He had a 'holiday card with more than enough cash on it on it and so wanted to use that.. to use up the cash. He wanted 15L The card machine rejected his card because it wanted to ring fence €500 until the transaction was processed!!! and he had somewhat less than €500. Machine says NON! He used his credit card. Edited June 30, 2022 by Gerontious 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

husoi Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 (edited) Weekend starts today with a trip to Manchester. Friday 9am appointment in Portuguese Consulate. After this, come back home to see if cat is still alive Would prefer to take my time coming up again and enjoy the ride. Meaning that Sat, after caring for the damn thing I'll be out again The girl I'm taking is the Pan. Faster and long range to allow fewer stops.

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 It is my wife's birthday, a significant one, so we have the family staying. I'm on catering duties, putting up gazebos, mowing the lawns, but first fixing the bathroom vents after last week's wasp incident. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billy sugger Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Looking for things to cook in an air fryer. Treated myself to a 4ltr jobby from Tower, and it's brilliant. I'm now finding out you can cook more in it than mentioned in the manual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
