Huh!
Octopus got back to me after I tore them off a strip about now having to have downloaded an app before I can benefit from "Saving Sessions"!
They gave me BS about it being a misunderstanding but have "opted you into the Octoplus scheme from our end", in other words accepted that demanding I download an app, when I don't want to, is a bit discriminatory.
So all is well that ends well.
So happy that my complaint actooly resulted in a positive outcome, for once.

'Er indoors bought some curtains from them this week, Ultra blackout type. Shop wouldn't take them back as they were out of the packaging, and she lost the receipt. They cost a lot, don't hang right, and had to have the blackout parts cut off to get them anything like. Most (if not all) their stuff is grossly overpriced chy knees tat. She used to be able to go to a high street shop with her measurements, and get curtains hand made with quality fabrics. Those days are gone
Just asked wifey about this. she gets lots of stuff from them and says you can choose your fabric etc and they will make you made to measure stuff. she says they stock good makes as well as others. So she has nothing negative to say about them.'Er indoors bought some curtains from them this week, Ultra blackout type.

I bought alot of their teddy stuff, bedding and blankets. I find it good. Even bought a big blanket to turn into a cardi. It's fab and so warm but some can be hit and miss. Bought no end of poplin for mask masking and now I tend to go in for wool.'Er indoors bought some curtains from them this week, Ultra blackout type.

Yer the question was asked if they should boot him out, going to let him stay ftm but he's been warned no-one will be taking
his abuse & if anything happens again hes ooot.
Sorry I prefer the Marlin (here have a virtual slap)
but id fit wire wheels instead of the bbs copys.
Is he just a fud because he owns a boat. It's not that guy that got your back up on the boat thread is it
Na he owns a floating caravan
Not all of them are fuds
Don't forget yer passportIm off to Biiiiiirrrrrmmingggham (in there accent) at 4am trailer & tipper hooked up ready to go.
Well as I have shown you before and as you can see in the pic, my Marlin does have wires.Sorry I prefer the Marlin (here have a virtual slap)
I am just thinking, vaguely, of making a hard top for it and thence why not an airline style one. It would go with the period and W and I are deeply into Art Deco.
(We honeymooned in the Agatha Christie suite in the Burgh Island hotel for heaven's sake!)
You have to be real careful with Airline styling to not make it look yuk, but properly done it looks the dog's doodahs.
The example I put up could simply be not the best one, but I put it up.....
Oh I can't be going on like this..... too late!!!
Sleep well folks!!!

@Wimblowdriver .
We had new curtains in the front room and all three bedrooms this year.
Was cheaper to get em measured, made and fitted by Hilarys. Not only that but the fitter was able to string them to open from the one side where required.

It's just about not raining at the moment although it has obviously had an active time during the night. Rain or no rain just don't let it spoil your day.
