    Details received and noted :)


    I'm not going to put it on facebook- there are enough people from all groups over here now, if they wanted to donate, they'd know who to come to and what they needed to do


    I dont know of any other groups though :o There has been a couple of donations from people on the coupon thread :) We've had donations from self exiled Elite too :) I've had requests on facebook too so word is getting around :)


    We've done really well for the collection. We're getting our ELITE flowers :T






    If anyone hasnt donated and would still like to, please PM me for the details. If I dont get back to you straight away, its because I am working, but I will get back to you


    Anything that is left over from the flowers will be sent to the hospice :A

    I haven't donated towards the flowers myself because me and two other real life friends of mads are sending our own flowers. Just a thought though, how about having MSE instead of ELITE, which would obviously work out cheaper but would incorporate all the groups and people who have donated and know/knew mad. I think the suprlus money donated to the hospice is a fab idea, I am sure that they will appreciate it and it will be going to help people in his home town.
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)

    Morning all! Maybe T would be better off acquiring foot recognition software, not facial? :rotfl:

    lutzi, dont think you can use the mag ones for visa and tesco:mad:


    That's fine bubbs thanks, (though a shame :(), I got that, I was just hoping the old 150 points offer hadn't finished. I love the online Visa cards. :D
    Hope is not a strategy.

    Wouldn't you need to buy 12 bottles as it's 25% of 6 bottles.

    The 25% off is on 6 bottles or more, not multiples of 6. So as long as you buy a minimum of 6 it doesn't matter HTH

    Happy birthday fc and Aau1, have a great day.

    If anyone likes sherry the T pale cream sherry is very similar to Crofts Original IMHO (and very nice chilled). £6.60 a litre - 25% = £4.95 a litre - bargain!
    Hope is not a strategy.

    Have a great day
