    Hi SHS :)
    A company called Advantis keeps leaving messages on my mobile.

    They are a debt collection agency. I don't have any delinquent accounts and even if I did my mobile is two weeks old, new number.

    Are they fishing? They don't mention my name.
    I had a text like that a few weeks ago - someone was pretending they were Netflix :( a poster on here (Ed? don't know) called it "war dialling" :D
    I have "pulsative tinnitus" in one ear which is apparently potentially worrying.
    I went because I thought my hearing was going but apparently it has just declined to "normal". I am not especially worried.
    Oh! I've had tinnitus for ages - it went for years, but its been back again for a year or so. Better have that looked at.
    It is useful to know that the car will still be in the place you left it!
    Agreed :rotfl:

  • It is not so much the handbrake working as refusing to STOP working!

    I have my scan in half term. A day of holiday gone.

  • Oh yes. Can't wait!
  • Have a good work week, and think of the squirrel crawling out of hibernation on Monday morning!
    Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
    Still thrifty though, after all these years:D
  • Hope it is still going well. Day on Dartmoor tomorrow. Woo hoo!
  • Ugh! Teenagers! My own.
  • Are yours teenagers already? Thought they were all tinies. Poor you. Enjoy Dartmoor. Lovely day for it. Rubbish timing for the scan though.

  • I bet it was a bit fresh on Dartmoor. I've found the teen years the hardest phase.
  • It was a bit fresh. I want to go to Chagford drift sales and buy a pony!
