TFL's Oyster system.

Tried to renew my travelcard over the weekend, ordered it online and zapped my card to upload the ticket. Apparently, thanks the laughable design of their website, I have managed to order the travelcard on an Oyster I reported lost last year.

No problem, I thought. I'll get them to transfer the order to my current card. I phoned them and apparently they cannot do this. I asked about cancelling the order, and was told it would take 5-7 days. They advised me a wait a couple of days. Apparently when the ticket is not uploaded after a couple of days, the order will be cancelled automatically and my card will be refunded.

Unfortunately, I have to wait as the ticket is over £1,000, and I cannot afford to lose that amount.

Why on earth would the website enable me to order a ticket on a card that has been reported lost? Why, when this does happen, do they not offer a way to correct it quickly?

Went to IKEA today which was ok but I pushed myself round and it looks like I did too much

I'm just irritated because I refuse to let it all beat me and I should be able to do more by now.

Remember Dilli the body can take a long while to heal so don't get irritated and just do what you can do as its important that you don't overdo it as that can set you back even more.

I'll swap if you want dilli, you can have my body and I'll take your body. And all problems swap as well.

There are only two people that spring to mind I'd do that to. But I'm not that nasty yet

I am just getting over a horrible sore throat and hacking cough but have been lucky that the small ulcer I got from continually sucking Strepsils seems to be going.

John's moan is that I seem to be getting my voice back after over a week of just being able to manage the odd whisper..

Well the ulcers aren't aided by the heavy head cold I'm also suffering..What I currently feel about people who don't stay at home with a cold but go out and spread it forth would get me banned if I put it into words.

l hope you get better soon Maggy as there is nothing worse then being under the weather.

My lovely eldest son leaving the bathroom an absolute mess for me to tidy first thing this morning, at 22 he really should know better. I can only assume he came home a little worse for wear last night or should I say the early hours of this morning. Although I must say it is not like him as he usually leaves things the way he finds them.

Maybe somebody else is guilty?

Is he suffering today. Weenie

He didn't seem to be suffering nashville as he went out for lunch with his mates before starting his 8 hour shift (2-10) at Sainsburys.

People who promise to do things, and then don't stick to it. Went for an interview for a work placement kind of thing through the Jobcentre, bloke said he would call the woman in charge of it with a start date for us. This was supposed to be 2 weeks ago (the phone call anyway), with the provisional start for this morning. Apparently, when chased by Jobcentre they hadn't decided on how many of the 9 interviewees they want to train and when they want the training to start for those successful ones.
