Good luck trying to save it, but I wouldn't put my fiver on it, it's all just a numbers game for someone 'on high'. Solution is simple - There is only one language the banks understand - Loss of busniness through accounts being closed. Don't grumble, would suggest everyone simply switches to the one that actually sees fit to retain a local branch otherwise you will end up losing that one as ...
...and if something terrible happened to you sister/wife/daughter/child... Agreed not to necessarily repeat the name but good to know the drift of what is currently possible.
If you are not on 'Checkatrade' or recommended by someone they trust then most people won't pick up the phone.
@Cassandra - for the vast majority of contestants i think it is fair to say it probably is non-political. One has to feel some sympathy for the Russian twins getting booed everytime they got points.

In the meantime you may be able to register yourself to hear it. The lecture is available to view online. Attendees had the opportunity to put questions to the panel. The questions (copy printed below) were not covered during the ...
Thing is, it was a poke in the eye to a certain person who preaches morality with the barrels of AK47s. Dang, should have put a fiver on it! Not that unusual, there was 'Dana International' (Israel, 1998) who also won.
How about offering the driver / guide free refreshments somewhere and simply talk to them. They will be familiar with feedback plus their thoughts could be captured as well. @Mcjrpc - now you mention it, i know of one town centre in surrey with a hilly high street where there has recently been introduced a free to ride electric buggy (bit like a large golf buggy). it is sponsored by ...
