I want!

My son had one of these which was already in his flat when he moved in - he thought it was absolutely fab - so much so my daughter demanded one when she moved into her flat - bought it online - choice of lengths and widths and worth every penny!!
Mind you my daughter has since progressed to a heated clothes airer from lakeland - and wouldn't be without that either!! Both MUCH cheaper than a tumble dryer!!!

S&G was working before at the same time as the shampoo APG glitch I'm sure:cool:We definately need some combination shops tried;)I seem to remember buying them all around the same time:)

S&G has always been a mystery because it doesn't show on MSM as comparing anywhere at 20p but I do remember chucking them in the trolley when the skincare was comparing to T's at 10p :j:j:j that was just before the A's superglitch :j:j:j

I remember at the time thinking that 32p for the skincare and shampoo was expensive against W's as we were getting them for 10p against T with a SP hair gel lol, still got a ton of those!

From TV licensing website:



So the "address where you live" is your parent's address as proved by a) having a room there, b) being there a lot c) being on the electoral register d) address for bank statements etc e) registered home address with the uni.

"outside your home" can include your uni room, common room and anywhere else.

"any device" includes laptops

"powered solely by its own internal batteries" which is how laptops work - plugging in charges the batteries up and that is what they run off.

So the only requirement is that the parent's home needs a licence.

I just read back and found that others had put in proper detail like silvercar's post above.

The trick is if anyone's daft enough to let the license people include to make sure the laptop's not plugged into the wall power socket.

There's a thread elsewhere about a guest staying at someone's house who got done for watching the tele without realising it wasn't licensed. Although why he answered the door is anybody's guess. the detector vans can't pinpoint inside big buildings IIRC.

Much of their door-to-door searches are just from pre-existing address lists, and the university halls are automatically on those lists.

Sainsbobs - Punch Pockets - 100 pockets for 34p each pack

Just been out to drop DH off to the station and popped into sainsbobs on the way back.

100 pack of punch pockets marked on the shelf at £1.49 (half price offer), scans at 69p then takes off 35p. I bought 10 packs for £3.45. BC ends 0683.

I thought I saw this offer on our thread yesterday and trawled through to thank OP but can't find it. It's definitely on HUKD as I've just seen it, probably where I saw it initially.

Also just seen this on HUKD 40 piece bag sealers for 99p at Argos, thanks to philmitchell over on the dark side. Ideal for half opened bags of pasta etc. None in my area for store pick up, but might help someone

Lol at all the sayings! When we used to ask mom what was for tea the answer was "ifit!"

My mom is VERY black country and so fond of the word c o c k as a term of endearment. Sayings such as "put a coat on ya c o c k, you'll get cold!" & "what do ya want to eat c o c k?" have been know to be said on a regular basis! The reply soon became "nar! Sandwich will do me fine!" to the second one.

I appologise if that offends by the way, you'd run screaming if you ever paid the black country a visit!

I also get called wench on a daily basis!

My Nan used to call everyone "Duck" as a term of endearment, must be something to do with birds:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
