Received text this morning inviting me to apply for energy rebate. Have double checked on Google- or rather, duck duck go - to get confirmation that no-one needs to apply. It's sent automatically. It's so evil, these scams - some people really worried about their finances will fall for it and will stand to lose more as I suspect the link will eventually request bank details. Needs a public information constant reminder on TV and radio. Advice is to report it but I am not sure how to do that - forward the text, but to who? -

Can anyone enlighten me on equivalents for gas marks and electric fan ovens? I have looked at the conversion charts but I have one recipe from the 60s (madeira cake, Philip Harben) which says gas mark 3 (my conversion chart says 170 so I have set fan oven at 160). A recent recipe for something else (chocolate and beetroot brownies) has gas mark 5, fan oven 170 in the actual instructions - I bake these regularly. Dilemma!!!! I used to bake the madeira regularly but haven't for years and certainly not since I have had a fan oven. Did the gas marks change at some time with North Sea Gas???? -

I thought others might like to know this. I have just successfully ordered a free pack of 7 lfts The info on accessing these has been a bit elusive as a gov website said packs would automatically be sent to those eligible. (Incl over 75s) but no sign of that - you'd think that they would have been up and ready for April 1st, esp as some chemists had run out of them before then ( as people have been buying them up - no rationing, I think - unsuccessful management of activity in a brewery comes to mind!!!) You can access them through the NHS app, and it's dead easy - well, the order has been acknowledged anyway - remains to be seen when they arrive. Apparently you can order every 3 days. -

We had our boosters yesterday. We were encouraged to accept Moderna - but I chose to continue with Pfizer. It is just as well I did, as in my husband's Moderna information leaflet it stated that it contained macrogol, which I am allergic to. The on line proformas you are asked to fill in ask about any allergic reactions to your last Covid 19 vacvinations, but don't ask about other allergies. Also, although the leaflet says read before having the vaccination, everyone was given it after receiving the vaccination! Needs to be organised differently - most people were waiting a bit - they could be given the information and directed to the section on contents of the medicine. Or people could be given the on line link to the information leaflets when they receive confirmation of the booking. If I had accepted the Moderna I could have ended up in A and E. So if anyone knows they have allergies it would be a good idea to look up the leaflet on line beforehand or ask to read it before the procedure.
