I think that B&Q must have finally realised that customers with a Diamond card were waiting until a Wednesday to make their purchases or getting someone with a family member with a Diamond card to make the purchases for them. Quite Right Islay ... I got in there, just before it ended. And with my cautious "wear & tear saving approach" although the guarantee is near up I reckon I'll get another 6 months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suffice to say when I ‘blow the whistle’ politicians from all political parties including the some members of the House of Lords will be running for cover. It will be ‘payback time’ for me. On another note if you can see cruise liners sailing past your house I assume that you either live near the cruise port of Invergordon or in the Elgin/Nairn area.

Hi HK, I have not given that any thought. Suffice to say, I wasted my time working for the Bank of Scotland. I should have been an investigative journalist.
