Well my UG saga continues with a message from CoS:

Your receipt has been processed but has unfortunately been denied on this occasion as we were unable to identify any qualifying products on your receipt.

Can't say I blame them - 'drink' at 1.39 could be anything, couldn't it?

Deep sigh, as mhoc would say...

Email them and they will likely process straight away. It may say drink but they would (should) have it entered in the system.

An elderly man next to me picked a few up too and said "it's not worth washing them, I'll just chuck them out when they are dirty:eek:"

Thanks, I have now done this and I suggested they might like to contact T as its till system could potentially mess up the whole CoS promotion in regard to UG.

I finished work today at lunchtime.......well 2pm:o and I was whisked away to Ask to spend my QKR money:)

It didn't go smoothly:o

Had a coffee in the Champagne bar (£4).... you been there lately DM? They've built a very classy outdoor extension.....all glass and well designed.....lovely soft furnishings. Got to Ask restaurant and I mentioned that we would be paying using Q.....K.....R....that's how I said it. The waitress asked if I meant "Quicker" :rotfl::rotfl:

We ate and the food was fine. Then up popped our bill which was not ours. It was twice as much as we had spent and just not what we had eaten. Unfortunately our table was covered by two different waitresses who were changing shifts. The first one who had put the meal through had gone leaving the second with our odd transaction. Our transaction had "frozen " on her till and whilst she knew we had the wrong bill she couldn't do anything with it. Then it disappeared from our phone as she was cancelling.....we had to log in again and there was nothing just a new number for our table that didn't match anything.

All the while we were running over on parking:o

With some help from a colleague she input it all again but forgot to take our 50% off mains....oh it went on forever. I was sweating bullets running back to the car:o:rotfl:

I know everyone else has had a good experience and I was very happy to get the meal we did for next to nothing but not sure about the technology.

The jury is out for me

No not this weekend AJ........in a fortnight yes:D

Tomorrow we are at the significant Birthday of a significant friend and it's going to be a killer watching everyone knocking back the champagne. I've offered to drive as I can't trust myself not to buckle:rotfl:

At least I will have a clear head on Sunday:D

I needed a external hard drive for our new freesat thing so just made OH log into his Amazon to order with the £10 discount. He wants to know why I couldn't do it on mine! I'm not sure if I'm ready to tell him I spent it on a pressure cooker/slow cooker. He'll be annoyed. I need to cook something in it first that tastes nice

Serendipitous, I watched a documentary about Julian of Norwich about a month ago, and immediately thought of you

"All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of thing shall be well"

Programme was very interesting :j

Thank you. I need to say it all the livelong day at the moment due to circumstances beyond my control in RL.
