To the man at the debt admin firm...

that I just lost my cool with. It would be nice if you actually listened to what I said and went away to check it out instead of believing that everyone who calls is a liar and what it says on your computer screen is the truth.
If you are reading this: "this is a computer screen - what is on here must be true - the earth is flat - Archduke Ferdinand is still alive and so is Elvis - Robert Mugabe is a really, really nice man - and I don't owe your client anything like as much as you think" OK? (at least one of the preceding statements is really true)
A house isn't a home without a cat.
Those are my principles. If you don't like them, I have others.
I have writer's block - I can't begin to tell you about it.
You told me again you preferred handsome men but for me you would make an exception.
It's a recession when your neighbour loses his job; it's a depression when you lose yours.

    It's not the computer that's wrong...it's the pratt who inputted the information.

    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.

    Linda - what I hate is that the computer was right at some point 3 months or so ago but because that's what it says on the screen now, it must be right now.
    I wonder if the person I spoke to bought BP shares when they were floated just after the stockmarket crash because everyone said it was a good idea.

    Thanks everyone by the way.
