    Does anyone know what I can do with a DVD of Toy Story 3?
    We got it free and we already have a copy so it's still sealed in it's packaging.
    I've been trying to find somewhere to get rid of it but I can't seem to find anything worth the hassle and trying to offload it onto my friends has so far not worked :D

    Would your local school like it? As its a U rated film all school age children would be able to watch it. My daughters class at school often have movie afternoons...if they have completed their work and filled their marble jar.:rotfl:

    Just read above...bet me!!

    Well I had a look at the alternatives and there arent any.

    We are nowhere near Virgin fibre optics so we would end up with broadband down the phone line again.

    I also had a look at BT infinity and that also is never going to happen and the 2 options they offered were gob smacking prices.

    Also our phone line is not BT now we would have to pay £45 to switch

    At the moment we are all sky - unlimited phone calls to geographical numbers for £5 a month, sky TV and one entertainment channel, unlimited broadband. I paid line rental upfront a year in advance so the monthly bill for everything now is about £40 (including the few non geographical calls, mobile numbers etc)
    You know that but Sky dont, they will have a good idea (virgin man knew what I could get and at what prices) but on principle and to have a stable connection for your work you will have to move.;)
    Get onto sky stop messing about :rotfl:

    Just been out for lunch with my sister. Popped into Mr M on the way home and got a lovely bunch of mothers day flowers down from £20.00 to £4.99. They had loads and loads. Might pop back later when they have gone down a bit more.

    Oh I had to laugh when I read that. Fortunately I don't have any tattoos and don't want any.:eek: I did have a fleeting fancy about 10 years ago to have a nice small jewel in the side of my nose but that desire soon went. :D

    I have 3 tattoos :eek:. Piercings in my ears (8) and one in navel. Did have my tongue pierced once but it swelled up so much I had to take it out!

    Just realised that may make people think I'm covered in things, I'm not honest ;)
