    Good morning.

    Hands up if you have entered all your details but have not pressed submit on your self-assessment, just in case you have missed anything ... Oh, is that just me then :eek:. Off to quadruple check nothing is missing before finally pressing submit.

    What I have noticed recently is how VirginM (probably others, they stick out as they generally have issues!) have switched us all to paperless bills (or charge us for paper) on the basis of this is cheaper and better for the environment, yet they only then store 6 months worth before they disappear off the system. How is that helpful? It means that you have to be even better organised downloading copies of bills for your records - 12 months should be the minimum, or the length of the contract at least. Never had this when they were paper based, they were always in a pile until filed :D.

    I only print off one a year unless the contract has changed.

    You could download 6 bills every 6 months and save them on your computer. I don't really know why you would want to print them out.

    They would have more luck saving paper if they sent me less junk mail. :o

    We print them off because OH claims them under the business, only place he has internet access for it.

    Good morning Elite :hello:

    Hugs to my poorly friends and everyone else who is ill or feeling low X

    I'm having yet again another late start to the day :eek: no plans have been made as we are dog sitting today :j. I love it really as I am a dog lover and wish I had my own. However, our usual life style of jaunting at such short notice wouldn't be fair to a dog :)

    Get out shopping guys, sooner rather than later as the weather might be poo later today :eek:

    I need another coffee to help wake me up, 7 more days of CBB and I'll be back to my usual self :rotfl::rotfl:

    Right, coffee pot here I come, and an over night catch up :)
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    I wouldn't want to print them off - just there is no reason for them not to store more than 6 (apart from space, I suppose, but then they are my internet provider with lots of storage :D) - I know most of us are on rolling contracts but it would not be unreasonable to set the limit at 12 or 18 months to cover a contract period.

    Just back from my first free Weight Watchers meeting and cooking bacon sarnies - No not for me as I was a stone more than I expected!!!


    So just a nice cuppa and a read up of all the WW stuff I have been given.


    Oh Boy that bacon smells yum! This diet ain't going to an easy ride.


    Have a Good One! xx

    They could avoid all their many above inflation price rises if they cut down on the junk mail - and the fancy leaflets they send justifying the price rise by explaining how good they are and why we should feel fortunate to be with them :).
