    Good morning all....

    Not sure how I missed it yesterday...but belated birthday wishes to you DM.

    Hope you raised a few cheeky glasses last night!

    Builders are working next door...there is some scaffold but they need to get to a bit that seems a little bit on "our side"....all seems very badly balanced and I'm getting the feeling that they have no intention of protecting our conservatory roof from falling bits and pieces.....I think I need to be the nosey/infuriating/watchful neighbour with camera in hand today to catch the moment should any damage be done!

    Could be a good way of getting a new roof :eek:

    Sorry should have explained better, the accounts are still separate totally but the APG £100 total has been applied over the 2 accounts . the only connection is my name and I have used same laptop some times to do order. X

    It may be linking by IP address then? The rules do say £100 per household limit which we all stick to :A. In the past this was assumed to go on physical address stated in the account and payment method - it looks like another level of security check may have been applied?

    If that is the case, anyone operating accounts (semi-legitimately bending the rules for "family members" ... ) for instore shops may also get caught out with this change, though I suppose having to give accurate information for C&C/delivery accounts due to the payment method may create a link?

    This is true...although it was all replaced just a little over 2 years ago after bits of facia boards came crashing through it ...also from that side!

    They really should have the scaffolding netted off.

    Your donations will save lives Sarah. You must at times have felt so helpless and it's great you've found a way to make a difference.

    :A

    Thankyou tm, it is impossible, it really infuriates me, she wanted to be close to where her little lad is as he is with his dad, not that we have seen him since she died :( but we travel to her grave 5 /6 times a year, as its not close by, and he(the dad) never visits her, there is never any new flowers, and still our old ones lay there, I just so wish she was closer.

    Sorry for moaning. xx

    I've noticed 73 3 for £10 eggs on A, but I only see 68 on MSM.....does this warrant more investigating or do others see more on MSM please?

    Sorry if it's been discussed, I am waaay out of touch

    Thanks I am unto £91 in March, as my order from the end of Feb did not become available for the APG until March :eek:

    I think I will do 2 shops (subject to sharpies remaining active) and then wait until April :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:





    What about setting up an account on a different computer/internet system, or clearing cookies x
    For what its worth. I have 3 a accounts. One for me, one for my mum and one for my brother. I sometimes order using my computer at home, sometimes at my mums. Each has a different adress of course but I use the same card. So far have got £80 apg on each one this month and the vouchers have come through ok. When it says put a name for the card I put different name, e.g. on mine I put home, for my mums I put daughters and for my brother put sister. If it gets questioned, I will say I do shopping for my mum and brother which is true.
    So far no problems. But thought would mention it as an idea to those having problems.
