    Do you mean APG or vouchers? Is your order showing as collected? If yes, have you checked the APG and clicked the 'get voucher' button?


    Yes the order is showing as collected, should it show that i rejected the sharpies? I'm expecting £20 to be refunded to my card for those.

    I've checked the APG and clicked the 'get voucher' button (i did it again and it said whoops you've already requested this) but the vouchers aren't in my account. I thought they usually go in within 24 hours?

    Been there, many moons ago:beer:
    Tiny place, the big man was there himself.
    16 of us, had to sit round a small bar table, each round was the same, couldn't change it.
    Beer was 1% as they didn't want any trouble!:(

    No it won't show sharpies as rejected. APG is usually there to check within 24 hours - vouchers can take up to 7 days. Your vouchers will probably be through later today/tomorrow. Your refund may take a few days longer.

    Afternoon all – inappropriate hugs to everyone who needs them, the Elite must be made of very stern stuff to cope with everything that is thrown at us.
    I am forcing myself, now I have caught up with the domestic drudgery, forcing myself outside, heavily covered up, thinking some UV rays and some light gardening might restore the equilibrium.
    Eldest child and her BFs wedding week is looming, it has taken 15 months in the planning and it is organised within an inch of its life so I have no qualms about last minute hitches, eldest child and BF are in very good spirits but I don’t know how they are going to concentrate on work this week …
    We were due to have eldest son here this afternoon, possibly even his GF but we knew in reality this was doubtful, I think their weekend guests are still in residence. Eldest son did talk to his dad this morning though, it seems that GFs interview on Friday went very well and the next step seems to be flat hunting again. Eldest son got his new posting a few months back, due to start July or earlier and it was not where they were expecting. It has meant GF job hunting again as it’s a long way from Brum and then they will both relocate. They are both very resilient and will cope with the move well enough – or at least GF will as she is the sensible, confident down to earth one!
    We are going to miss them both dreadfully but we just have to adapt.
    I did ask Eldest son this morning if there was any news but he had no idea what I was on about – so I am not sure if GF has got the new job or not. Or if I am supposed to know or what it is I am not supposed to know about 
    So I am sending down GFs birthday card today but her present refuses to get into a jiffy bag, too bulky so it will have to wait until we see them in York at the end of next week.
    Its OHs birthday today – he says just waking up every morning and finding you are still alive is a gift at our age  LOL. He has a few presents to unwrap but actually its all stuff he knows about so the unwrapping photos will be just for the sake of FB photos for the kids.
    He got a birthday card from GFs dad and step mum – OH sents over memory sticks with downloads of train magazines for GFs dad which they are both into  - Very sweet of them to send a card.
    He also got cards and breakfast bought him at work and someone gave him a Thomas Tank engine easter egg 
    He has had a birthday card in the post from Errant youngest son, goodness knows where it has been, looks like it has been dropped in a muddy puddle. He never sends cards or acknowledges birthdays but eldest child said she had a nag at him.
    Errant son who has been living in his van since his flat lease expired and also jobless – he and his GF (who has been over in the Uk for 6 months on a visitors visa) have gone back to the Philippines for a few weeks and they are due to get married sometime this week, no idea where or when or how. They met Christmas 2015 and got engaged March 2016 – Errant son is estranged from us, shut us out of his life totally although he still rings and messages his brother and sister sometimes. We only know anything through third hand information and things that are posted on facebook occasionally. Errant son is due back in the Uk possibly the day before his sisters and her BFs wedding - well that’s the plan, have to see if it happens as they missed their flights going out.
