    Only managed two today, for some reason it stopped working and had to pay cash. It was clarified later..... a telephone call from bank about unusual activity on my card, loads of 10p shops. :eek:
    My flump army had turned on me, been re-assured it is now ok, a bit of a stumbling conversation explaining why I was buying 10p items every one minute :o:o

    I did wonder about this happening but we are alternating with shops for things we actually need so its not 10 very small shops one after another :D

    But I've got the info card my bank gave me with the 0800 number so if it happens I can ring them while I am in store.
    It happened once a long while back, before the days of apps - suspected cloning activity on my card and the card was stopped on the morning when there was a garage bill to pay :(
    Now though they are supposed to ring you if there is unusual activity on the card.

    I would go for something like Alienware (Dell), I lust after those. You might have half a chance on black Friday of getting a bottom end one!

    Is he looking for desktop of laptop?

    In all honesty I would suggest finding a local small computer shop and going and asking them about building one.

    Suffice to say, that is not a big budget for a gaming computer.

    No idea why Preston showing was cancelled but do think we should have been informed by email. Fortunately we hadn't travelled far to the cinema
    Yes a shame too as it was a good film.

    Evening luvlies

    I know it must have been awkward for you BH, but this tickled me. This is the sort of thing that would happen to me :eek:. Alas, we only have an old moto g in the house which doesn’t have NFC, all others are iPhones so unable to partake in this.

    Best of luck to those who are winning using the app. Enjoy reading of your wins :)
