Everyone welcome. Come and meet some new friends. :D

    Hi everyone. The brownies will be ready in a few minutes.

    Elantan - What is the latest news with your car. You were having a bit of a panic last week.

    Lenny - did I imagine you hosting a party a few weeks ago. Or did someone delete the thread?
    Of course blokes are welcome ( so long as they behave:rotfl: )

    Well...on Monday night I was having one of those "shall I? shan't I?" moments. Tesco had beer & cider on special offer and the offer finished yesterday. I had 1000 extra points on an online shop code and couldn't make my mind up if to buy £60 worth of beer & cider and get £40 back in clubcard deals. In the end I decided to go for it.
    Now the good bit... instead of sending me 4 x 18 cans of cider they sent me 1 x 12 cans and 1 x 24 cans. So I rang customer service to tell them there was a mistake with my order and they have refunded me all the money I paid for the cider, let me keep the 36 cans they delivered and credited me the 1000 points. :j :j :j
    How good is that? :D:D :T
