  • Grrrrrr, why do these countries have to change their electrical plugs.

    Just double checking the Italian one and it looks like they are phasing in grounded plugs, and the hotel we are going to has been refurbished, so I now have to see if I can source a 3 pin travel adaptor :mad:

    Wouldn't mind, but we are going tomorrow!

    Thank you

    Anon, FYI - Amstel, Old Mout, Kronenboug and Birra Moretti are all £1.67 individually in Scotland rather than on a 3 for £5 deal

    COS doesn't seem to recognise Scotland's unit price is less than everywhere else so we are being overpaid on every bottle

    I've just spent hours sourcing a dongle for Tenby next week...
    Last time I took one there was no network coverage :mad:

    So rang Kiln Park & they are all on Three there :)

    But Arg0s have no stock :( so did a prime order for tomorrow :)

    Big night in Bingo tonight. I'm going to try & raise £50 for Red Nose Day by selling these

    59 at £1 each - £10 prize (winning number drawn by Bingo Caller on machine)
    fingers crossed :)
    I add a £1 = £50 :)

    Fabulous outfit mhoc.

    Hope PD and any other London elite are safe. We have friends whose daughter is a researcher in the House of Commons. They've heard from her a little while ago - she's safe but on lockdown inside the building...

    Eh up. We're fine. A couple of my friends work at Parliament and just round the corner, thankfully they're all ok. x

    Glad to hear it PD.

    Good afternoon Elite.
    Hope everyone is warm, happy and well. Hugs to those not so.
    The sun is shining and it's pleasantly warm after the last few days.
    I have a day off today so no chance to check sharpies. Hope they still work for those with orders today.
    Enjoy your day.

    Oh and I have doubled-booked myself so have a pair of IHS tickets, valid for any day 3rd - 7th April, which are sadly now sitting in my recycling.
