Re: MCA Response

Did you need to have a new tube fitted to your navstation? Or did you use a diplexer?

Re: MCA Response

You may not remember these but the old Co-op shops used to have a compression driven tube device which sent your money up to a room where it was checked and change sent back down. A friend of mine stripped the system out of the Kendal Branch and has had it stored for years in a temperature controlled environment. He kindly lent me a section of the device and a foot pump to generate the required pressure...it works a treat, thank you for asking.

So where did you fire your money off to, and did they send any change back?

Strath, me ageing Spey
I stopped dealing in change some time ago as a fully paid up member of the cashless society - I happened to have a considerable number of Green Shield Stamps, bequeathed to me by a long-deceased relative and these were used in payment. As Deceased one was a frequent shopper at the Coop, I'm sure she would be delighted to know that the stamps were put to good use.
Incidently, I have sufficient airmiles now to fly from Oban, possibly all the way to somewhere like Ballachulish, should anyone be in the market.
