    Do you remember the Mateus Rose bottles with a candle in, at dinner parties?

    I love picking off the hardened wax leaving a mess all over the table:o

    Goodnight all. Friend bought an Apple Watch series 2 from John Lewis. She was given a series 1 and, in fact, that was the price she paid as there was an error on their website. They made her pay the extra £100 in store for the series 2. She said she thought that wasn't legal but they said it was. JL rang two days later to apologise. Customers who kept the series 1 were given £100 back and so was she. A very happy friend and top marks again to JL.

    Sadly it has just come to an end but I've missed being on here. Can't make the barcode maker give me a barcode for the skimmed milk though. Ah well, it's only 25p!
