    Good Afternoon all :) had an interesting experience in Tesco the other day. Nellie you missed out :p I was upstairs waiting my turn at the clothing counter and this chap was there and all of a sudden he whipped his grey tracksuit bottoms down saying I've got underpants on . I said feel free lol.

    The young girl serving was agog but I took it all in my stride lol. He then showed his sky blue boxers and put on a pair of smart black trousers. Apparently he was late to a funeral and couldn't t find his trousers at home ( that old chestnut ;)) and he had to come and buy some trousers. He then dashed off He was quite fit too :D

    On a positive note, I could not get the 02 rewards sorted as when I had obtained a sim, it just would not allow the code without putting credit on it which I did not want to do! 02 have just sent me an e-mail, if I send a text (which I am hoping I can do).. they will put the first £10 credit on....

    I am sure I will get this wrong as anything slightly technical has gone wrong recently! But the phone with the 02 sim is on charge... fingers crossed.

    I am still not sure why you need credit - mine was live when I inserted it in a phone (no credit) and that sim is only being used to receive a text - the app is working on my main phone (EE) and you enter the new sim number in the app, it then texts you a code to the new sim which you use to activate. Even where I have had the sim in my main phone it did not need credit to activate (used wifi?), unless it has changed recently?
