Yip i'm 3 too and allowed to use my data package out there for a month. I have a sneaky feeling that it is limited i.e. using it for a year!

Just buy a sim when out there seems to be the easiest option; there was some good deals when I went.

cheers westie...you were right I just read the small print-I was just about to order! maximum 2 months ......a local sim it will be then. thanks
:A

Confused.....sorry is your son going to NZ for a year before he starts trying with easyjet or is he going to NZ to do his classroom part?
My dd is the one who rearranges their training every time the simulator breaks down. She has been with EJ for 10 years now first flying then in training delivery.
Good company.

Congrats on your ds working so very hard to start his pilots training.

thanks everyone for the congrats on DS - I am clearly a very proud mum:D:D

VT he is doing ground school and flight training in NZ then back to UK for rest of training- they usually do 6 months UK then 6months NZ then back to UK but sometimes things change - and he is grabbing the chance ! is your daughter at CTC?

I need to return an ill fitting computer game to S, but like a numpty have mislaid the receipt .

Will they accept returns without a receipt? They know it is not stolen as games are kept locked away with dummy boxes on display, but I know the policy is proof of purchase, and I assume the physical item is not sufficient proof .

Many thanks

By not trying to claim any more than £100 on any one account.

This being during the period of a calendar month starting on 1st of each month in GMT and running until the a nanosecond before the moment the 1st of the next month begins but the period covering March doesn't end until 1am on 1st April and, during BST, the period starting at 1am on the 1st of one month and ending at 1am on the first of the next month (if still in BST otherwise ending one hour earlier, i.e. midnight, the moment October becomes November). I know it is complicated but I hope I have explained:rotfl:. Basically, the system is on GMT all year round so "month" means what you normally think of as a month - January, February, March etc. but you have to take it as if we are on GMT whether we are or are not. Means that during the period of summer time, you are waiting an hour longer for the month to begin and also an hour longer from when a shop is done before you can check a receipt. As we are not on BST at the moment, the next APG month is due to start as soon as we are in 2018.

Thanks savvy
You have answered another question I was thinking about...WHAT is the month exactly.

Jeezo it's that long since I glitched that I have forgotten the basics and there is soooo much happening in the glitch world just now of which i'm slowly trying to take part.

Tried android for the first time in tesco yesterday but was stood there like a demented loony turning my phone right, left, up and down, the SS eventually came over (I thought ok she'll sort it for me) only to ask me what I was doing then tell me "i don't know a thing about tech" So I gave up! I'll try another day...another shop.

And another thing, Esther Ranzten advertising a no win no fee claims company?

That is like MSE Martin going to the dark side - she was the original consumer champion .

Michael Owen is on radio adverts for an accident management company too - times must be desperate for them after the height of their fame and fortune .

Philip Schofield has recently sold his soul too.

Nooo

Anon I think they perfectly picked Esther for that job knowing the supposed trust she would have had from loyal fans. Such a shame she accepted.
