That's annoying. I think they are using the N/A as and when they feel like it, just like T's do sometimes.

and the final annoyance was messages from youngest son. Apparently his ex employer paid him in December by accident and they are requesting the money is transferred back. This is what youngest son was asking about yesterday but he has only just forwarded me the emails so I now understand what the problem is - emails dated 06/01. So I checked his bank account and I can see the payment - I don't know why either of us did not realise it was a salary over payment mistake and fortunately it has not been spent. I cant do the transfer for him as it needs his debit card and the card reader (fortunately I put one in his bag in July as a just incase item) - just have to hope that he can now find it in his bag or his room. I've sent him instructions how to do the transfer, just hope they were clear enough as he has not done this before. I think he must be on exped as he cant do it until Friday. so in the meantime I've emailed his ex employer to let them know the situation as they are getting anxious now.

You and your son needn't get anxious about this. This the employer's error and the employer can be very grateful that your son isn't saying that the money isn't spent already and only offering to pay it back by drip feed. If the employer needs to wait, then he needs to wait.

OMG - even this is proving to be difficult.

I'd not even heard of the original factory shop and our nearest is a 20 mile round trip but when we do go in that direction I will check it out.

so I went back to the original idea of Argos as we have one inside our Sainsburys but its out of stock there and also our other shopping town and in Chester :mad:

so I've had to reserve it to collect from our nearest town which I loathe and detest going to but its the easiest option and at least I can part pay with points

in theory I could also finish filling the Oxfam bric a brac box and also get my birthday cream cake from Greggs - if OH manages to escape from work before this evening

a kind person also mentioned Morrisons so that is the back up plan

nothing simple today

I have the spiralizer that looks like a pencil sharpener, they do the same job yet are a lot cheaper.

Also, when you are bored of the idea, they take up less room in the cupboard!

just had this email which might be of use to someone - it looks like quite a commitment but worth the effort of at least getting your opinions heard

Hello,

You have expressed an interest in skin condition-related products and treatments in one of our past surveys. I’m writing to let you know about an exciting new research programme that we’re currently recruiting for and we think you might be interested in.

We’re looking for parents of children under 16 with eczema to take part in an online study. We want to know more about:
• your child’s eczema and how it affects him/her
• your opinions of treatments you have tried
• your experiences with your doctor and other healthcare professionals you may have seen etc.
You will be rewarded for your time with £50 worth of vouchers.

If you would like to take part, please can you take a few minutes to register your interest here:

https://www.research.net/r/eczema_tracker_screener

If you are chosen to take part in the study, we will require you to complete a short online questionnaire once a month over the course of the study which will run for 12 months. It will be a great opportunity to have your voice heard on the treatment your child has received, and to contribute to the understanding of childhood eczema, as well as the development of eczema products. Your responses will never be shared with any third parties unless you have given specific consent.

If you have any questions about this research opportunity, please do not hesitate to contact me at this address.

All the best,
