    loving your choice of songs for your mam's send off. The last one will put smiles on everyone's faces, and if it doesn't they obviously didnt know your mam well! Love the reasons for all the songs as well.

    I think it's very helpful to do something like this. Think about what's right and why it's right and what it means. Your post sounds like doing the songs and the eulogy has been a positive thing for you....that's really nice to read :A

    Just out of interest can I ask how small peeps print their APGs

    I reduce by 75% and get 2 to a page, they measure approx 4" x 4"

    Is that what most people do?

    Just thinking about saving ink:)

    As they print full page size when I print directly from my iPhone, as I had a few today I emailed all the results to myself and then put all the vouchers in a Word document, resized each to fit 6 on a page (landscape, 3 x 2 rows). It printed fine/clear, bar code still worked, no eyebrows raised by CS.

    I admit it is easier just to print but I am getting fed up with them printing so large - surely they could set the default print size to smaller and be kinder to the environment (and our ink/paper budget ;))?

    :( I hope you chose national ruxpin. Kwik fit are a rip off. National are very good. I went there for a new tyre. They were very honest and told me I didn't need one, I had a repairable puncture.....£17.50 instead if £51 :T......I have a shocking kwik fit exhaust story, but I'll save it :D

    nice to see you getting back into things :D

    Yeah we chose National, they were good to be fair.

    Afraid I'm saying Hi and Goodnight in the same message again tonight. Been busy, did 3x HH shops at T's and assisted my sister with 2 (she gets it wrong when I leave her to it). She had a nightmare at the till, she handed them 3 finest coupons at the till on a meal deal shop and they ripped them up in front of her cause they said they were fraudulent as they had the same barcode!!! I 3 tills down had no problem using my 3 coupons:o

    Then I went to A's and did a cheese/yog shop. Thank you so much to everyone who contributed to this glitch, I now have 6 cheeses so that will save me lots over the next month or so:D

    Sweet glitchy dreams all xx

    On the subject of messing with the APG....probably not connected but I had to uninstall and re- install my As app on my iPad tonight as it was up to it's 10 receipt limit. When I re- installed it, the new option to scan the receipt isn't there anymore :huh: it just went straight to type the barcode in like it used to. Like I said probably not connected, but more fiddling maybe?

    I use the iPhone app and haven't formally hit the 10 limit (currently running the scan version)?

    I have processed more than 10 in the past two days without any issue and had actually forgotten there was a 10 per month limit, to be honest :o - I am not recommending it though, as I was busy scrolling down to October to find the receipt breakdown (and probably should delete and re-install to delete incriminating evidence :cool:.

    I've never had the dreaded ' you have reached your limit' message. I regularly uninstall and re- install to avoid it. I have it on my phone as well....which I forget about :o
