    Ooooh I remembered something I wanted to tell you.

    Sat in the club; me, Rach (best m8), Chris (Rach's OH) anyhow some random geezer sat next to us and being polite Chris chatted to him. Geezer turns round and says if i pay her attention (looking at me) i'm guaranteed a sh*g nobody bothers with fat birds so they are flattered when they get a look in.

    OMG, that's awful! Some people can be really horrible. What an idiot. :(

    Good luck, FE! Which course are you hoping to get on?

    Morning all, wishing you much luck and many prizes! :)

    Hi everyone , just popped into to vent ......

    I still havent heard anything about the Moto comp vouchers I won back in May :eek:.

    Then also In may I won a hotel holiday in Blackpool , so added my kids to the booking for late august. Then two months ago due to the recession we decided we shouldnt take this holiday and I emailed them and cancelled it. Then today got a email saying they are looking forward to seeing us this week :mad:. So have emailed them again telling them I cancelled. I just hope it doesnt leave me with a bill , but I never got any paperwork at all and never paid anything ,the win was notified by email and mentions no terms or anything.

    oh Im feeling stressed.
    Kindness costs nothing :)
