But if they say "we want your ???" then people get stroppy. If they spend ten minutes to print out an A4 bit of paper that says "we're a dolphin-friendly fair trade additive-free organic no child labour green happy sort of place that doesn't even use capital letters" then people seem to forget that _any_ retailer's bottom line is "we want your ???" and are more easily fooled into parting with their money...

I'm less and less comfortable with people posting potentially libellous statements re: some businesses. Unless someone can prove Somerfields are complicit in the cloning activities (as opposed to it possibly happening there) then they would be within their rights to "take action"

    • Well done LG      and thanks as always  RD for sorting out     enjoy summer
    • We’ve just done a loft extension and needed it all painted as well as touch ups to the rest of the house. Our experience with Hussein and his team was great. Communication good, they turned up on time every day, and completed the job in the time frame initially stated. The finished job looks great, I would definitely recommend.
    • Sue, we are in a similar position - though not quite as ancient as you! 🤣 Ours is a 21 year old Honda Civic.  Reliable as hell, IS ULEZ compliant, passes all the tests, MOTS etc.  BUT, as it sits on the drive most of the time, is now as dead as a doornail to the extent that we can no longer open it with the fob, though we are able to open the passenger door only, with the key.  Jump leads didn't work, so hubby bought a "starter" similar to what breakdown companies use.  Nowt.  Hubby then called out the AA who were able to start it via their van.  However, the AA advised leaving the car running for at least an hour and a half.  We decided not to do that as the fumes would be unpleasant for us and our neighbours.  They also informed us that unless we replaced the battery, we would not be able to call them out again.  Long story short, once we turned the engine off it wouldn't re-start.  So, hubby has now bought a trickle charger from Argos (roughly £35 and AA approved).  Apparently it could take up to 100 hours to charge and given that we don't want to leave it charging overnight or in the rain, it will be a while before we will know whether this has solved the issue.  So, watch this space! I am hoping this £35 will be a good investment.
