    Hope hubby recovers soon bubbs. Sounds like you are describing my mums flat. Imagine it being hot outside in the summer then you walk into flat and its just as hot. Think heating in flats got turned off 3 weeks last summer.
    So do i he is driving me crazy:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: thats stupid with how hot it was last year!
    My GP said yesterday that if virus had not cleared up by next week to go back. Needless to say I am keeping everything crossed that its gone :( don't think it helps when we keep going from warm to cold atmospheres and vice versa. Can you not adjust your heating settings as it is probably not helping your OH if the atmosphere is too drying?

    :mad: some comedian has just suggested I need rubbing down with a buttered brick - excuse me while I just go and slap him :D

    We have turned it off but there is a big pipe that runs the length of the hotel and this is red hot cant turn that off, but good for warming plates:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    I think that is the problem the air is too dry.
    I hope you gave hime a good slap:rotfl::rotfl:

    :rotfl: :rotfl: I just got on the bus and rather loudly told a school kid to take her feet off the seat so I could sit down and then proceeded to wipe her mud off the seat with a tissue :rotfl:

    But now the skanky little skanks seem to have not been taught to eat with their mouths closed so I feel a grumpy old woman moment coming on :rotfl:

    Go QOC go!! teach them some manners:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    They need it. They are cathedral school kids who think that the world owes them a living. They're all playing on their iPhones and talking about their iPads and spoilt kid stuff. They've got no idea of what life in the real world is like :mad:

    But another little one, probably about 8 or 9 just brushed past me as he was getting off, and apologised profusely, without any encouragement from his mum :T

    Hi everyone :)

    Another M & S question....for those in the know!

    If you use the M & S voucher and a Green Redeem voucher, I understand you put them in before pressing the total button...

    ...but what if you also have a M & S e-coupon to use (one I got from the recent bespoke offers promotion) - will I be able to scan this to pay for the balance with no issues? (ie. call someone over to verify it and possibly see my previous coupons, etc).

    Or should I just play it safe and pay the total with either cash or card?

    Thanks 'fountain of all knowledge' forum :p
    Hi, as far as the M&S e-vouchers are concerned, I have found the vouchers themselves a bit inconsistent. I have only used them for 'normal' shopping - some have scanned no problem but 2 caused no end of problems with refusing to scan. One time (in the clothes dept) the SA even had to change tills to make it work - once they changed to a different till it scanned no prob and the supervisor said that the tills can be temperamental when it comes to evouchers.

    ps Hello everyone :)
