Thanks yeknomyeknom, that would be great. I'll PM you!

I always go for the free delivery. It usually arrives quite quickly. Have to spend the minimum, though.

Blimey!

Thanks for that Marienne (I'm looking for the same thing!), they do mention kitchen mirrors so hopefully they do heat resistant ones.

Don't you have to pay for the Amazon pick up at the Co-op?

I think I still couldn't understand it even with the brightly coloured crayons ....

Most of the places suggested above, plus Leigh-on-Sea?

Ah, OK, thanks, hadn't realised Sainsbury's owned Argos. That does make sense then.

But then what would be the point of not letting the current leaseholders continue there? Have I missed something? (probably)

On the face of it, putting a towel rail and loo roll holder on the wall would seem to be relatively quick and simple jobs. Were there some complications which caused the charge to be so (what seems to be) extremely high? How long did the job take?

Sainsbury's aren't doing very well financially, are they? It reminds me of when Homebase had some other company taking space in their stores (?Laura Ashley?) They folded quite soon after that.

Excellent. Somewhere a bit nearer than Peckham to go and moan (again) about the crap greenhouse they sold me :)) To be fair, they've changed it once, possibly twice, I can't remember .....

I do sympathise. I was with AOL for a long time as my internet provider, in pre broadband days, mainly because it was what someone suggested I use back in the day and it always seemed too much of a hassle to change because I too thought I would have to jump through hoops to change my email. I was really horrified to discover that my AOL email addresses had nothing whatsoever to do with AOL being my internet provider. They had always led me to believe that it had. I changed from AOL to Plusnet (though I'm with BT at the moment for broadband, though once my contract runs out I shan't be) and changed my AOL email to gmail. Oh, and I still have my two old AOL email addresses, which I occasionally check just in case (as gmail has long stopped forwarding any mail which goes there), so I imagine you can do the same with BT email addresses, though - oviously - check! And also check whether you can move away from BT as your broadband provider but still use your existing BT email addresses, which I suspect you probably can (but they won't tell you that unless pushed, because they want to keep you as a broadband customer).

Excellent! That place has been an eyesore for years!

That's good news! Thanks for letting us know!

PeckhamRose Wrote: ---------------------------------------------- 2. Lots > of people and businesses have our email address. > It would be a nightmare to change! PeckhamRose, I found it really easy to change to a Gmail address. Not from a BT address admittedly, but surely the process is the same? They sort everything for you, then forward the mail from your old address for a month (I think it was, may have been longer). It's all free. I had no problems at all. You can have more than one gmail address if you need to, for different purposes. If you Google I'm sure you can find out all about it! They import all the contacts from your old email system, and all the emails. ETA: Surely you don't have to have a BT address just because you have BT broadband? I've presently got BT broadband (never again) but I've never had a BT email address.

:(

I would pay not to have to go to it :)) :)) :))

Haven't been there for decades, and judging by the comments above don't think I will now. Do they still have that circular staircase, or have I imagined that?

Thanks for posting this, I hadn't heard of it before but will hopefully be going.
