    Wish I could offer some ideas FC for the clock change but I can't imagine anything that you haven't already tried :o wonder if savvy has any ideas:think:

    SAVVY HAVE YOU ANY IDEAS?:)

    Just curious - What doesn't he like about an extra hour for free :huh: The lost hour in Spring I agree is annoying. I'll probably use my extra hour to stay up later on my iPad :p

    Edit: I see your post now FC. I'm fortunate my sleeping pattern is pretty flexible

    Ooooh and Penn and Teller! Can't believe I forgot about that. They got me up on stage and I did a knife throwing trick with them. Still one of the best moments of my whole life.

    Big recommendations for those shows.

    First went to Vegas on my own (but as part of an organised coach tour of Western USA) I got a name for myself on the coach as the person who could cram the most into the experience :T - managing to see Mystere early evening followed by a midnight showing of 'O'. Well you're not supposed to sleep in Vegas are you?!! :rotfl:

    We have just done the same coach tour of Western USA....we had a brilliant time....didn't manage any shows in Las Vegas though :rotfl:

    our dogs fleas seems to become immune to front line, can anyone recommend "advantage" as the reviews ive read are good.

    while searching I came across a home made "flea trap". ill try that tonight, as its free. http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Flea-Trap

    The only front line that works is front line combo from the vets. We just started using advantage bought from Amazon on our cat after she came back from the vets after an op covered in fleas :eek: and it does seem to work, for now anyway!

    :D:D:D That is brilliant :T:T:T Im gutted I don't have the opportunity to see in in person.
    ......be careful with my poppies ;):p

    Just back from seeing the poppies they are truly beautiful,hundreds of people gathered around the Tower ,wish they had collection boxes.
    Also for the past few days each time I pass a poppy seller I have been emptying mine and mums purse of loose change ,small gesture but all adds up.
    So each supermarket visit empty out the loose change.....

    just go steady as I had my paypal account shut down, had to prove identity, card ownership, provide passport, driving licence etc. It took about a week to get my account back. My friend however got theirs shut down and its been two months now, and its still not sorted!!!! My friend has just over £300 in the account too (this is a genuine 'friend', ie not my AE iyswim ...Show caution!

    That is my fear bex, am thinking put 6 through each month paying each to oh via Ppal. Hoping that won't trigger any of Ppals security thingies.

    Glad you had such a great time. I loved it too. The perfect way to see lots of different things without having to actually drive all those miles yourself. :T

    Ah :) Thanks Anon :A I considered doing this as oh has a Ppal account linked to our bank account so I could put the 3v into mine then pay to him and he could pay into the bank. I was scared that it might be classed as money laundering :rotfl::eek: Is there a limit to how many much you can cash out this way each month or is it just a case of not going mad and getting your account blocked by Ppal for unusual activity?

    It's not money laundering as the original funds would come from an illegal activity for it to be classed as that. Doing the paypal thing is what's called 'micro laundering' and it's becoming increasingly popular way for criminals to launder money. So whilst you aren't doing anything illegal, you're using a method that might look like you are. You are right that it increases the likelihood of checks/temporary account closures etc. I suppose the larger scale you do it on, the more likely you are to encounter this?
    Id say if you are going to do this, then make sure that you use legit details. Anyone doing it with false details to get access to more accounts etc could potentially run in a whole heap of trouble if their accounts are investigated.

    Not scaremongering, just giving the facts as we are talking large sums of money in some cases.
