    Seen a couple of butterflies around today, and a queen bee.

    I've only done one at a time.

    From caravan in Burnham On Sea...

    Fabulous huge caravan & all us 3 families are next door - you can wave from the loo :rotfl:

    Got my dongle working :o:o Took 3 of us to connect it.
    Thanks Zippy but no free WiFi here in this Haven :(

    Chinese takeaway ordered to be delivered & I got Hotel Chocolat crackers for pudding :)
    They were selling Advent Calendars, crackers & large chocolate father Christmas - the 3 for £5 (& we had a 10% off MOC for all stores in Clarks Outlet shops but forgot to use it... :o:o )
    Had free teas in Cafe Nero courtesy of my MSE matey & £1 Cushelle loo rolls too :A:A:A

    it was a brand new system, they had to dig loads of trenches around the park to "wire" all caravans in. it is also supposed to run the tv. but my tv did not work. the maintainance man came out and said sorry, not worked on these boxes yet. lucky i had read the info book and told him what was wrong :o
    he then said lucky they have not removed the aerial from the roof. he made a new cable up, as old one was taken away. youd have thought they would have tested it before removing any old stuff.

    Tenth Anniversary
    Evening peeps. :)

    What a lovely spring day! Took my babies on a bus ride to the other side of town to see their mum.

    I left them there to go to A's to get my first wine shop, Brancott, loads of them there but just got 6 as I had to get them home somehow!! ( with the dogs! )

    Just checked and I see that I and everyone else have had the 'wait until 6am tomorrow' thing. Makes me think that they are trying to rectify the 342 problem!

    Anyway. Happy Birthday QOC (dd) _party__party_

    They're running the TVs on the whole park over wifi? I dread to think what happens if everyone watches at once :eek:

    V M kit arrived today and self installed :). We are just waiting for the phone line then will contact BeeTee to cancel and lose our old number :(.

    Wouldn't you know it a new deal has appeared on the V M website today with £100 account credit or 14 bottles of wine. The cashback offer has reduced on TCB though (now £115), so it would work out similar overall ... I am wondering if a moan to CS may get any joy, given the kit has only arrived today ;). I noticed too that if you search V Money V M they have an offer that includes 200mb bb for £51 instead of the £55 price on V M direct (but a different ordering system so cannot mix and match). Wonders out loud if phoning to cancel would prompt a deal or mess up TCB ... I am not sure my nerves can stand this for much longer :eek:.
