    Evening guys and gals :D

    Thanks for the good luck messages about starting my new job :) I think I'll be ok there you know, even if it isn't as long term as I'd like it to be. Take everything about the nhs, better it by 10 and you have an idea of how different it is. The money is actually spent on the patients! Such a stark contrast :o

    Savvy - having worked for a major pharmaceutical. Often we used to get drugs back in with expired dates. They'd be retested - in 99.9% of the cases they were well within specs of product - with little or no deterioration. They were often repackaged with a new date on. Maybe having a 3yr instead of 5 yr expiry.

    The return that came with a letter inside asking if we still made the product & if so could she have some more absolutely astounded us all in the lab.

    The letter read - I first needed use of your product when I was expecting my first child at the age of 20. (the tablets were for constipation) They worked well then. I've had reason to use your product a number of times since then and they have worked extremely well each time. I now find that I only have a few tablets left, which I am enclosing, as I hope you will let me know if they are still available as if I have the same problem in the future I'd like to take these tablets again, they have worked so well for me in the past.
    Yours

    Yes, she included the tabs which were still at 97% efficiency, after 65 years, when tested & we still made the product so a bottle was sent to her.

    I don't think you need to worry too much Savvy!

    I honestly can't stop laughing:rotfl:

    All this talk amd pics of Disney, and someone came round earlier to chat to us about Florida, Disney, universal and everything else Orlando, I'm getting a little bit excited about going now, but none of us want to spend two weeks trawling around theme parks :o

    It's ok when you have kids or grandkids. I have neither and as much as I love my friends and their kids....

    Looks a great price. This has reminded me of something. Remember sunshine Stacey who found all the good holiday deals? Well I read an article about her in the local newspaper and she now has her own web site

    Didn't even know that she was local:)

    Shame your not nearer ;) he is brilliant at rebuilding cars, got his first 2 when he was 15 both in bits and one was for parts but redid them both :cool: the bloke he got them from was so shocked and annoyed he had 2cars after we got the second re registered. He wants to get a garage to renovate classic cars.

    We don't have kids or grandchildren either but still find plenty to enjoy in Orlando. Have you looked at the Dibb forum? There's a wealth of information on there. Lots of people write trip reports - you might find it interesting to read some by people who travel without small people. There are some great food reports too, if that's your thing.
