    morning everyone. Thought i would join the daily chat, but prob wont make it every day - is that ok?

    Louise, my thoughts are with you and you OH, my girls lost their nana to cancer last month - just try and stay strong for each other, as well as OH mate.

    I am off to civic centre today, to sort out housing. Am a bag of nerves - we are ringing up beforehand to make sure i can get straight in and dont have to wait too long.

    OOh, and my unreg tesco clubcard i am selling on ebay is up to £41!!!!!:j
    That will pay for the car seat i had to buy earlier in the week :T

    morning jet cat, welcome to the mad hoose!!! Yay on the tesco card!

    Yes Lenny, i'm MOTing today... feels like someone has cut my arm off as no car in the car park! I'm hoping and praying it doesn't need anything doing at all, but more realistically i can only hope it's not much!! It's a 2001, so technically it could be falling to pieces...!! It's had 4 new tyres this month, and new brake pads (big g checked discs, they are fine) so it can't be either of those things, but only about 400 other components that it could fail on!

    Hello to all the others :wave:
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.
  • Oooh that bad is it Maz?? At least the time spent at home has given me time to catch up with things that i`ve been trying to do all week but haven`t had time as i`m rushing from 1st job to 2nd job. Still it`s all helping with fighting the debt & i`m not increasing it caus i`m too knackered to go anywhere to spend & to tired to want to do anything!

    Oh well, they will just have to re-sit in December.

    I know I shouldnt be hard on myself but up to now I have always had 100% pass rate:mad: The ones that didnt get through I have to say did miss alot of classes though.
