Hi Blondie (and all the other blonde ladies!)
I've just read your thread from the beginning with lots of emphatic nodding and sympathetic noises. Sounds like you're having a tough time, but you've got the right attitude and fingers crossed it will all work out soon. Will keep reading and sending happy thoughts and non-dodgy hugs.

Hey everyone - I'm going to break in with a bit of randomness (but I am tired and am gearing up to train people this evening) - but it was Blondie mentioning Martin again.
Do you know who I have a bit of a secret thing about (apart from my scary thing about Noel Edmonds dressed as a hippy) - Martin Johnson the ex England Rugby team captain. Mmmm. Have been spending many a happy evening while the rest of the family are sleeping, watching the 2003 World Cup Final on DVD (and I confess replaying the bits with him in - especially when he looks angry!!). Can I just say, I would be more than happy to keep him in my troll shed on a regular basis;)
OK - back to the plot - glad to hear things with Sparky went well Blondie - although I am deliberately NOT thinking about sofas now.Onward and upward - with the odd step to the side

Try thinking of the jaffa cakes as keeping your mind active whilst you're off- "Full moon. Half Moon. Total Eclipse!!"
Tonight i am going to drag myself off to the gym to try and loose this last half a stone (feel like I've been saying this forever!!).
If you are eating out for dinner you might as well have something you enjoy- you can have boring(healthy!) stuff at home anytime!0 -
Well tonight i'm cooking our tea- river cobbler- cheap fish! with Veg.:p
Then watch desperate housewives with OH- oh yes i managed to get him addicted- happy days:rotfl:
Then read Martin Lewis' money diet book- Blondie, i do see where you are coming from with him.
BUT NOT JEREMY kYLE-:eek:

Hello again, popping in to catch up. Glad everyone's doing ok.
Blondie, I know how frustrating it is. No words of encouragement from me today, I've had a crap day. Mainly, got rejected for a loan we REALLY needed. First time that's happened to us and really don't know what we're going to do.
Apart from that, very happy to hear about you and Sparky. Way to go sofaGC March Wk1 £28.72/£30 Wk2 £28.4/£29

Mellika are you ok? Is there any other options??? Tell us abit more about your situation and maybe someone on here might be able to help?? xx
I need to tell you all about last night.
Sparky came with me to poker, we had a great night and ended up driving home at midnight. Turning into our road there was a road closed sign, he got out the car and moved it as we live oh about 5 meters away and noway near the road works. Some man (young chav) comes along and shouts at us about the diversion and we say look we live HERE and Point. He and OH go mad, then OH gets in car and we drive to park.
Sparky then wants chips, so we walk up to kebab shop opposite road works and walk in and he orders chips. We are talking when the chav walks in and sharts shouting 'IVE GOT A PROBLEM WITH YOU, YOU C**T!!" then he threatens to punch OH and i start screaming. Another one of his colleagues (anther chav) comes along and calls my OH a FAT C**T (which hes not) and says he will kill him. At this point OH has not gone to hit either of them as im between them. I yell for the site manager.
Hes behind us in the kebab shop the whole time.!!
I say how you you let your staff come and threaten members of the public following us in here??!!!! his responce 'hes a contractor' and i say 'HES STILL WORKING ON YOUR SITE!!!!!'.
The chav 1 then throws a lighter at us, then (me still in the middle and his boss standing there too) lunges out of nowhere and goes to punch OH and misses him and hits me instead.
Im crying and yelling for the police.
All caught on kebab shop camera.
Im not taking it any further simply becuase this man knows our car and where we live, as he threaten to come and 'get us both'. All for the sake of moving a sign post.
I am so angry as the site manager didnt help at all. The chavs were calling me names and threatening us for nothing.CC1 - £250 (PAID) :j
