    Evening all. I had a Kleenex delivery yesterday. How long does it normally take for the clicksnap/quidco cashback to activate. Nothing showing up on my clicksnap account yet and no email received. (Yes, I did register my Tesco.com login details with them).


    Thanks as always.

    Don't know if this was already answered but I got my hd yesterday morning and it's been approved by quidco today. Hth.

    Racked the Iceland box out of bin and rang Freephone number on it :D.

    Had a moan at women about meal and she sending me a voucher ;)

    I did have a curry and chips for my tea the other night and that was nice and tasty. So not all meals will be yuk.

    I still got a shepherds pie to eat :).

    Hi Elite.....I've posted this in the Arms but thought I would bring it here too to see if anyone has any ideas.



    I have been given the task in work of coming up with a World Cup competition. I did this in my last place of work....everyone had to predict the scores of each match, extra points for correct scorers etc etc. That was easy because they were all football fanatics and happy to spend the time filling out their forms and everyone took a keen interest.
    Here, there are a lot of people interested but I've been told that so much detail would put a lot of people off entering. So my question is if anyone has any ideas of how I could go about getting people interested (and keeping them interested) without it being too much work for them? To me, predicting the scores is actually easier as really it's just a random guessing game.....I'm a girl and I won it for the last World Cup and Euro 96!!
    Also, I don't want to do a straightforward sweepstake where someone gets Brazil and everyone else loses interest.
    Any ideas very gratefully received.....TIA.

    Good morning all.

    Hope everyones taken note of GameOver Zeus? Currently uploading back up files to Dropbox.

    Yahoo email has updated this morning, extremely annoying sponsored "email" shows at the top of the inbox of emails. If anyone has any ideas of how to get rid of this pesky "email" then I'd be grateful to know, short of paying for email service which I refuse to do!

    It can't be deleted like a normal email would be :(

    Off out now to get 2 tyres fitted, ouch :( But needs to be done.

    Good Morning everyone :D

    Nannylala probably not the correct way lol but I've got a splinter out myself by using a pair of nail clippers . just use the corner of them and clip where the splinter is. Can usually get it out then. Put a bit of germolene on and bobs your uncle :)

    That said they reckon splinters come out on their own eventually but I'm not convinced and they can hurt a lot in the meantime can t they.

    I bite them out:D

    I was loading up my van the other day with tesco direct order and I got one in my hand from a piece of wood from a baseball bat. I bit the booger out and carried on to sada.
