    Simply Be - no reduction so £117 paid off today. she said they don't offer reduction unless account severely in arrears! I said so you're penalising fully paid up customers, charming!

    I hate men that run away.... it is a big shock at first. but you do get used to it.

    To be fair to my ex-OH, he was very clear about never wanting children and this is, sadly, what led us to breaking up a couple of weeks ago. We still very much love each other and want to be together - just wanted different futures ... little did I know that a couple of weeks later ...

    I haven't mentioned to him that I'm even worried yet. No point til I get the result. If it is positive then we're going to have to have a chat about it and he can be as involved, or not, as he wants.

    Maz - congratulations on getting rid of another debt! :T :T :T :j :j :j :beer: :beer: :beer: bet it feels fantastic!

  • I never lost hair whilst pregnant, but it was growing like a weed-after DS I lost it by the handful and it scared the bejesus out of me!

    Sammy, I'd love it if you came. All my friends are more than welcome to come to Canada with me and I will help EVERYONE get visas! lol

    Marky-oops, sorry, got the wrong end of the stick there-sorry it's taken Exeperian so long to sort it-go thump 'em with big heavy thumping thing...

    And on a serperate note-one of the guys at work has been suffering from 'Man Flu' and I think he's passed it on to me! I have sore throat starting, itchy eyes etc GRRRRRRRRRRR! MEN! BAH!

    Not to get your hopes up,but its not unheard of for them to change their minds once the theory becomes a reality...

    My hopes have been up since we split up! I would take him back in a second if he wanted me. He's an absolutely wonderful person - just one who's never wanted kids. I guess we'll see what happens after lunch.

    How slowly is today going?!?!?! :confused: :rotfl:

    I'm having a rest from debt busting now! i'm in danger of giving myself a nosebleed! last time i spent money like this, it was probably on credit cards!!
    I'm actually pumping with adrenaline, but in a positive way......

    If the hour between me counting days in my diary to getting the result are anything to go by your morning is going to last an eternity!!:rolleyes:

    I suggest you distract yourself for that vital 5 minutes by going and making a cup of tea or something. I made myself change out of work clothes and make a cuppa before I let myself go and check the result...
