    :hello: Hi Stunty

    Good to see you back. Was getting worried about you thought some little old lady had mugged you for road kill.

    You will be pleased to know that I am still looking and still have 2p.

    Thought you might have been busy with those wedding plans. x LC2

  • Okay following elsie's lead...its confession time...

    I was in Asda and was going up the 'Travellator' (dum dum dummmm :D) and i spotted about 7p road kill but it was in the middle isle (in between the one going up and the one going down) and i couldn't get in between it without getting stuck lol so i decided not to embarrass myself and not to attempt to get it :rotfl: and there were a lot of people behind me :D
    Though i redeemed myself by putting some coppers in the pot (the change from posting a package :D)
    ..xx
    I am only me, no pretences, no second guesses.. It's the best I can do, I'm sorry if that's not good enough for you... I'm sorry I'm not good enough for you :A

    Thanks Sparky and Sue for your kind words. I haven't posted a thread on the main board. I've noticed a few people being less than kind and right now anything can send me over the edge. To be honest I don't think there's much else to do, I just need a job :(

    I've noticed there isn't that much roadkill where I live. I've always walked looking at the floor, since I was a little kid. But don't seem to find much around here. Maybe I should go to the big towns on roadkill assignments :D

    Hi Mellika, good to hear from you, though not very happy with what you say about what folk (some I guess) are like to those needing help. I'll have a look tomorrow as I quite often put some help there myself. I really do wish you all the very best of luck in getting that job you so need, very soon!

    Precious little roadkill here either, in fact I've only have about 8p since Christmas! Ah well, maybe it's our turn soon! :j All the best Mellika, please try hard not to worry too much, after all it won't change the situation, but a lovely smile on your face just might!! :D

    Sue with more !!!!{hugs}}} !!!!{happy hugs too}}} x
