    fedupandskint - my goodness you sound organised - well done to you - and thanks for your lovely words - the thread is so good at keeping you on track I hope you manage to keep up. good luck for your first day back.

    I cant get Organised to print - well sorry thats not strictly right - the pages print off but ther is nothing on them but the titles!

    hugs embb - certainly worth a phone call- that is so annoying!

    wendywiitch hugs honey - not a nice situation to be in - have you been to Citizens Advise for help? And there are solicitors who will give you 30 mins free consultation before you try them so would be worth trying a few to get an idea of where you stand. and ditto what flower says. (((hugs)))
    toots xx
    Peace will be mine

    , there's evidence that hedgehog is back which is nice (their poo is different!). Didn't see anything of him last year. But he'll keep the slugs down.

    I have a hedgehog... he's a very noisy eater :rolleyes:

    I'm on my own pretty much all the time... it doesn't stay tidy though :confused:

    Ha yes, but if I was on my own, it probably wouldn't either because I would live comfortably not perfectly, but because everytime I do something they mess it up, I have been keeping it nice because it makes such a change and it makes me happy - do you know what I mean? ;)

    I haven't done anything all weekend.
    I received court papers regarding my rent arrears on Saturday so haven't felt like doing anything :(
    I'll have to make phone calls on Monday as I don't actually know what to do next :confused:
    This will be my second trip to the court so to me it don't look good :cry: my only hope is clearing the arrears before the court date :confused: - maybe that would help.
    Well I'm off to do something now . . .

    (((hugs))) wendy...maybe CAB can advise? xx

    Wendywitch there is some really helpful stuff on the shelter website. Are you HA by any chance - had a similar problem with someone at work but by ringing we established that if he got under 8 weeks arrearr they wouldn't go for eviction so he saved himself. Got to be worth a phone call.

    Not a huge amount done, dinner cooked and some seeds planted but that is about it. Caramel cheesecake was very nice but you wouldn't want more than one slice.

    Different from WHAT?
    What else poos in your garden? Can't be Beffy...

    BTW I recognise hedgehog poo as it is about slug sized and shiny which I put down to the slug slime...either THAT or something really odd comes and poos on my lawn :rotfl:

    Hedgehog poo - it's a bit darker than BB's poo and is long and thin as though they do it on the run! - though not slug size - it's thinner than that
