    Back from charity shop, and having put online orders to one side for collection, then customers in at the time buying stuff, there was very little to go out on table lol. Flying out as I have priced it fairly. Having taken off what it cost me, I checked how much they could be bought at the moment elewhere, and went somewhere in the middle. Fair to the people buying and fair to the charity for enough funds raised. Went to Asda on way home, and going out later yet again. I love that it is going so well and I am helping the rescue raise much needed funds :j

    Thanks for the gin ideas. I don't drink it personally but my mum always has so this trend suits her!

    AP droid second month try.

    So I removed the bank card from my 1st month AP account yesterday.
    I had already added a new account gmail address to the phone about 1 week ago.

    Today, I added the same bank card to the 2nd AP account, it went on fine.

    I have not deleted the 1st account and all the vouchers are still there.

    I tried a payment on the 2nd account, but no envelope appeared.. nothing at all about the promotion. Tried 3 transactions and it's definitely not working.

    I think I'll try a factory reset and different bank card (saving the voucher scr-shots to my iphone first).

    If that doesn't work then I'm stumped.
    Unless anyone can suggest anything else?

    Ohhhhh shame keep trying though. I’m sure there are a few of us who are interested :)

    Good on you Enterprise,I admire your stand on it all.....I think even during my generation drinking has become more socially recognised than perhaps it was for my parents and now it's all too easy to have an odd glass here and there....doesn't always make it right but as I say it's become acceptable.

    So....enterprise has never been drunk....what has everyone else never done.....?
    I've never had either a KFC or a subway...
    My DS has never had a filling (he's almost 20)....and my OH...well I haven't a clue about him and things he wouldn't admit to...

    Wellllll I ve never been drunk , had a puff of a cigarette, never tried any drugs I’m an angel move over bubbs :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I have had a puff of a cigarette - mum gave me one when I was 5, put me off for life as was intended, never tried any drugs though.
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare
