    But he is not in Kim's life, any more, is he, Bobarella? Or won't be once she has a new number.

    See, I knew it was a SIM. Clever (clueless, technophobe) Smodlet! :rotfl:

    Well done, Kim.
  • Had a mental few days, I'm shattered.com and just need to sleep off the stress.
    The house is a tip as I'm sorting stuff and packing as I go, what does it always get worse before it gets better??
    I'm konmari-Ing everything as I need the space, hate clutter and more importantly I don't see the point in moving stuff that we don't need or want.
    The house hunting is not going well, I've viewed loads of places but I always seem to not fit the criteria, either I've got too many kids, or they don't like housing benefit top up, or I don't earn enough in their opinion or whatever, it's so disheartening but I'm just gonna keep going until I find somewhere.

    We are with you in spirit, Kim. While it is a very good idea to be prepared for the move, you are allowed to take a day off, now and then. Your LL cannot make you leave without a court order, which takes time. You will find somewhere, with or without the council's help. Is it really not worth trying to contact someone you used to work with to see if they know anyone in the Housing dept. who might know of an LL/LA who would accept you?

    It will get better. Don't know when but it will. Sending you hugs and love thoughts: :grouphug::lovethoug:grouphug::lovethoug:grouphug::lovethoug:grouphug::lovethoug:grouphug::lovethoug:grouphug::lovethoug

    Unfortunately the departments are totally separate, I am sub contracted by the recycling department and housing is in a completely different building in another part of the city and they don't cross over.
    I am viewing 2 more houses tomorrow once I've done the school run.
    I'm trying to find somewhere before my bankruptcy is registered because once that on my credit file it makes it all much harder again.
