Is it spam? I thought it was just wafflings.... couldn't see that it was promoting anything...but to be honest I don't really get it so it could be! I'll trust you gnb and report!
Thanks for all the kind words re my finances. It's wonderful not to feel alone. When I first found out yesterday on the phone to the bank that everything was over the od limit, she did ask why and I told her about the tribunal and the stoppage of salary for 4 months. They've upped my credit limit and given a fee free £250 on the joint account where the mortgage and c tax goes out from so that's a bit of a buffer - but doesn't feel great to know you're going into more debt, so bitter sweet really.
I have thought about posting my soa but - and here's a clue - I don't actually know much of it really even though I'm allegedly in charge of finances in this house:o:o
Re the baby scan - am I alone in not being able to make them out??? Absolutely no offence meant to yoursil, pigpen!! My own 3 were a mystery to me! How people can see appendages I'll never know since I find it hard to tell the head from the body. Taking toodler to a playgroup later. I decided to put more time into the sprogs and face up to the fact that that's my job right now, and I can't earn money like I'd like to.
Thanks again all:grouphug:(group hug, not 3some!!!)Gala bingo wins £70!!! mystery shopping earnings: £0

Well maybe not spam, he's been up on the elec&gas board spouting the same nonsense constantly. He obviously has some issue with scottish power.The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.Bertrand Russell0 -

Was wondering if there is anyway to get a full list of weeks jobs on a Monday? I dont really do things on a daily basis but weekly basis and would make it a lot easier to plan week.
Does this list come from flylady site or just from members here?

lil_me I remember how annoying it is for children to have different holidays. When I was teaching mine had different start and end dates and staff training days. It was a nightmare, and we were all in the same county too. I think pyramid schools usually make agrements between them but if one of your children is in a different pyramid it all goes haywire.
Happy Birthday to sinderella's daughter!!
