    That's interesting, so is signed for delivery not necessary?

    Signed for isnt really worth the money now unless its for the extra insurance, as its rare that it actually gets signed. If it is worth under $20, then just get proof of postage, then if it goes missing, you can claim. (I think its up to $50 if signed for) Figures might be out of date now, but about.

    The grumpy one and the old codgers (think last of the summer wine, but Geordies!) go to the micro pub in the next village each week. I'm, no, not Nora Batty, their taxi driver. This week when I picked them up they all had various leaflets and had had a training session in said little pub on how to use the defibrillator that had recently been installed outside.

    Our 'Foggy' is going to investigate how we get one here so if I find out I'll let you know.

    I was going to say this - proof of posting is free from the post office and covers items up to £20 with compensation, so always worth it in case it goes missing (and you can prove to eBay etc that you have actually posted something - I had someone on eBay trying it on threatening to open a case and sent them proof I had posted it and funnily enough never heard from them again :D).

    Really hope they sort out the APG system. have been trying to print a few wombles with no luck on any browser. Then suddenly remembered I have an £80 online APG that I have been saving by renewing every month. Can't log in to use that either:(:mad::(
    Please shout if anyone finds its working.

    Just tried and still getting the tech wizards message - maybe the tech wizards have downed tools as they will soon be out of a job :(.

    It is not acceptable as each day that passes someone else could be losing their vouchers, if they hadn't checked already, as the 28 day limit kicks in.
