Well we lost KP now Golden Wonder shame really but mainly down to people's eating habits and money grabbing Walkers.
Walkers have been offering supermarkets so much cash to sell there own brand and stop selling other brands. I did see a program about Golden Wonder a year ago telling us they are re-iventing themselves but I guess it just didn't work out.
However I heard a rumour that Golden Wonder also come under 'Nobby's'
Anyone know

Dear Sir/Madam
Penalty & unfair charges – request for refund for [YOUR NAME, SORT CODE, and ACCOUNT NUMBER]
[INSERT DETAILS of how charges were applied i.e. how much was charged, how much over agreed overdraft or credit limit and how long did you exceed limit for etc.,]
I am of the view that your charges represent a penalty and are therefore irrecoverable at common law. In the Scottish case of Castaneda and Others v. Clydebank Engineering and Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. (1904) 12 SLT 498 the House of Lords held that a contractual party can only recover damages for actual or liquidated losses incurred from a breach of contract. This is also the position in English law: Dunlop Pneumatic Tyre Co Ltd v New Garage and Motor Co Ltd [1915] AC 79. Your charges do not reflect any actual or real loss, instead they appear to represent a lucrative profit-making scheme.
On a separate note, your charges appear to represent an unfair term of contract which is contrary to the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999 (SI. 1999/2083). My account falls within the ambit of Regulation 5 of the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999 as I am a consumer. Your charges constitute an unfair penalty under reference to paragraph 1(e) of schedule 2 of the said regulations:
‘Indicative and non-exhaustive list of terms which may be regarded as unfair - 1. Terms which have the object of effect of - (e) requiring any consumer who fails his obligation to pay a disproportionately high sum in compensation’.
0n 26 July 2005 the OFT stated that 'a charge is likely to be disproportionately high if it is more than a court would be likely to award if the lender sued the cardholder for breach of contract'. Because your charges include a lucrative profit margin, in addition to actual loss, they are irrecoverable as an unfair term in contract.
I believe that your charges require me to pay a disproportionately high sum in compensation for being overdrawn without mutual agreement.
Please refund these charges to my account within the next 7 days, or I will commence court proceedings without any further notice.
Yours faithfully

In Topic: Party-time
10 December 2005 - 02:42 PM
well i think party-time will be with us for many years to come with more and more new party-time machines will be coming on the market.
Some people say party-time is like a random machine and if sum1's putting shit loads of money in 1 its best playing the free one even though its paid out, but I don't nessary agree wiv that becos I have out well over 100 quid in before and its pays out well when u put quite abit in. And very rarely you hear it dropping at the bottom but then I heard a rumour that the dropping noise at the bottom is a fix to make ppl think it's full especially those wiv the tv screen on the main feature cos every party-time machine on that one you hear it dropping at the bottom.
It's a real hard machine to understand in a way, i think your probably best and safer playing the 10p ago ones.

Well I put £12 in a £500 won nothing this sly tosser came along played 1 game at £2 and won £500 I was playing the machine next to him by this time, I was f*****g gutted. He didn't even smile about it well one good thing it only paid £260 out so they asked him to come back later... Ahh I hate that
Oh I saw a women play it for 3 days solid put £2000 GRAND IN lost the lost she fell to the floor and passed out she was f***ed, poor woman however they have put these huge signs saying DO NOT CHASE THE JACKPOT THIS MACHINE PLAYS AT COMPLETE RANDOM..
I would suggest sticking afew quid in and just leaving them, they arn't worth it

ok the jpm (beta) think is kinda installed but i think its corrupt because it wont let me agree to the rules its all shaded off and a timer is just going down.
Di I need to re-install or not and wot site is it I need to do it from.
Once I have done that do I download games from here and open them up in the same way as i do from bellfruit and keep them all in the same document.. the bellfruit one is fine its just the beta one thats messing up.
Also monitors are you able to giv me access to download more fruit machines cos I downloded loads and now I have had to delete them cos I got abit stuck wiv this (Beta) thing .. thanks
