Tried to get food today. They say debit transaction didnt go through. Checked account charged 2 times.

Showed the workers and they nothing they can do.

So probably out 12 bucks.

I think I am done with electronic payments. Nothing but problems with debit.

The new hole! A newly discovered cave in a remote valley in British Columbia might be the country's largest.

How can I convince my OH that I deserve to fly to either Toronto or Vancouver to see Queen next year, as a fanclub member (sad I know) I can get the presale tix today, not cheap plus a flight, I tried selling Toronto to him last night as a recce, I mean we might even be there by then if the planets all line up.

Tell him if he doesn't let you do this, you'll force him to listen to Nickelback.

Nice to know you lot have my back lol. So i checked to see how much the tix actually cost, the lower priced ones just over 100 bucks plus fees are down to single seats only, next tier goes to 200 bucks and more, so I shall have to wait until General sale tomorrow, I'll be working and not able to go online when the tix go on sale, so I shall be lucky if I can get tix at all. May just have to wait until the UK leg is announced.
