    kdean nightmare, hope you manage to sort something out
    Froddy definately not people I like hearing sing but from the photos it does look like an amazing visual show, hope you enjoy it

    DS1 off school as he's got an eye clinic appointment, they want him to see the optician at the hospital before deciding for definate on surgery, not looking forward to 11.55am especially if they want to use drops. DS2 booked to go to camp again weekend after next so need to figure where all his stuff is, I think his walking boots are in the caravan. I've had a bit of a 'disucssion' with cub leader last night as I'd told a parent going with them what care DS2 needs before the last trip. He said I should have gone to him which I did and everything I said he said 'he'll be fine' and obviously took little notice, then when they were away they realised just how much additional attention he needs, parent of course had to go through it all with him as he'd not took enough notice. In 1.5 hours on a night not all his issues are evident. Sorted now hopefully, they have more explicit instructions on how to effectively operate DS2.

    It was forecast to pour down today but so far no sign of it so have put a whites load in (DPs work shirts etc) which I am hoping to get on the line. I will do some more in the garden this afternoon if it stays nice. Will be at least another 3 loads of laundry needs doing, more if I am going to get the boys linen clean too.

    Can I have 2 stars please :D only finished 2 days worth so far, maybe earn more over the weekend
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    Morning all.

    No flying done here yet, it is payday today so I thought I would check my bank (hubby's wages go in there) and he has been underpaid by at least £200!! I really don't know how we are going to cope this month now, it is my DS birthday on Monday too. I feel physically sick. I phoned him and told him and his line manager isn't in today and he won't speak to the boss because they don't get on, so nothing is going to get sorted today. He thinks it is because he has arranged to start less hours next month (instead of 10 1/2 he will be doing 8 hours a day!) but they can't do that can they, he has worked those hours this month, he has been killing himself doing all the hours they want and now this, I really am lost as to what to do now.

    (((hugs))) kdean - can DH phone payroll or HR?
