Have just booked my Christmas flight with Ryanair (yes, I know). Has anyone ever signed up to this Shopper Discounts & Rewards thingy they are advertising? Apparently I can get a £15 voucher for my next Ryanair flight (provided I book within the next 3 months) and it's free for the first 30 days and £10 per months thereafter. They claim it's easy to cancel at any time but I am always a bit skeptical if I have to provide my card details somewhere. Anyone ever done it and cancelled before the 30 days are over? Is it hassle free?

South-East members might like to note that it's the London - Brighton Veteran Car Run today, so watch out if you're using the A23 and expect delays both ways, especially early AM, when they all set off in a bunch. Later they spread out so it's not so bad.

It is supposed to brighten up later... can't tell what's going on as we have no windows at work.

We're over the worst of it, the sun came even out earlier. Still terribly windy though.

Same in NW London yesterday. Meant the excess water in my handwashing dripped out sooner than it usually would. Hurrah! Missed a jumper though. Isn't that always the way?! Grrr!
