Hmm, is odd. I shall take pictures if the snow eases enough for me to trudge about outside.

Looks open when closed?

Okay, in my town centre, the council or some other bimbo has plastered over the windows of closed down shops (like Woolworths) and put images of thriving businesses on them so it looks like their still open. Occasionally people go up to them and realise it's only an image, and it looks quite real. W...

Re: You swines!

I haven't caught the flu, and sympathy's to everyone who has it. When I tried sending the flowers, the postman laughed at me, so you're not getting any... But, because I feel I need to compare my pain to the people that have Swine Flu, I've had a cough for a few weeks/months. It's quite annoying, bu...

And a few months ago the Co-operative sent cards out to the EOFCS members that worked in Co-operative shops. EOFCS realised this after a lot of customer cut their old cards up. T...

Re: It's Snowing!

Snowed on New Years Eve here, and snowed right into the new decade. Set, but only a thin layer, enough to one of the giant lanterns going up and away.

Re: iPhone Apps

I don't have an IPhone (yet!) - seems I'm always one of the last to get the latest phones - my fault for preferring to be on PAYG! Anyway, I'm very surprised the TVCatchup app hasn't been mentioned here - lets you watch the majority of Freeview channels (and a few Sky ones) on your phone - I can ru...

Re: What is the Co-op known as where you are?

My Foodstore, Somerfield's & Petrol Stops are the only stores yet to adopt Co-operative branding, and one Foodstore and one Somerfield are almost side by side, with the Foodstore being the store there first, and the Somerfield opening a few days before the Co-op bought them. Also, they are both ...

Re: It's Snowing!

I was out today and even though we haven't seen snow since Sunday/Monday there is still Slurry on the roads and Ice & Crystal Snow on the pavements. I did have a few stumbles today, one which I was warned about but still walked over... It wasn't that bad, quite fun however the ladies opposite di...
