If they have overpaid (after paying me nothing this month) they can whistle for it.....it was their mistake. Have got my P45 but no payslip for this month yet so that will tell me what to do next.

Are you in a union? If so, I'd be tempted to get onto them v quick. If not, can you phone up payroll or admin whoever sends out the payslips to find out whats going on?

They are never ever critical and the problem is in my head but the place has to be perfect - the joys of being second wife I guess.

I found that a really interesting thing hex. Why beat yourself up? You have given them 2 lovely grandsons. One of my best friends is wife no 3. I cant believe the things people say to her. She always says very sweetly and politely 'I've got him for keeps' with a big smile on her face. I'd punch them and tell them to f e c k off and mind their own business :mad:

My bras arrived from bravissimo. All three fit perfectly but at £40 a throw how can I justfiy keeping them all. That's the problem when you're larger than the norm....grrrrrrr. I've not bought any for two years and they're now grey rather than white. One of the swimming cossies fits well too. So I can send one cossie back for a £30 refund but.....what else do I keep? BTW I got a £26 cashback from quidco so I guess that nearly paid for one of them.

Now look here Mudbath !!!!! Us big boobed girls gotta stick together!!! I cannot believe you haven't bought any for 2 yrs.... three bras £120 x 2 yrs I make that 0.49p per day. that's not even half a pence per wear!!!!!!!

Given that they recommend you should only wear one for three months before you bin it. Look how much money you've saved by wearing them for longer than the recommended time. :A :A :A

Plus you need them! just cos they cost more than smaller bras, doesn't make them a luxury unnecessary item. Keep them all, and next time don't leave it as long before replacing!

Evening all,

SaraSH – hugs to the wee one with shingles..
RMC – hugs – hope you find some money for the bills
SSL – sorry about the job.. but there’s a better one out there for you I’m sure.
MOJT – good news about the passport.
HollyH – glad you son’s head wasn’t too broken – the mousetrap – well – that’ll be a tale to tell when he’s older!
How’s the finger now Mudbath?
JulieJ – have a lovely holiday

Reasonable day in the office today and for once, not too hot which was nice. Well, I have to fly big time tonight. Some of you will recall that my ex1 got in touch a couple of weeks ago after 25 years. Well, we've done the email bit and the phone bit and he's actually down in the area (about 30 miles away) for a long weekend (arrived this afternoon about 4pm)

We've talked about meeting up. I thought long and hard about it and decided, yes, I'd be happy to do that. It was then a question of where. Now, given he's staying in his caravan in the middle of a seriously busy tourist area, I balked at the idea of driving anywhere in the middle of the grockle season. So, he's going to come to mine Saturday morning (let him do the driving!) then we're going to walk the dog for a bit, then drop the dog off home then walk down to the beach and then into town (I shall give him my local history commentary as we go) and probably catch a bus back.

After that, I'm not sure. It depends how we get on. But, I have cleared Sunday's diary just in case.......

So, I need to do stacks of stuff this evening and tomorrow night.

Wish me luck ladies - I think I'll probably need it....

Oh soappie I've gone all of a dither, I'll be excited for you.

Kids had improved after tea but DS2/3 started again - bath time!
