A few years ago I went to a huge birthday party for one of the UK's most eligible batchelors

I didn't see you there...?:rotfl:

Correction: sorry, I thought you said "one of the UK's most illegible bachelors"

Has anyone ever approached a company for sponsorship? I'm trying to find an email / phone no for someone at Sony that deals with marketing /sponsorship for students. On their live chat some, they suggested LinkedIn? To me that just looks like a lot of ambiguous job titles, where in reality they probably work on the shop floor and don't have much clout. Just want a loan of one of their camera's for my Final Major Project. I know one student did get in touch with Hasselblad and they loaned him a very expensive camera and sent some people to attend the end of year show!

Speaking from experience of being at the receiving end IYSWIM, Twitter is a much more productive way of approaching companies - it makes your interest public, and much more likely to get a response (even if negative); person-to-person contact, via say LinkedIn, is easier to ignore. Try @SonyUK, and good luck:T

Evening PD, and everyone else of course:wave:

I'm a country bumpkin too ...I had to Google it as well.

Where have you been this week Jelly?

I hope you aren't getting embroiled in the CIA/ Trump debacle

Tinyshoes just had a look in your very neatly packed boot!
What a good idea, standing the bleach bottles in the wine carrier.
My shopping is just thrown in Willy nilly.
Must try harder.

It was staged :rotfl:

The other side was a bit willy nilly with what else was in the boot.

I have used those wine carriers for all sorts though, I always make sure they are in the car to stop glass etc rolling around, usually they lay flat in the bottom and I just put stuff on top of them.

Why do some fingernails grow quicker than others?
But it's never the same fingernail each time.
I'm convinced they take it turns to have a growth spurt, just to baffle me.
Tonight it's the turn of the right-hand thumbnail - an hour ago it was fine, and now it looks like one of Satan's deadlier digits.
And the little finger looks like it wants to join in...

Oh and I did mention it last week those were the bleach bottles with the winter spice fragrance that are 50p each. :money:

It's Sainsbobs own thick bleach and the bottles are more of a purple colour than my pic shows.

DM... can you introduce the batchelor to PD please?

:D:D:D

He would be far far too old for PD now.


Well, went to sainsburgs, the shelves had been ransacked, but managed to get the last 3 bottles of somethign for £2.84 and got 3 bottles of nice stuff for £4.

Picked up my 5 freddos, but when I was scanning them, sods law, one of the ones I picked up was a bladdy popping candy one, but it wasnt all bad.

A) I think I will prefer the popping candy one,
and b) *missprice alert!* It went through the till at 3p
