    Actually, I've got this song in my head (don't know from where, just one of my favourites) - and wasn't actually thinking of flies or anything like that but, I remember, this version does mention termites!!:rotfl::rotfl:

    Coincidental or what? So, here we go:

    Anorak fact about this is that I have it on a compilation and it is the only track on the compilation that didn't make the Top 40. Got to position number 42 of course in 1991:rotfl:. And, it's actually my favourite of all tracks on that album! Typical me again:rotfl::rotfl:. Always had to cut it off about ten seconds before the end though, as never felt able to play the end bit out when my mum or dad were in the room for some illogical reason (or none). Fine with Ramsey's Nightmares and all the repeated F'ing, but one minor thing in a song and somehow just can't bring myself to play it myself - as if it's 'coming from me' as opposed to a TV programmer. Okay when radio plays things but not when I put them on myself on a CD. (Strange!)

    Great song savvy......insects and chickens:rotfl:

  • Security guard? OMG x



    It started when I went back for the last time for the cold shop. I did 3 before this and they went fine. Usual SA and did him 3 times with a few hundred quid a time. On my 4th shop I needed to do a fridge and freezer stuff and I live about 10 minutes but it takes a while for me to shop :). Guy didn't have a clue about the APG vouchers and wanted to check so he called over a TL and she said its all good. Just sign the receipts and I told her that you been told not to do this and as its the last day you don't need to anyways and I want to use mine in ASDA this week as ASDA has said this is fine with them. So that went fine. Because I didn't know if this SA was good with vouchers I had spit it to about £80 a time.


    Second one was about £100 and she come back over with a security guard and said I don't think you can spend all these and I said its been ok for the last 8 weeks. and she called over a manager and he was talking to CS and in the end it was all good but he did say I could only use 75% of value in vouchers but didn't really enforce it. and I continued to process the vouchers with the SA. The security guard was just watching me and me looking for each receipt. Last one was only £50 and she did say you are only allowed to do £10 a time. I just said every time I come into this store you make up the rules so today I decided to just use as many as I was allowed.


    Security watched me leave the store and then I went back into the store to "test the water" and buy a PS4 game for my daughter but used a g/c but the guard didn't come over or anything. I do think maybe I could have used more. But to be honest I ran out.
  • Finished now, it was slough my home town and Bristol. I used to go to Bristol and stay in a hotel for the weekend or visit family in wales.

    I can't imagine the cost of fuel Slough to Bristol and back and a cost of hotel each weekend would work for me unless you had a massive amount of APGs and you were using them in more that one Mr T?

    Each to their own, everyone has their own line and all that...

    I hope they roll the deal out for everyone to benefit nationally.
