So, it's good news that my phone is too old? :rotfl:
Thank you

I have a new phone today, an LG G2, about 4 years old, it did belong to DW, was repaired once when she broke the screen, then DD2 had it for a bit while her phone was broken then DW has just had it for a month because she broke her new phone...and finally I get to upgrade the £20 similar age but minimum spec EE rook phone I have been using! (although no doubt once anyone else in the family breaks their phone I will be back to the rook)

But I have been using the o2 priority website which stays registered to the sim whereas the others have had to re register the sim each time the app upgrades.....

Does anyone know if you can use a sainsburys refund card in the petrol station
I've got it in my head you can but not gift cards
Thanks rusty

It has just opened in the Intu (formerly harlequin centre)

It is in the Intu centre (was called the Harlequin for years) in the centre of Watford.

I can't believe I didn't know this. Thank you!

Though I am wondering if the freebie justifies the petrol / parking to get it. Though a dry day would mean I park in Waterfields rather than kings/ queens.

Possibly a slightly unusual one, our garage door is playing up and I suspect despite only being six years old it will need replacing rather than repair. It obviously considerably pains me to spend a grand on something but was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for home county suppliers?

I am even wondering if we get £1000 of 'value' from keeping the car in the garage as opposed to just on the drive - perhaps if I hope the new one will last for 10 years and work out a cost per day I can justify it....

I don't think it is worth my saying who we used, they are based in Reading and we didn't go for aesthetics as it is in a block rather than attached to the house, but what I would say is we got a steel framed one and it looks really good AND never needs painting, door or frame, and we changed the fascia to upvc too, maintenance free garage front

Thanks. I don’t think I could apply in hubbys name because come next year he wouldn’t be any good calling them to disconnect, and don’t think I’d get away with pretending to be him lol.

Surely VM can’t be the only ones with a decent unlimited broadband..

I think I’ll just apply elsewhere and hope they come back with a decent price.

I worried about that too. We have switched from my name to Mrs Anon (albeit via BeeTee for a few days, as you will recall from my posts earlier this year :eek:). Mrs Anon phoned to cancel with a brief script, when they phoned her back she asked that they speak to me - they were happy to oblige and I dealt with it. For most account issues if you know the account password they will deal with you.

It isn't that bad ... a number of us have already taken the pain on behalf of the Elite .

Reading to Oxford, adult advanced ticket with 16-25 railcard. Check times from next Wednesday, after following the link from the email (register for email newsletter first using the link posted earlier, then register on their site and add your N3ctar card). Follow the link from the email then book - N3ctar bonus should be showing on the booking page for the correct tickets (2004 points if it has worked).
