    Thank you Altojack :A Hope you are okay x

    No :( he seemed keen when I spoke to him, but the written rejection was the usual polite stuff about being able to choose another Medical Oncologist close to home etc. :o

    :(:(:(

    Choose another :)
    :) as you know That Sister is now with Mererid Evans in South Wales - an exceptional oncologist - she wasted so much time avoiding her original one in Telford, loathed him :o

    My head is in pieces, I hate Android!!!

    Has taken me about 50 mins to just start setting up my new droid pay account on that stupid Alcatel phone. Whoever designed it needs shooting with rusty forks!! It took me about 10 mins just to type in my email addy, it just puts whatever random letters it wants, takes no notice of all of where you pressed on the screen.

    :mad::mad::mad: Yes the little plucker wound me up, But in settings you can change keyboard to normal - took me a while to find it but once changed it didn't write stupid things about sharks when I was typing seats

    My Huawei P8 Lite is simply divine :D

    On the T&C's it says "1,000 bonus points will be awarded on first booking made during the promotional period. No further bonus points for multiple bookings are available"
    So if booking another train journey even though the first one wasnt Virgin train, would they still get the 1000 points for booking another journey?
    Also, in the T&C's I cant see anywhere where it says it has to be a virgin train. Just to book through the Virgin website.
    Of course, unless I have read it wrong :o

    Make a booking on a Virgin Trains service on either West Coast or East Coast routes
