The Elite:The Good, The Bad and the Glitchy

Like someone else, about 8 of my B*xters were OOD (May 2015)! It's only a BB date, so we'll try eating them anyway! Certainly won't be making a fuss at Sada, given the price ;-)

What annoys me round here is the garden rubbish collection. They charge for the bin/bag to put it in, charge a yearly fee for collection, then the charge for the compost!

I shall stick to my compost bin.

OH, and they charge £33 to take away a bulky object, I know some councils do so many collections per year free.

That is a bad reflection on the way the [STRIKE]dumps[/STRIKE] recycling centres are run. Not everyone is comfortable with inviting people to their home to collect recyclables, our centre has a section where you can leave items in working order for others to take.

A bit like hard rubbish day in Australia.

Flip... we were just with the people who Cruise cheaply, and they was saying about an Autumn one from Harwich with drinks. It was either 13 or 15 nights, and between 600-700 each (sorry I had blanked out as you can only listen to people discussing cruise packages so much!)

We did a Fred Olsen week at the end of September last year for just under £500 each plus the £10 a day drinks package on top - for research purposes of course but mainly one of the ports was Rouen - very few of the ships cruise along the Seine and can get so far down because of their size. Sailing along the Seine was really lovely - also went to Honfleur and La Rochelle

Harwich is possible for us but Southampton (and Liverpool so much easier)

As you say people ranting on about their cruise deals gets very tedious :rotfl:

I am terrible with holidays, I just want someone to tell me where I am going and when.... anything else is far too much for my brain. They was sat talking about different places they have been (they knew the names as well!.... my capacity is ooh when we went to Spain etc... and that is me doing well!).

When one of the women said she 'loved the dressing up' .... I wondered if a cruise was for us! lol

just had an email from Topcashback - 24 hour offer. I suppose it would suit someone who hasn't got an ISA yet this year or has not really got the funds to start one but can manage £90

I suppose then after the 90 days then maybe you could look around for the next best cashback offer and then switch again


"Start investing today and you'll receive up to £94.50 cashback for you to spend once premium(s) invested in your plan total £90 and your ISA has been set up for more than 30 days. Terms apply. Capital at risk.

Hurry, this amazing offer is available for 24 hours only!

24 HOUR EXCLUSIVE

Scottish Friendly

Up to £94.50 Exclusive Cashback


Get cashback once premium(s) invested in your plan total £90 and your ISA has been set up for more than 30 days.

If you fully cash in your policy, or request a withdrawal which would leave a value of less than £50 in your policy, within the first 5 years of setting it up there will be a charge of £50 deducted from your policy.
