AandW's mum - could I ask a banking question please? Is it OK for a company to increase your direct debit without your permission? They sent us a letter telling us of the increase, and we ontacted them and said no, but they still increased it anyway??

Thank you

If you're on a fixed direct debit contract (e.g. magazine subscription), then no. If you're on a variable direct debit (e.g. telephone, gas, electricty, metered water, variable rate mortgage), then yes, as that's the contract you signed up to.

Tooth fairy tonight then?? :rotfl: :rotfl:

How much is a tooth worth these days??

Two chocolate coins according to my 5yo (one each for him and his little brother apparently :rotfl: ). Good job I bought 8 bags reduced to 25p each in Aldi.

Yeah - come and visit!

It isn't that far for me, (Leics end of the A50) just not had time to go yet. I want some fabric to re-cover the late victorian chaise longue I got from e-bay last year. Need to decide on bedroom colours first though.

Just waiting for 7 for boys bedtime then I need to hoover, feed the animals and sort stuff for the morning.

Hugs for Denise, Nickis DD, Trikers DD, GnBs DD and anyone else who needs them.

WOW 23 stars given for today - thats a lot of cleaning!!!!
well done everyone - and i noticed there are a few people who are very close to finishing as well so thats good too!

hex - I know now that you and greenbee and the others were not moaning - dont worry about it - it is only me taking things too seriously!!! Its me who should be apologising!!! I get wound up when I do things as I try to do them perfectly - thats my problem - I am a perfectionist and its not healthy!!!!
BTW hows the knee and ankle today?
dusty glad the trip to the dentist went ok! hope Ds hasnt any pain later when it wears off! Hows the toes?
soappie good to hear the rain is getting rid of the snow - hope it stays away.
greenbee you are putting us all to shame with all this exercise!
kazwookie hope the toe/foot is more comfortable now.
sexy you are another thats too fit!!! well done with the crosstrainer - thats impressive! I hope the brakes are just a faulty light/sensor - anyway they would be under his guarantee as they were done so recently!
nicki hugs for LO that sounds really painful but at least she has 2 weeks to recover properly - try not to catch it!
kamperkat - scary list! I am sure you will pass the inspection just fine.
denisenz hope you get the toothache sorted today and enjoy BC - he is great!
I have had avery non-productive afternoon by accident!

I was just about to go to the post office whent he door bell went and there was a very elderly lady there - she had come to the wrong door but couldnt remember the name of the people she was looking for so I couldnt help her with the right address. then she explained that she lived in the next street and had locked herself out and had come looking for these people she knew to get help. She was in a right state so I took her in and phoned the locksmith for her. he said he would be about an hour which was ok - I made her a cup of tea and she began to relax. we chatted for an hour and then she was a getting agitated about keeping me back - anyway it turned out that her daughter teaches at a school about 10 miles away and she had an extra key but she didnt want to tell her as the daughter has been on about her going into a home!!! The locksmith phoned back at 4.20 to say he had broken down and was waiting for the RAC:eek: Well she had to give in and we phoned the school only to find that her daughter was in a training meeting and wouldnt be here until 5.30! She did arrive abot 5.40 so that was 3 hours chatting to this lady - I am worn out and have got nothing done on my list!!!
The lady phoned from her own home to say thanks and said that her daughter wasnt too cross so that was good.
