^Me too, anita . Being fair, I do clock up about £100 worth of Amazon credit a year, so it isn't all bad. Do you ever get the ones where they send you free food? I did one last year that was totally delicious - £5 to sit around eating snacks (and they sent enough to last for a week). Had 3 bags of popcorn once & washing up liquid. Also some drinks [ not alchohol unfortunately] from Tesco. I too claim lots of Amazon credit. This morning since it was sorted was able to claim the last bit of payment to allow me the ALW autobiography & box cd set for free. [ Also the book was extra cheap as I ordered it ages ago.]

I belong to one of these survey websites where they pay you to do surveys. I don't know if it's the snow but this afternoon I've completed 4 & not been paid for any of them. Really p****d off. Funny, I belong to two as well, and had a slew of surveys in, too. I get really annoyed when you answer a load and then it goes "sorry, quota full" on you. If you are on ValuedOps, I've had a row with them several times now about wasted time. The result is that if you are refused after about 9 clicks of data, you can usually complain and get paid even though you don't complete the survey. That's what I do now. Did clock up 3 today, though, paying ones. Yes it was them. They have paid me now & apologised that there was a problem yesterday. They seem to think we like doing them. - I don't . Just need the money!

I've seen it & it was packed. It was good but I prefered "Sunny Afternoon". Steve Marriott comes over as a pretty unlikeable person - very arrogant. Cast excellent.

I'm planning to visit India in June. I'm waiting it so much. But it will be in 4 months ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png) There is so beautiful and I hope that I will like it. Did somebody visit India? Just look how it is amazing! My daughter went to India & hated it. She particularly disliked how she , as a woman , was regarded & treated. - Her husband found it hilarious. [ It was his dream to go there ]. - Which only went to show just how little he knew her. They were supposed to be there for 3 months [ honeymoon] - they returned in 6 weeks.

I think it must be true about Michael Ball as just had an email from his fanclub about the rumour & giving a link for tickets since they are already on sale.

Well it's 9.30 on a Monday morning and I've already been rejected from a job. So I'm sure that's a good omen for the week ahead. It can only get better Emi.

Excusing themselves to the row with "sorry, emergency granny sitting to arrange." I like the idea of an emergency granny. Useful service. I think I'm that.

At "All or Nothing" last night every time the band played this couple got up & started dancing. I felt so sorry for all the people behind them who wouldn't be able to see a thing. They were in their seventies probably & he obviously thought he was a great dancer. - He wasn't. No ushers appeared to stop them.

I too was wondering if anyone has heard who is replacing Ross Noble. - It will be a hard act to follow.

^ £865 for annual membership, plus £250 joining fee. That's very nearly the price of a ticket for Hamilton! (The only time I've been was for an art exhibition.) Blimey - It's a good job Saturday is free then.

On Saturday I'm at the Hospital Club Hark at you, hobnobbing with the rich and famous. Is it for rich & famous.? The only other time I've been there was for a tv recording of Alan Davies show on "Dave".

While we're on the subject, what's the etiquette around asking the couple in front of you to swap seats so you're not behind the taller of the two? Are you just meant to suck it up as the luck of the draw, is it acceptable to ask, is it acceptable to ask but only if you've checked if your neighbour is okay with it, or is it something that Miss Manners has never actually covered? To avoid the risk of any kind of nasty confrontation, I think I'd rather go and get myself a booster cushion... Or a hatpin!

His comments made it more interesting. I liked him sticking up for himself.

What about Michael Crawford or Jim Dale? What a very silly man!

Previous series's were good but this one is so boring. It doesn't help that of the 12 "stars" [ & I use the term lightly] I've only heard of 4 of them.
