    I cannot contact any Vodafone customer in Grange and all calls go straight to voicemail.

    Anyone know what the problem is?

    Those specials are great value alright..

    .. although I do think adding salsa to a cheese toastie and calling it a "Mexican Cheese Toastie" is a bit rich! :D

    Now a few more crushed chillies and you might get away with it.

    It flies either over or almost over my house and this evening I could hear it going over despite the TV being on. I usually can't hear it at all from inside so maybe it was lower than usual. :confused:

    There is a post office machine in the Tesco arcade. You can post parcel and letters there, I think it's a great idea. The queue was so long in the post office and I was able to go to the machine and post my parcel there.

    Have used it a few times, found it to be a bit tempermental though in terms of trying to select what type of stamp you wanted, quanity and payment type. Had to restart my selection a few times each time I used it.

    It is a good idea though, would wonder how much its costing An Post though, dont think I have ever seen it being used.

    I had a call today from "the maintenance department" about my computer which I immediately recognised as a scam and fobbed off but I got a surprise when I looked at the number from which the call was (apparently) made - 00 253 802038. This is a Djibouti telephone number.
    There must be a lot of money in these scams if people call from Horn of Africa!

    This is the second scam call in a week which suggests that Sligo is being targetted at present. Beware!
