evening all... well how was today?
well it was ok... i mean just ok. started of with some snow.. unexpected.. maybe i hadnt see weather forecast but unexpected.
then ironed.. yes again unexpected!
got the laptop all sorted for work! silly row over charger forgotten now!
then bank... now I will say this for the bank of the black horse... the lady they sent for the appointment was very genuine and seems helpful. i was honest with her, showed her my beloved spreadies, contracts of employment, cyprus figures, other figures loans, ccards and explained how we got to here. to give her her dues she was thorough.. got straight on to a colleague to see how she could reduce our 4 [?] scottish life products, took all the information, realised at once that she couldnt cope with this alone and setup a meeting for her and her boss to deal with ... great.. i believe if there is anything she can do then i fully believe and trust that she will deliver. however down side, i will not be able to find out anything till thursday, then it will be too late in the day to save february - february is DOOMED! and also it maybe that she cant do anything - due to our circumstances. its still an open case and there is still hope! thre is nothing she can offer in the short term though as we have to go out to underwriters etc etc as per usual
sooooo i suspect she thought i was a loony ... dont really care... believe she can help us ... fingers crossed she can.
tomorrow is WORK! xxxxx
im going to relax this evening... how about u?
mazie sent u a pm.
Fc123 - u twittering yet? can i follow?anyone want to follow our shop twitter account? or want a link to the facebook one when we put it live?
OK..How doomed is February? Can you do the critical stuff? Mortgage school (if monthly) and some loans?...oh and eat of course.
What were you asking her for?
If you are going to not pay anything...it's the cards that get last dibs. If you miss 2 or 3 monthlies you can do a DMP deal directly with them....and interest gets frozen.
Man all this Twitter, Facebook stuff.,...I am just sooo not into it but we sell a young product and need to sort it out.
Son is meant to be managing FB and MSP but is so full on with day to day (in concession) for us and his other things.....so going to get daughter on the FB after GCSE's in July...I mean, all her spare time is spent photographing herself and her mateys in my clothes and on their nights out...come on FC123....sort it out. I am just sooo not interested in FB and stuff...I will have to make myself do it.
As for Twitter...I need to bookmark it and just dam well DO it..you know? once per day..write something cool and interesting...it can't be that hard.
You inspire me Mrscmr...........:):)
Banks...we are same age and I recall knowing my business account manager in person years ago..his wife shopped with us. Now, it's all 'computer says' and 'the underwriters' I have heard that one too....you know what? I don't think they really exist. It's just a word that the bank staff use as an excuse to say no no no.
ETA; you know the banks only offer an umbrella when it's not raining? It is an old 80's saying...still true today. My sister could probably rack up 200k debt tomorrow if she chose too.....she won't cos she's loaded...and doesn't need to borrow.0 -

Fab for collecting yummy eggs on your Easter Egg hunt! for example and then thats about it.

I have already registered a Twitter in brand name a few months ago...I think I have followers too....who read what I don't write
Now, If I spent less time faffing around on here, I could do it.:D
OK,,,Tomorrow...1st thing...log in and post something. I'll shout at myself to do it.
It's just a little thing to add to the mornings login; fire up, check e-mail, pick up sales figs, do Twitter...... easy.:)
I will then pm you a link. My new website was meant to go live today....had to 'phone my brother to sort out one of the domain names. Turned out he was in Australia.
Not very MSE, a £10 'phone call.0 -
