    Morning all, hope everyone is looking forward to a good week.

    Strange week ahead, nothing on the calendar whatsoever, not a single appointment or social event :eek: so this is my week to get to grips with Christmas prep - order things that need ordering instead of just researching them, make decisions, find the missing memory card I can't even remember buying ...
    I had a thought this morning and messaged son re lumberjack shirt and he says its for social purpose so I am now looking above high street/chain but below the level of super dry , maybe a lesser known label
    Also had a thought last night that I need to send eldest sons Christmas card and birthday card off in the 3rd week this month or he will never get them - noted on the calender.

    Right off to write a massive to do list :D

    Well if you have an email stating it :j and you have a however long cooling off period is it 14 days
    But deffo call them they all try it on and no doubt succeed half the time

    Too late with the cooling off period - it was all done before I went to Cyprus at the end of last month. I should have left it until I got back but I' phoned AOL to moan that my charges had just shot up and they talked me into what seemed like a much better deal. They agreed to post the new router etc to my next door neighbours house ( and confirmed all her address details) as I wouldn't be here to take delivery - they totally messed that up and the router got sent back to them. Not a good start. I don't think they have a leg to stand on and I am NOT paying it !

  • Morning all

    Cold and tired this morning. DD is in nursery so I'm hiding under my duvet until I need to collect her :o has to be done sometimes!
    Will need to get to T's at some point as well for my freebies, will plan my list when I've rested my weary head though :rotfl:

    You standing still or will you step into the great unknown,
    Is yours to decide, this is your life.

    If anyone is still pondering re the pre Christmas treat outing etc I noticed on livingsocial this morning afternoon tea at the Manchester Art Gallery for £12 - it's actually coming up for £10 for me as its a brand new offer.
    I think you can buy these as a gift voucher.
    Also useful if you are doing the Quidco thing.
    Marks afternoon tea is now £10.50 so similar price but a far nicer venue and also an excuse to go shopping beforehand :)

    someone is a vile sicko and I so hope they can be tracked down
    Forum posts are traceable via the computer's IP address (even if the person concerned has taken steps to try and mask their IP address, there are ways and means), so either back to a home computer, or even if the post was made from, eg, an internet cafe, the time and date of the post will be recorded, and most internet cafes have CCTV so the person will be on camera. The MSE forum team could take this further but I appreciate they may not have the time or resources; or it could be referred to the police to see if were a criminal matter under the Malicious Communications Act ("Those who subject others to threatening material online are currently prosecuted in magistrates' courts under the Malicious Communications Act, with a maximum prison sentence of six months"), though there are moves to amend the law with stiffer penalties
