    Urgh. After a day where I feel like I've been swimming against a current of BS, I got home to an npower envelope. For a nanosecond I thought this was what I've been waiting for - confirmation that my account is settled and closed, and I never have to suffer the misfortune of dealing with npower again.

    Nope, it's another reminder that the credit they are supposed to have applied to my account (resulting from a complaint, which was subsequently mishandled) in December, still hasn't hit the account.

    !!!!!!.

    Yes, You don't own your image iiuc.....otherwise crowds couldn't be shown for example. But.....not even sure, or not sure either way on this :o

    No idea as to the answer to your question, but I'd also be concerned that the photo was on other sites too.

    I don't mind beans on toast but don't necessarily want them as part of a breakfast other wise, They ARE a meal really.


    spirit, you know, you are going to make one hell of a difference in the voluntary sector when you are ready. That sector needs people like you. Please remember though, workoholics always can find someway to burn out. When you are ready learn to balance :). You are too precious to so many.

    I only like beans every so often. Usually prefer mushy peas instead (not tried them at breakfast, mind). But the beans should definitely not be in contact with the bread/ toast/ hash browns/ anything else that shouldn't be soggy) in a breakfast.

    Sprit - what lir said x 10.

    The times I've volunteered, I've noticed that even semi-competence can have a HUGE positive impact. You are miles better than that.

    It must have been such a tough decision, well done for doing what you needed to make it xxx

    There's a website you can paste the picture into and it will search for it in other places. Was reading about it today in the case of a woman who has had her social media photos 'sort of' stolen and a weird kind of internet identity theft took place.

    re: the egg, toast bean thingy. I bought one yonks ago for Doozer. It hasn't changed except it was just toast and egg. Someone has figured out you can put beans in the receptacle.

    It's rubbish if you want only toast. It takes so long, you're left wondering if the bread has toasted or just gone stale.

    You can also do this with google too. I'll find the link. Actually, I'm sure I remember posting it before, can't remember who for or why though!

    Ok, nothing, not even first image, shows through that tiny eye. Google image it cannot get to work because I cannot work out how to make it work to search from a screen shot. Grrr.

    Fir doesn't think its that wise to search on work system, lol.

    I'm not convinced its a big deal.

    Kids are taught that if the must start sexting each other they should not show anything identifiable, to prevent photos turning up online.

    I would have thought the advice should just be "don't" but clearly I'm old fashioned.

    Nice one chewy!

    I went to see the Rheumatologist and feel much more optimistic about the future as a result.

    I'm glad you feel settled about the decision and have come to it in your own way and time.

    I have never been a fan of Beanz on Toast. Don't like my bread being all soggy. In fact I like my beanz kept a long way from anything else I'm eating.

    I love beans and poached eggs on marmite toast, with grated cheese over the top. :D
