    It's something to do with setting Firefox as your primary search engine.

    Bing tends to come automatically when you have downloaded something and at the bottom there would have been a box saying install bing at the same time which will have been pre ticked

    I don't understand why it defaults to Bing now when it was fine this morning. The computer did a load of Microsoft updates earlier today and it's almost as though Microsoft are now forcing their own search engine on me !

    Free Cineworld Cinema Ticket when you spend £7 on Aussie Hair Care products at Tesco http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/free-cineworld-cinema-ticket-when-spend-7-aussie-hair-care-products-tesco-2398971

    Edit: 2 for£5 in M says MSM, So BG might get it cheaper. Unless you can just by in M. Not sure if it's Tesco exclusive

    Edit 2: it IS Tesco exclusive
    Apparently, everybody knows that the bird is [strike]the word[/strike] a moorhen

  • TM I think if you stay away any longer you will have to be punished :D
    I'm sure there are some paws that need sniffing around here somewhere x
    I do think she said she was having visitors but it's not the same without you TM if you're reading.
    Well done, and how exciting. The key is getting a named person (or their secretary's name)....... and hounding them.

    Many years ago, I worked in a hostel. I had lots of fun, we had a greengrocer delivery fruit and veg, two large supermarkets were very generous with regular donations of food and paint, M&S gave 200 white shirts, all sorts of things.... the most weird was was a large bag of wheat, I taught them to sew heaty wheaty bags, and then market them at craft fayres... they bought two large televisions with the money they made.

    So aim high, be cheeky, and ask for the world.... and you will be surprised at how much is given.

    I would approach things like spas, local artists/crafts people, hair dressers, cleaning companies, catering companies (one friend had bought a meal for 4 couples to be cooked by caters in the home... it was a really good night), photographers, jewellery, (check out who is using Groupon and other similar sites in your area).

    Go for it girl.. x
    As the day has gone on I have got more excited.
    I thought if I get vouchers for restaurants etc I may do silent auctions for those and we have had offers of bottle from friends Bacardi, glayva etc so I could sell raffle tickets for those.
    Our neighbour works for a fruit n veg company and he can get a great big bag of veg for £3 so DH is going to speak to him tomorrow and see if we can buy three of those and I'll get some crates and arrange them nicely so they should be quite popular.
    The Elite have surpassed themselves again you are all :A and the support really does mean alot so thank you
