    I will clarify, however, that my warning was absolutely nothing to do with ebay or GWR so people are free to continue discussing those deals (unless anyone has been warned off them!)

    What have you done now?! :rotfl:

    she needs one of those metal card holders you can get from Amazon for a few pounds, they are not very sturdy but at least you can keep the cards together and its easier to find at the bottom of a Mary poppins Gladstone bag
    My metal one gave up the ghost very quickly :mad:


    I know have slimmed down purse/wallet with a few bank/credit cards in and the loyalty cards I use frequently; then I have my bus pass wallet that has the pass and the Jl and waities cards as I only use them when I go to town: I also have a a lovely bright orange (easy to see) card holder for all the other loyalty cards. I bought the card holder in France a few years ago for 2 Euros - for about a year afterwards I would set off the security alarms in random shops, but particularly Tesco both going in as well as going out. One day I found one of those metal/electronic security tags in the back of it!

    Oh, I forgot, a lot of loyalty cards on my car keys, if grumpy is driving and I don't have cards/keys to hand we almost have WW3 if I make him wait until I find the card!

    Based on my purchases, if you make a purchase before 7pm on a weekday, then the points are added the next evening around 10.30pm. I haven't made a purchase after 7pm so can't comment on whether that would arrive the following evening.

    As long as your Nectarine card number is entered correctly on the Guinness World Record website and the email confirmation shows the extra 1k points then you should receive them with no problems.

    Collection not required. I am, however, going to contact local schools in Reading to see if they would like to take their pupils on an educational visit to Oxford for the day.

    If no interest then I'm going to contact local schools in Oxford to see if they would like to take their pupils on an educational visit to Reading for the day.

    I think they could learn a lot from drunken passengers at 00:30h (i.e. how not to behave).

    I'm such a :A:rotfl:

    I do worry in case the local Safeguarding Teams open an inquiry re the missing children who don't turn up for their trains.

    I have signed up my ma to Guinness World Records and added her Nectarine card to it. 2k pts form filled in AFTER 12.30pm, email received with 2k pts link promo and train booked AFTER 12.30pm. Quite a few hours after actually...

    ...2k pts shown on confirmation page and in email order. I'm 80% sure they'll be sitting in my ma's Nectarine account tomorrow evening.

    Time will tell.
