do you agree with me that you should be reimbursed for the costs of taking the item back for replacement/refund?? Our main TV broke down this morning (2 months old), and as it's too big to take on a bus, Im going to have to arrange transport.

Also, on a smaller scale, my husband bought a PS2 game yesterday, and it doesnt work, so he will be out of pocket to return it - not fair is it??

I'm reading Stephen Fry's autobiography and he says that they used to grow asparagus in their garden, and would periodically pour salt over the beds - but he doesn't explain why!

every summer the leechie fruit ripens in our garden and thousands of FOX BATS emerge from jungles around and devour the fruit. workers make noises and also now we tried putting light bulbs on top of trees but this method is not economical. this question is not related to earlier question on small bats staying in verandah. the small bats are approximately six inches across but the FOX BATS are having wing spans of more than a metre.
