  4. +1 Excel spreadsheet. Where possible avoid someone's app or online database if only for your own privacy.
  5. G'Day and welcome. Be it car parts or gold and silver bibs and bobs....keeping stacking both.👍
  6. Banks in general hate accepting int'l cheques due to clearance risk and time frame for clearance they pose. A standard domestic cheque (personal or bank) will clear in 1-3 days depending on your bank etc. An international cheque has to be processed by the bank (who rec'd it) in the country of presentation then sent all the way back to country (and bank) of issuance for payment to the bank who accepted this....and this could take weeks or months. Thus without knowing a companies specific arrangements with their bank, the bank may have been agreeable to clear the int'l cheque for their client (Negotiated clearance for a % fee) and take the clearance risk due to their relationship with that client hoping the cheque isn't dishonoured by bank of origin and the receiving bank eventually gets paid weeks later....(note, the bank still has the right to reverse the credit if the cheque is dishonoured weeks / months later). More generally, the bank will accept the int'l cheque without crediting funds to the payee's account then send the cheque bank to bank / country of origin (on Collection) for processing, which again takes weeks to await the cheque to clear and the issuing bank to send the funds electronically to the receiving bank.... I suspect that Chard's bank is trying to extract themselves from this service offering given it's a right PITA for any bank these days given the decline in the cheque product use, costs, clearance risk and processing times associated with cheque processing......Will be interested to see if Barclays open this service back up or it's just a step stone to ease the service offering out the door.
  7. I do appreciate the design of the Philly in the main but the use of the comma in lieu of a decimal point in the face value ie 1,50 rather than 1.50 euros sends my OCD into overdrive...How much prettier it would be if but for the for lack of a comma...🤔
  8. Tonight on "Meet the Press" we have And we ask discuss the question "Zimbabwe...how's that change of government going you wanted 40 years ago?".
  9. Tasty.......very tasty that. Well done you.
  10. Absolutely fascinating...well worth taking the time to listen to this presentation.
  11. Got to admit, was tempted to leave it wrapped...it was a work of art 😀. However an xray image of the package to reveal contents wouldn't cut it so, so took the knife to your handy work. ....Enjoy..you betya.
  12. Well it's been a while since I posted in this thread...will have to do some catch up soon with all the car parts that have been coming my way of late....however here's a nice piece that arrived today. Thanks to @Chrispringle85 for being open to sending this fine 2022 SOTD sov to a poor colonial lad. Chrispringle85 did an amazing job on the packaging...Double wrapped to survive an A bomb blast and wrapped better than King Tut.
