    Hope everything has gone ok today and that she provides some hope.

    Can't get hold of mum2one..so don't know whether coffee is on tomorrow.
    Have decided to take DGS to farmer parrs tomorrow if the weather is good and if it isn't we'll go to planet chaos.

    Have been naughty today and bought a Wii and a Wii fit...cheaper than a gym membership...lol....got it from tesco so got the points it also came with 2 free games...while there signed up for the savings account and depending what is in it on 7th october depends how many points you get..you get 250 for a £1 up to 1500 for £10k...

    Done the shopping,filled the car and done the washing.

    DGS is here and the house is a tip already ..lol.

    Have given son and DDs boyfriend their cards and pressies..so pretty sorted.

    Hope everyone is having an ok day.

    Ooh, lots going on on this thread! Glad to hear you're getting your oomph back, Taxi, but Shaun, it sounds like you're going through a real nightmare, I'm worried for you.

    I got fed up of not getting better, so after talking to my GP on the phone again, my flu friend has picked up the tamiflu, and I've taken the first dose. Honest to god.... when you hear the TV news, Tamiflu sounds like a gift from heaven. But the written bumph that comes with it says, 2% of people throw up with it badly, your symptoms will be lessened a little, and your time ill will be shortened by 1 - 2 days. Thats it! Personally tho, even 1-2 days better would be great. Hi ho.

    hi
    yep pa rang me 20mins ago
    friday of the big bank holl,,,,,very impressed i am
    had a few questions for me,, answered most
    need to get some info from the solicitor re divorce,,
    and some paper work to her...
    on the down side council brought 300 houses in 08
    in 09 they have so far got 35:eek:

    shes looking into benifits for me to see if there is anything ive missed
    and mr T ,,,the councillor is going to try and apply some pressure to the council..
    but no one is over optimistic.....
    so looks like it will go down to the line ie getting evicted before anything is done

    case of wait and see:rolleyes:

    not as bad as it sounds
    for a landlord to get an eviction he has to go to court

    where upon the judge will side with the landlord and say you have to leave the house
    then because irish law protects the ""child"
    the judge will make the local council offer you a house
    either a council house or one with a landlord ,,,but "" they have to pay more of the rent so we can survive,,,,,,,,,,which is what we wanted in the first place

    just the normal ,,,you have to go round the mulberry bush, to get what you want

    usually it never goes as far as the court,,
    like every thing else with these people you have to play them at their own game

    its just not a nice experience for anyone

  • Oh KC fingers crossed you get better quickly minus the side effects. xx

    And Shaun, i didn't realise until i just caught up..Beggars belief it really does. xxx

    I am thinking Shaun, you should start your own diary. I am sure it will be inspirational for folks in Ireland to get some money saving tips and also keep us informed re the housing situation..what do you think?? huh!Huh! goon goon goon!

    Just got back from taking DGS out for his tea and a walk down the prom with him.He's now in bed all excited for tomorrow and guess he'll be asleep very shortly.
    KC...hope you get better soon.
    Shaun....your council is no different to here..they need a cort order first before they help you....it's all a bad system...they are all bad.
