    So can you please explain as i am still confused:o

    As JuJu said, you have to pay to join. It is either £10 through Dobbies, or you can use CC points to pay (I think JuJu said it was £4 of CC points) For that you get money off things and 2 free drinks a month.

    So pleased that he received prompt attention and that you are all home safe and reasonably sound.

    It was 3 hours before he received attention but wouldn't complain...the medical staff were rushed off their feet and he said at one point there was a queue out the front door:o
    I think he felt guilty that he was putting them to any trouble to be honest and once he got through the queue he was treated promptly.

    Poor NHS:o

    I had one of those AK47 £5 notes in my change today.

    Debating whether to FleaBay it or not.

    There's one in Ponteland near the airport there cafe is useful a useful place to wait when picking people up. If they text when they are in baggage reclaim you can be in the drop off car park by the time they come out.

    The AK47 is a rifle, so apparently the £5 notes with AK47 serial numbers are appealing to some folk.

    I like how the article seems to confuse the asking price with the selling price:rotfl:

    We could all ask £100K for something but it's unlikely we'd get it.:rotfl:

    I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. :)
