    Excellent idea @Hostafan1! Can I count you as a friend maybe?

    To be fair the poor call centre woose did say they haven't yet come to a decision, so why send me a leaflet and provoke my phone call?

    Or why not say on the leaflet - non mobile users will be advised at a later date.
    You can , but I don't use a mobile either.  :|

    To be fair, I'm in there often enough not to need home delivery.

    So you are, quite forgot  :|  and with transport I guess. Oh well, off to eat today's harvest although it feels like a crime to cook the carrots  ;)

    Another change of subject: It is not summer any more, so why oh why, when I am on my Allotments do I have to endure the torture of a very jangled rendition of Teddy Bears Picnic from an ice cream van that menaces the streets around our plots. As the racket drifts away it is then replaced with "The Sun Has got his hat on" from a competitor. THEY ARE DRIVING ME CRAZY.
    Rant over feel a little bit better now...

    Do you get the scrap metal collector with the loud hailer doing his rounds as well? That might be just our local pikeys chaps though.
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    Our local ice cream van used to regularly wake up my justgothertosleep daughter with a rendition of Brahm's lullaby   :s

    We have the scrap collectors with the loudhailers.   SO RAY NERRRR!   My neighbour reckons it's Any Old Iron but I don't believe her.

    And where I used to live, the ice cream van played the Dixieland Trilogy.   It was known as the Klan Van.
