No idea of the first, but if you have Windows 7 or 10 then you can use the "snip" tool to print just the voucher.

Put " snip " into click on the search box, click on "snipping tool", click "new" and draw around the voucher, then you have the option to save or print etc.

I'm up to 70p worth of winnings on the Q game now :rotfl::rotfl:

thanks,

I have managed to do this.... but only one per page so will print at work.. :D:D

DM.
Thanks for the pignoletto recommendation, we have just shared a bottle while watching ginos Italian cookery programme, who dipped fresh fruit in chocolate!
The wine was lovely, ginos not bad either.

I'm feeling grumpy tonight over Children in Need. The front of A is littered with big yellow Children in Need T Shirts and paraphenalia. Most will be worn for a day and end up in landfill. Some children will be upset as some parents may not be able to afford the stuff. Valuable resources are being wasted.

Can we simply not just donate to Children in Need without all this waste?

Darn it, was planning on getting the Thornton's calendar tomorrow, should still be able to as I am going in the morning, but they have just mentioned it on Shop Smart (I'm watching plus 1), why can't they keep quiet about bargains

Plus....they might have stopped the free cake and coffee. We received our vouchers today and it's a free hot drink when you buy a meal:o

Oh no! I hope this isn't the case. :eek:

Coffee and cake for us versus a few more million quid for Elton... gotta get those priorities right.


Good evening, lovely Elite :wave:

I went yesterday and there were still codes at 12:30, so hopefully you'll be alright if you go in the morning .

Awww....I feel disappointed with the John Lewis Christmas ad:o

Must admit it's not what I expected - first I thought it's Eltons life story until the last few frames then I got the message.

Actually used to check him and his entourage in quite regularly when I worked at Heathrow years ago. Always very pleasant to me. His Mum was such a lovely lady. She used to chat to us girls in the First Class lounge when she was flying out to join him. Used to tell us all about her Reginald and his little ways! She was just so clearly very proud of him.

This probably made it a little more poignant for me and hence the tear to my eye.

When son was at school, they had to wear pants over their clothing, decorated for children in need and donate £1.He didn't tell me until bedtime, so I stayed up until midnight drawing Pudsey and a load of colourful spots on a pair of white boxers.
They are still in his pant drawer, i cant part with them, so I'm not a contributer to landfill.

Everything nowadays is about the stores taking their cut.

I was one of 5 people at Thorntons at 10am this morning. The SA scrutinized all our phones to make sure we weren't using screengrabs.

She then got REAAALLY annoyed at us all for daring to ask for personalisations.

The cheek of it, right? Asking for a personalised item to be personalised!
