BBQ's still on for tonight :

Minted lamb kebabs + prawn and monkfish skewers + Sweet Chilli chicken wings.

Popped into the Thatchers shop as I came through Sandford and picked up a few http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=thatchers&um=1&hl=en&sa=N&biw=1280&bih=687&tbm=isch&tbnid=bmCJtOOR6...

I don't have it on the note only the other phone and the tablet. Maybe it's because I'm in Thailand but Modbro plays for 30 seconds and then freezes. Can't do anything with it so not much good for me at the moment

That's weird because when you manage to scroll through all the apps within Mobdro you can get programmes from all over the world. I flicked onto a news programme from Asia yesterday...(I didn't understand a word but I was just testing it out)

Maybe it's the wifi in the apartment. I'll try it now in the bar....

I would try it at different times of the day Steve. To be honest I tried mine first thing yesterday morning and I had a couple of oops messages. When I tried it about 10 am..it came on with no problems.

i have tried at various times of the day but to be honest I have little time for TV. I didn't even watch the England game because it was at 2am here and I've so much to sort out with the new house at the moment.

For instance, I transferred £50K into my Nationwide account. No problems but when I wanted to make a payment of £10K deposit it was referred to the fraud department. 40 minutes on soddin' hold before I got it sorted. Thank god for TU!!!

Not surprised at that. When we bought my wife's last car I got referred to fraud for a little over 1k!!
Hope it goes a little smoother now though...

To be fair @jonsie and using Nationwide myself...I say damn good call by them. I would rather the fraud team show caution than let a large sum like that be withdrawn. I know it's a pain but.......

We recently bought a new car. It was picked up on Monday. As I was in Spain I actually let Nationwide know there would be a large amount withdrawn from our joint account back in the UK...Thankfully it went without a hitch. Damn good job as I think it would have reduced my other half to tears had payment been declined

I presume they can "see" a Thailand connection ?

With Nationwide you have the ability to log the dates when you are out of the country and in which country you'll be.

There is also their secure (when logged on) message system.
