    !!!!!! :mad:

    Work wont consider parental leave because they are too busy (although did say they would try and accomodate shift swaps etc).

    But I've now fallen out with my Dad, because he rang up all business-like trying to sort out how I could go to work tomorrow night - and I know he was trying to be nice, but it just came across so callous that he couldn't see that work wasn't my main priority, and I MIGHT ACTUALLY BE UPSET THAT MY MARRIAGE HAS !!!!ING FAILED.

    So I hung up, and he has now left me an arsey anwerphone message.

    AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
    Your Dad obviously wants what is best for you and maybe he doesnt quite know how to say it,and this is his way of trying to help...by sorting the problem.
    You know its not because he doesnt care:A

    Phone him back honey....:cool:

    I'm back clutching library books and a bag of yellow stickered bits from Asda.

    I managed to get a better deal that £1.20 for some fizz to tart up tonight - Asda are selling 75cl bottles of perry for £1.08 so I bought some of that, I've stuck it in the fridge and i'll add cheapo espanol cherry brandy to that instead :beer: - I couldn't see the £1.20 non-alcoholic stuff, but £1.08 is even better!
