Thanks for that, I hadn't heard of it. I'll look into it. 👍🏻

 

You'll need to sign up for Revolut / Monzo / other service who provide it.  It's pretty handy, you sign up with their app, pay a couple of quid to get a card delivered, then you just top it up using the App.  I use mine as my regular every day card, works with Google Play as well. 

 

The disposable cards also make things like ordering football shirts from dodgy websites a bit more safe

 

Really easy to create a disposable card, and then even if they nick your details, the card won't work. Perfect for online

Yeah the virtual cards are handy, and reassuring.

I like Monzo, they have another feature where you can get your wages from 4pm the day before they're due. Nice little perk.

Thanks guys. That certainly looks like the way to go. I just wish the TSB had explained how someone could get my card details before I'd recieved the card. The card was cancelled one day and a replacement ordered, the new card details were used the next day and I received the card the day after that. It's just mad, it got me thinking someone at the bank was at it. .

…. and while I’m at it, I see the ‘temporary’ replacement ferry -which was already older and smaller than the usual one - on the Corran-Ardgour route (known to a few on here) has now also broken down and the service has been suspended for “days”.  This will mean a long detour through Ft Wm (can take an hour on a busy day) and then down the other side of the Loch on a wholly inadequate single track road.

Now being reported that the replacement (47 years old) will be out for ‘weeks’ - possibly all summer.

Nice that “Highland” Council found £10s of millions to build a spare bridge over the canal in Inverness while sitting on their hands about Lochaber though.

Just found out that our vet practice is now charging £20 to do the simple  admin of submitting a claim to Petplan on your behalf to get paid for the bulk  of the pet's surgery bill.    If you don't pay the £20 upfront,  the vet demands FULL payment of the surgery bill  BEFORE  they'll do the surgery, and you have to submit a claim yourself to get some money back  from Petplan.

 

Our practice used to be family owned - and the senior nurse was on the ball with doing all insurance claims.     They gave up & retired when Brexit made it difficult to obtain vet medicines  (the big boys hoovered most of them up as bulk buyers)  .... and now one of the big boys (CVS) owns the practice.  Guess what - consulting fees up by 25% and now this monetising of  a simple admin service.

My vet just charged me £90 for ear drops that Amazon sell for £18. Because they are prescribed you need the vet's approval though, so little hope of getting them at that price as its no profit for them.

Ridiculous isn't it.  I  found out last year that there are some vet "medicines" that are actually identical to human ones. All marked up on price too -  Omeprazol  tablets to settle a dogs stomach.  Also an eye drop (can't remember the name) to stop itching & irritation.  You have to sign a form to say you accept the risk of using these because they're not "officially"  for animals.   

 

One of the vet nurses told me recently that its ok to give small quantities of Kelloggs All-Bran to dogs in their food to help them "go poo-poo".

YouTube have some interesting clips where home made recipe's they say are as affective as vet meds. One I watched used canesten cream and Aloe Vera for a fungal ear infection in a dog or cat. 

I would be nervous trying that though, even more so with the All Bran 😄

My cat gets human epilepsy drug Gabapentin to chill him out before going to the vets because he's a shitebag. Works a treat.

I did open an account with them, but will only be using it to fund disposible cards as and when needed, which won't be very often. Thanks for the heads up though.

Not sure if that's due to being a child in the 80’s or the schemie in me, I can't shake; despite my many efforts 
 

Missus has the show recorded, albeit none of these techniques seem to be rubbing of on her 😡 Might check out after all we need more master chef wankers imo. 
 

Anyway the DOMs and my shit fitness  I've not been exercising very much lately outside lifting. Went and did a bit boxing training and some bag work. **** there is not a part of me that doesn't hurt. Laughing, coughing or sneezing makes me want to cry.
