    Thank you so much for the information - it will really help as we are picking dd up this week x

    Oh I am so pleased! Just beware trying to find that spot again once you leave it unless you’ve a sat nav. Once I was early and drove around to waste time and then drove round in circles trying to find it. A taxi driver gave me directions in the end. But from the motorway it is really easy to find. Good luck!

    Have we got to the bottom of timing on droid envelopes? I was in front of two santa atms which both had it and going fromone to the other I could swipe about every 10s but if I opened a second envelope in less than about 25s I got the not available message. If I had waited an opened them later at home might it have worked ok or is it the swipes that need to be a certain time apart? Thanks

    Note I google for contactless enabled atms and the first two in said were did not work but the santa one had a contactless symbol and was.

    No I still haven’t worked out the best timing - I darent walk off without opening envelopes as I have had a number where the envelope didn’t appear (probably a network issue).

    I just hang around and open each time (switching between accounts makes the timing it work in most cases :)).

    You are about right there zippy, we had the last 5 beanz before xmas think it was about 2014. ;)

    We still have a stack of 5 Beanz :eek: Not even going to look at the date on them, if they are OK when I open them then they get used.

    Doesn't help that OH is the only one that eats them, and I tend to make sure he has them on a badminton night :rotfl::rotfl:
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare

    Yes I suppose its to stall the lunchtime mobbing of Neros as most are back at work before 2.
    For once it suits me as I might get to Morrisons before we go to neros if OH mananges to escape work ...
