    That's £630 for that laptop?

    Not a good deal.
    I got mine, which is a better spec, for under £500 and is a toshiba. (2GB and 120 GB)
    My old Dell had a melt down after one year and completely failed after 2.
    Well if I was just after a laptop then fair enough you'd be right...

    But it's £593.50 (once you account for quidco cashback) for a laptop, a new phone, 500 minutes of cross network calls a month and unlimited texts.
    Which to be fair to me is a good deal.

    Hey Sar,
    I'd be interested in this deal-my contract is up in a few months with my phone and that's what I am currently paying with Orange.
    I wonder how long the offer will be on for?
    What phone did you get?

    Just seen your laptop post - thats my laptop, you haven't nicked it have you (oh, wait, I'm typing on it right now! Thats okay then). I love my laptop. I love it, I'd never have a pc again, and I don't even use the wireless facility, it stays on the desk in the living room. I'm not a texter/mobile person, except for basics, so that doesn't thrill me, but my laptop still does, and its 18 months old now! Out of curiosity, what have you been using up till now to post?

    Morning Sar,

    Tesco just sent me a height chart (In the night Garden)

    Would your 2 like it? Mine are 9 and 12, and a bit past all that !!!
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
