Never mind, could be worse....at least the weather is gorgeous even though I cant lay ro sit in comfort so no sunning myself but enjoy if you can.
Final word on the bank woes, all put right now and had official letter from customers bank, that they messed up but no compo is mentioned

Ouch

Is it worth a quick letter to the bank saying how inconvenient it's been with no bank account and how it has affected you being accused of fraud through no fault of your own?

Crackers and cheese for lunch Grommit:D

Had a phone call from the shower people.....they have accepted liability and don't even want the incorrect side panel back. It might make a cloche type cover for some little plants:)

I have a pair of lime green knickers on the line which are covered in black flies. I have pegged out the bright orange t shirt next to them just to give them a choice of venue:rotfl:

What a perfect choices of frame LEJC...it shows the colours off beautifully......a stunning painting .....VT......who's a clever girl then?:T:T

I have to agree TM...it really is stunning in the flesh...the colours are so vibrant and what you cant see are the curtains next to it which are an almost exact match to the blue in the picture...

I'm just so chuffed about it all really....but in honesty it's all down to the "Very Talented" artist.....

Just heard someone say that, with the pound being 10% less, goods they import must cost them 10% more. That's not quite right though is it?* With percentages being of a lower figure, isn't it something like 11.111...% more?:think: Where is aau1?:rotfl:

For the sake of balance:D, I'll mention that it does not impact homegrown goods and, indeed, has benefits for those exporting.

(*Another case, perhaps, where what may seem like "common sense" turns out to be wrong:rotfl:. And... on this occasion, it's actually something that can be proven to be objectively wrong, based on the operation of our mathematical system and the meanings we give to numbers in our language, rather than something that is personal opinion. It's not a matter of personal opinion that 2+2=4. It's matter of fact. Although that's only because 2 means 2 and 4 means 4. It would not be a matter of fact if, instead of 2 in our language, we used the word "deux" or something else. Then deux plus deux would be whatever word we then used to use instead what we currently use in our language as the word "four".

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I know, another esoteric argument at the end here. But it's true isn't it?:rotfl:)
