  • Has my favourite airport in the world :beer: :j Mega cheap flights from the mountainless south, quick hop on a very spectacular bus ride west, and then totally spoiled for choice in terms of amazingly beautiful terrain in evey direction.

    Yes I'd agree the west coast is stunning :) I love it over on Skye.

    There are many beautiful places up here, some of my favourites infact, Findhorn and Cullen spring to mind. It's just Inverness as city that I'm not keen on.
    ...those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

    There's a fork in the road, which way will you go
    You standing still or will you step into the great unknown,
    Is yours to decide, this is your life.

    Was just popping on to say that was in T today and they had lots of jars of Santa Maria umami reduced to 74p. T mag has 100 point moc for these, so bought a few :beer: Probably old news, but had not spotted these before.

    I am the same its a wonder I haven't smuggled dogs and cats home from abroad :o

    Not been abroad for 10 ten years or on holiday that was last time I went away to Turkey.

    I found a Labrador type dog in a town in Turkey and gave it some water, but some guy from a restaurant came and took my plastic cup from me and chased the dog off. :(

    I forgot to add the pubs I went to most of the people were well tanked up on arrival. I went to some for when they opened and by the time I left the bar was full of people. That was at 11:30 in the morning. :(

    At some of the pubs I struggled to take pictures of the bar due to there being a drunk at each seat (that was by mid afternoon) :( . The POS was on the bar, so I needed that picture.

    However, a large majority were okay, but it was about 10% that made me think this is not for me. Especially after being swore at again.

    hope this wasnt in our town:eek::rotfl:.thought of you when i saw the pizza offer was on again.:D.i hope your new job brings you every happiness.:)

    How did they steal it? and who stole it?

    An abbreviated version, don't want to post too much in a public place.
    Sold an item overseas, before I had a chance to get a postage price they'd paid then started emailing that they needed it for a week's time. I refunded as the postage cost was only for posting in GB. A month later paypal took the money from my account. The buyer had made a charge back because they hadn't received the item, well they wouldn't because I'd refunded the payment. If they'd looked into the person who was making tbe claim then they'd have seen I'd refunded them :mad::mad: despite phoning and writing to paypal they refused to refund me.
    I was getting harassed by debt collection companies, my ebay account got blocked, all for something that wasn't my fault. :eek
    Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.
    Take time but don't waste time

    ***Karcher K2 Compact Pressure Washer £50.00 in B&Q Wednesbury
    http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/karcher-k2-compact-pressure-washer-50-b-q-wednesbury-1978386

    I have been looking at these - doesn't seem to be that price in the one near me :(. Another report was that the one including the patio attachment was £50in B&M (not available in the one near me :().

    Someone else on HDUK recommended the Nilfisk from Arg0s which is currently £49.99 and in some stores they have reported it coming with all the attachments (so the higher spec model). Not in stock near me so again cannot check :(.

    HTH

    The first time I went abroad with my OH we had only been dating a few months. We went to Cyprus and I ended up jemmying open a boiler room door in the middle of the night to free a cat that was trapped inside.
    My poor other half was bricking it and thought we were going to end up in the nick, but I couldn't leave it to starve and no one would let it out.
    (That was over 10 years ago so I hope Interpol won't come a knocking! :rotfl:)
    We went to see ds1 last year for a month… we took the other kids… they never spent a penny

    What meanies!! Maybe forget yours next time you go out somewhere with them? ;)

    I can't believe they refused freebies 3010, never mind abusively. Shame you could not just have sent them out to us :D

    Hope you manage to stick the job out, it took you so long to get it and you were so pleased when you managed it, keep trying for a while please xx

    I will try my hardest. The last company I could not really get behind if I'm honest and I was glad when they said your going. :T
