to the trash can and emptying it. On ML (Lion isn't much different. Snow Leopard should be easier) Click on 'Finder' in your dock (bottom left, the square face) and a window will open up. Down the left hand side of that window click on 'Applications' (if that folder isn't there under SL it should be on your dock, if not, you're going to have to locate it by typing "Applications" in to the little magnifying glass at the top right of your screen). In the Applications folder there should be a folder called 'Coupons'. Open it and in there will be the tool to uninstall CP. At this point you're going to have to quit the browsers you are using, closing the windows won't quit the browser. You need to two finger tap on the browser (Safari etc) and select quit. Double click on the CP uninstall tool and let it do what it needs to do. (A)The coupon folder may not be in the applications folder on Lion, instead, you need to click on Launchpad (in your dock) and you will see all your apps, somewhere on one of those screens or in a folder you will see the uninstall tool, again, quit your browsers and run it.

2. Uninstall your printer. Depending how you initially installed this there will be two different ways to uninstalling. The first one would be to do (A) above and this time look for your printer software and folders, look for anything that will uninstall the printer. Once done, any icons that are left will need to be sent to the trash. To do this, click on Finder, open the Applications folder again and drag and drop all the printer related items to the trash can. Be careful to check any folders to make sure nothing that shouldn't have has installed itself in them. The second way of uninstalling your printer if you don't have the necessary items the last way is to...

Click on the apple logo at the top left of your screen.

Click on System Preferences

Click on Print & Scan

Two finger tap on the printer at the left hand side and select 'Reset Printing System

Click on your printer down the left hand side and hit the - button below it.

3. Uninstall Flash, this is going to be a bit trickier as Flash make it difficult to uninstall their carp. Click on the Magnifier symbol at the top right of your screen. Type in to it Flash and hopefully one of the things that will be listed will be "Adobe Flash Player Install Manager" click on it and you should be presented with an uninstall wizard. Follow the instructions in the wizard and when finished restart your Mac.

4. Number 4 was going to be instructions to uninstall Java, but I'm not going there as it's going to be too difficult.

Now to put everything back. This is how we are going to attempt to trick coupon printer as all it's necessary components are going to be freshly installed. JumbleJack, if you get your Mac back with a clean install then you can follow from here.:beer:

1A. On Lion, if you haven't already got Java downloaded you will need to download it from here.. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1515?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US (that's the newest version I can find)

1B. On ML you need to click on Launchpad, and find the folder called "Other" and look for the Coffee Cup icon click on it and follow the instructions to download and install it. If you click on it and it tells you it's already installed then good enough.

2. Reinstall Flash - Go to the SSM website and down the left hand side of the page you will see in tiny writing something about Flash. Click on it and it will take you to the correct page for downloading and installing the correct version. During the install process Flash will prompt you to quit certain things, you can either do it manually or have the installer do it for you.

3. Restart your Mac

4. Reinstall your printer, if it's Wireless, switch it on and follow the instructions on how to uninstall your printer but instead of pressing - you want to press +. Your Mac should see the printer and will prompt your to download and install the software for it. If it's not wireless plug in the USB, cancel out any pop up windows that may appear as do as above.

5. Restart your Mac (you shouldn't have to do restart a Mac everytime you install/uninstall something but if your going to all this bother you may as well do it rather not doing it and something get messed up:()

6. Go back to the SSM website and go the relevant part to get your coupons. Do the necessary and click on the 'Get Coupon Printer' and it will download. Very important - Before installing CP make sure you close all open pages and fully quit any browsers.

7. Install Coupon Printer as you normally would. If a 'disc' has appeared on your desktop that is related to CP after installing it click on it once then press cmd+E. Doing this will eject the 'disc' and you can send the Coupon Printer .dmg file to the trash. Empty the trash.

8. Restart your Mac.

9. Test by trying to print a coupon.

Poor HC. You seem to have spent the whole day trying to get this sorted:o

I picked up some typically ikea sized ones this morning for 20p each. 30 x 50cm. Ideal for when I go cycling or fast walking

I can't be doing with little towels, by the time I dry my beer gut they are soaking wet.:eek::rotfl:

Thanks to Kadison for the tip-off of the ladies Ultras in Boots, got 8 packs at 18p. The SEL said 18p in my store, and they were in the normal place, not in a clearance section. There were some other reductions as well, including the 'tubs' of lil-lets for 45p (marked with clearance stickers on the tubs)

I also got 3 of the half price No 7 face powders, and the 3 for 2 kicked in as well ....making it 3 for £12!

Plus I did the fragrance for point and bought a cologne water £4.39, a rose water £4.39, a 50ml So Brit £3.93 (sel £5.24) and a 100ml So Me £3.75 (sel £4.99) and I got 2000 extra points.
