    NorPussII did that when I was working from home and on a conference call.

    Found the bloody remains of the mouse decorating the kitchen floor which was nice

        I splashed out this time and opted to turn my ride fee into a donation to charity in return for a second chance at a spot and a free jersey.

          Look on the bright side, at least you won't get a puncture as you go past my house.

                  While shopping, I learned that Sainsbury's self-service checkouts won't process vouchers for more than 1,000 bonus Nectar points, and even the person tending the till to approve booze and enter unscannable vouchers can't override it. As I'd scanned two vouchers worth a total of 620 points, it balked at my 400-pointer valid on the purchase of £20's worth of wine, and I had to stop by the customer service desk on the way out and get them to do it. Ho hum

                  The error message was really unhelpful, too - something vague about "tender over limit". If it had been one of the Saturday job types manning the decks they'd probably have got confused and made up some gubbins to explain it away; they've pulled that crap on me before and lost me points, or even discounts. But luckily it was the guy who mans them most weekday afternoons, who's pretty smart and knows all the checkout's strange ways
