    Oops... busted again :D okay! I'm going to scoot off and get my breakfast, then do the deed while eating at the computer (cos I never throw my breakfast all over the laptop, do I?:o:rotfl::eek:)

    Thats really good news on the panel - and its *not* voluntary work, you were *asked* to apply for a paid job - a consultancy, actually! You're not an employee. You're a consultant! Think of it that way. For years I used to say, oh, I rent rooms in a therapy centre in London, and do sessions and groups up there. Now, I say, I have a practice in London. See the difference? Its exactly the same thing, but it sounds *completely* different. All about identity.

    God, I can rabbit for England when I get going. You shouldn't encourage me!

    Off now :o:o:o

    I like your way of thinking Karma. If you don't mind me asking, do you do CBT?

    :hello: Happy sunny morning, DT x
    One step at a time ;)

    Hi Hopeful - no, I don't do CBT - I do a deep-level emotional type of work. If you want to know more, I'll pm you - I keep the exact details off here on purpose. Sorry to sound mysterious.... :)

    Those PAD people have got me hooked on bash the haggis and farmville so with that and free bingo I no longer have a life

    Hi Karma :D I'd love to hear more about your work. I've only done level 1 in counselling but it's something i'd like to pursue at a later date.

    DT - i've just copied the info from the intro to matched betting - oh geez! Looking at it late at night is not a good plan. I'm considering involving OH 'cause at least i would be in control of it. Everything would be in my name and passwords unknown to him. I also have all control on bank accs. now, ready for when he's back to work. Mmm so much to think about :rolleyes:

    Be careful Hopeful it may be a step too far for him and cause him more probems.

    Totally agree with DT - slippery slope and all that :D
  • OS has decided not to get another car until next summer so that will help but he has put the cheque from the insurance money in a separate a/c and says he wont touch it and is going to add refund from car tax and hopefully injury compensation money to that so hopefully he should have a decent amount for another car:D

    Banking done PAD is £20 free bingo money :D scratchies 20p real and 25p bonus and I am sure I didnt get the 50p they promised for logging in :mad:

    Log in details have arrived for nationwide so must deal with that today and open betfair account and decide which bookies to start with and place first bet:eek: so must go and do final research on gambling forum:rolleyes:

    Respite foster child coming for the weekend this pm so full house for the last time this weekend as OS goes on Thursday - I am going to miss him so much

    This was the post I nearly posted on Shaun's diary by mistake :eek:

    Addicted to farmville now those PAD folks have a lot to answer for and I got the highest score (927) on bash the haggis yesterday but they reset the leader board every day:rolleyes: - dont ask you dont want to go there more time wasting :D
