    Same here, I'm sure somebody with a better memory will remind us. Was it something to do with Tesco?

    Same here - I bought a laptop from them a few years ago, got sent an inferior model that arrived too late for Christmas . Eventually agreed to a return and took weeks to refund. They never did refund the expensive return postage.

    I think what others will remember was buying £10 gift cards for £5 (?) and then them claiming limits 1 per household despite the T&Cs not stating this?

  • Evening folks,
    Thought i would pop my head in the room to say hello.

    I suffer with Arthritis, it's getting worse I'm in pain day and night.
    Decided to do something about it. At the moment i am reading a book called "Curing Arthritis the drug free way". By Margaret Hills, SRN
    some interesting reading. I thought of VT ( i think) Asking for any tips which may help suffers.
    This Margaret women is a nurse and suffered from an early age, it stopped her in her tracks and was unable to work. she had enough and
    She thought he life was over. Then she started doing some research on the matter and the underlying cause is too much uric acid in the body. This acid is carried around in the blood, until it deposits itself between the joints,on the bones,or in the muscles.
    The hard acid deposits connected with arthritis are very similar to the shell of an egg. Cider Vinegar has the power to dissolve those acid deposits so they pass out naturally via the kidneys.
    Sorry! I'm waffling. She also gives advice about diet, acid foods to cut out. I am giving it a go,can't carry on the way i am
    Time will tell.
    When reading this book i thought of my elite family that are suffering.
    Take Care D

    I have heard of a few things people say Cider Vinegar can help. How much does she say you need to drink a day, or is it not that simple?

    Evening Daisybanks - very interesting information. I know that uric acid has been blamed for arthritis and we are always willing to try anything that may give relief :D

    Think there's an opportunity here for Pacifica and me to go into partnership as plumbers. Pacifica could do the jobs while I read the manual to her. (After I get my new glasses, that is.) :D:D

    Could we do that the other way round? :D
