Bad luck !! Been nice and sunny here to day 15 deg, for how long not sureAfternoon folks.
Well its blooming chilly so have lit the fire early. We have some small white fluffy stuff falling, but nowhere near enough to worry about yet, might be a different story in the morning as it creaps up on us overnight

Not really, we have had a few nice sunny days which warms the house. Its to be expected. But we have burnt less wood this year, sofar.
We have to drive to the "big town" to go see that Aston Villa supporting violin player on the 15th so we really dont want a foot of the stuff then, so better now

Just got an email from TLSContact telling us that "after thorough investiagtion" we are not entitled to a refund for the canclled appointment we made as it was flipped up due to their poop website.
They either did listen to the telephone calls and decided to ignore the fact that their employees said "don't worry, you will get a refund" or they didn't listen to them, or they don't exist.
I'll be recording them myself in future. Barmy or what?
It's "only" £47 but that isn't the point.
Grrrr!!!

You tip the acid out into a container, you then mix a bicarbonate and water solution up and fill the battery to the top to cover the plates should fizz up leave for 2-3 hrs flush out with clean water replace the acid put on full charge, New battery as its the plates that scale up stopping the charge from holding,

I know they have a monopoly but the website is seriously so poop that next time we are considering driving up there purely to make an appointment for the interview.
Mad.
And the dogs only sleep until next year.
(Just my telling them that I am recording it might make them straighten up and fly right.

At the end of the day, TLScontact do not issue or refuse visas, it is only the embassies of the countries that can do that. All they do is collate paperwork and supposedly organise interviews at which the paperwork is handed in and checked. And then the handing over of applications to the embassies and finally the handing back of passports. So yes, they might be able to make things awkward but they cannot deny anyone a visa.Dont kick up a fuss till you have your visas

If this happens next time, especially if the IT system makes things any worse, I may well contact the French government department direct and see if they can put any pressure on them to get their act together.
I haven't looked but there may well be a Faceache group for disgruntled users.
Its been a bad day. The helpful call from Barclays about Fraud turned out to be scammers again (they are getting clever) that spoofed Barclays Calling Line ID to make my phone tell me its Barclays calling.
Anyway, because I was feeling "edgy" I had moved all the money out of the account to another one and I gave Barclays a call myself and the scam was revealed. I must be going double-daft in my dotage. So, Card cancelled and new one instantiated so I can carry on. Cross with myself for not instantly twigging the second scam immediately as it was happening. But the scammer wasn't the usual poor grammar, poor speech patterns type it was properly spoken perfect educated clear chat with nothing but solicitous good-vibes and customer care. In reality all he was doing was mining for a second shot at the prize as the card details he already had were now defunct. There's no fool like an old fool is there.

Soooo many computer systems, especially one's whose hearts are old, are not very good to put it politely. And as they are "updated" or new "things" are stuck on them, insufficient testing is carried out. so disasters and minor problems are more or less a certainty.
My wife, as I am sure you remember, will not touch online banking or banking through an "app", due to her knowledge of these systems.

Yep. Not holding its charge ain't good. Car batteries dun't last more than 5 years unless abused. Tis always a shame to lose one. Especially whennits bin a good friend. Sorry to hear of yer loss.
