    Thanks Pippo. I had fun with that one but didn't do very well. Wasn't really sure if I could change the resolution on the screen to see more of the picture. :)

    I am quoting my own post in the hope that others come along and add to our list.
    Sorry to post and run this morning, took me a while to realise that you can move the picture along!

    Oh dont you just love when you have a dinner planned, it the potatoes all turn to mush in the pan.

    So chicken and chips instead of chicken, mash and roasters and veg. Oh well, kids are happy.

    Phew, Been to Metro Centre today, lunch with old friend, bit of a wander and then, on my own, a Click and collect dash plus a few small droid shops.....
    Well M&S for the fleece, just turn up, give your name, get your package, brief pleasant chat with SA.
    Boots for No 7 minimal purchase to get free gift - the've changed where you collect again so eventually found it upstairs at the photography counter (?) received 3 separate A 4 sized padded bags, 1 had an extra bubble wrap bag inside and contained 1 small eye shadow, 2nd had the free gift, 3rd had an eyeliner & another free gift!! :j:j:j - each package also contained order details on 2 sheets of paper!

    Off to Debenhams - there you need the message on your phone, never sent me one, or a print out. 3/4 hour later the main package, a L'occitane gift set that was half price has eventually been found but damaged:eek: Got many apologies, a free coffee and now have to ring their contact centre for a refund, as A, they are not allowed to keep my money, and B, their own contact centre would not process the refund for one of their own managers!!
    The item is now out of stock, but she has promised me that she will arrange for me to get it at half price when (if) it comes back into stock!
    A quick call in at A's on the way home to refresh the B&H APG/stocks was uneventful, I'm pleased to say.

    Wine is now calling before I make tea and then eventually settle down for a catch up!

    On mine it's just my phones security code (that I use to open the phone). It tends to ask for it after I do about 4 transactions close together.

    Yes that’s it , me too

    Ok, I think there may be two AP offers going on. Someone more knowledgeable than me may confirm.

    I think the Costa must come from the other one then. I ve only got the one lot of Offers .

    I always microwave my potatoes in a vented microwave dish. Never have a problem.

    Unless you mean the roasters?
