    Bummer

    Mine had trouble unlocking this morning - I had to go and stand towards the back before it responded to the signal from the key. Probably need a new battery in the key. Don't have that problem with the Orion

        If she would accept such a course or just willing pay Sage the £5 they want everything would be fine. But she hasn't grasped the concept that she needs to spend a small amount of money to make her life easier.

        She happily got an over the top and expensive crap bank account because it allows cash to be paid in at the post office. Its just other stuff she is being a pointless tightwad over.

          They like me, have now put me forward to the client and they want to interview me tomorrow.

          The same gig is advertised at but via an agency instead of the consultancy outfit at nearly twice the rate, however the london based agents arent interested in me.

          So do I sell myself out cheap in order to gain the experience that would enable me to move to the big smoke and earn better coin now or do I wait ?

            Ask your GP to give you Indometacin. Works a treat for Gout.

            And of course, bully your GP to give you allopurinol for a few months ...

                I'm due to see the GP for the results of some blood tests for gout, so I'll ask him.

                They can't start the allopurinol during an attack, as it can actually make it worse

                      New battery needed. RAC offered a 5 yr replacement. However I think that the battery will out live the car.
                      Local garage is doing replacement for £50 with 3yr guarantee
