    Well after several weeks of being messed around I have now been told I have been awarded a 6 month secondment. Its a 10% pay rise so I should be over the moon but the truth is Im tired still underpaid compared to almost all of the others and the work expected from me is no lower. I have been working hard to keep up so been very anti social although I do try to keep up on here my brain just doesnt want to play along so Im sorry I ve not been posting and supporting you guys. I know my moans are nothing compared to others especially Taxi who is dealing with so much and ISOM who is on hold for what seems like forever but I just wanted a vent.

    Some good news is that OH are getting on although he is feeling lonely and as above Ive not been much use recentely. Kids are fine noisy and demanding as ever but happy :).

    Money not great but temp relief with the secondment. Been working on the garden so that with the shed has eaten some cash that wasnt essential. Have renewed Tax credits today and did 6 months tax on OH car but still have EON £109 bill, MOT and Service for OH car..... :(. Oh and dont forget DBrothers wedding and the need for a dress for a black tie work do (they just dont get that Im broke :mad:) at leat one dress can do two events.

    Some interesting tit bits of whats has happended: Had the poice called on us for being racist. Apparently we have been targeting our neighbour by deliberately throwing balls in his garden :confused:. It happened once and twice from the other neighbour so this is targetting apparently ?????. OH has put a BIG england flag up and I mean big. It comes out of the top windows all the way to the ground. Looks good though.

    Anyways thats enough chatter - shows what taking the afternoon off can do!!
