    Glad to hear the good news gen, but sorry to hear about the after-effects of the treatment.

    Hello! No I didn't :( Got a voicemail the next day to day the late booking team's computer said 'no' :(
    Oh well. Now need to decide whether I try for latest this year or March/ April next year (which seems like it's recommended as the best time of year).

    On the upside I've decided I need a separate pot of money for fun things like holidays. Especially if I'm going to start saving for big house works.

    Oh drat, so sorry to hear that!

    A "fun pot" sounds a great idea though :)

    Gen I'm so glad the news was a lot better than it might have been, but sorry about the pain. Can you get C0rs0dyl Gel? I find that heals ulcers really fast. And zinc tablets do, as well (obviously you don't rub those on the ulcer :D)

    Thanks all.

    I think I need to see a pain management person, something like that. I don't mind having a placebo but I don't want to support a part of the medical industry that lives off ripping off the sick and the desperate.

    I'm probably teaching my gran to suck eggs, but the MSE Energy Club have a one-year fixed deal that needs claiming by Thursday, in case any NPs are interested.

    I do hate modern life and its deals and fixed times, etc.

    In the olden days you just paid the bill and got on with your life.

    Too much small print these days - and lives sucked up by comparisons/swapping ...

    I switched a week ago only for first utility to suddenly start charging for in contract switches (the previous 4 switches they had not done so). They offered the chance to back out of the switch and the fee means it makes more sense for me to do so then go elsewhere so their loss.....
    I think....

    I'm guessing it's going to be quite a long wire/pipe to get the deal to me!

    Have your human rights been breached due to being exluded from a deal because you don't live in the right place?

    You could sue the EU for not making it available to you.

    Never mind. If Aussie TV is as grim as I imagine it is, there's always distracting websites like this. SFW. :beer:

    I think it's racism quite frankly.

    I think you should sue your utilities supplier for the extra money you needed to heat your home to get it to the 28C I had today. I plan to sue a UK supplier for my costs to get my sitting room down to 20C.

    Now I think of it you probably have a claim for increasing the temperature of your room up to 28C and back down to 20C.
