    A collector in America was sending me vodka, which is over the 24%. However, without opening the box, how would Royal Mail know? ;)

    And that's for in and out of the country, yet alcohol over 24% is permitted domestically from what I can work out..

    how would Royal Mail know? ;) = x-ray scanner thingy machine :(

    Anyone who is not having a Romantic Valentine Tryst :happylove tonight ;)something to watch channel 4 at 8pm Britain's Secret Shoppers could make good viewing for an hour:T

    With Hugh for dessert.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Good spot, Nanny, although on second thoughts, the two main characters are not a mother and daughter are they? Is the daughter nicknamed after a Teletubby?:cool:
  • Just got my multi buy apg back and nothing glitching per se but I bought 4 bottles of beer for DH which were 3 Newcastle brown (there on the quidco scan and save) plus a pedigree. Should have been 4 for £5 but the apg has not recognised the pedigree in that it is not even on the list so charged the newky brown at £1.80 each compared to £5 for the 3 to T. Not sure why but may help someone. Thanks to whoever mentioned the toothbrush earlier. They are actually on 2 for £3 but couldn't remember the compare so only got 1 to be on safe side.

    There will be good sampling- of the pancake type :j

    Would be rude not to sample a couple of local delicacies though, although that's not my main reason for going :cool:
