    morning all , hope everyone is well.

    £5.00 for me towards halicrap CC, can't wait to get paid my expenses at the end of the month so I can pay a couple of hundred off and finally get my CC below 10K - well thats the plan anyway!

    Hope everyone has a great day.

    Mornin mornin mornin!

    Hope all are well and super-dandy? I haven't read back through the past 12 hours of posts yet (although i'm guessing there's going to be at least some mention of crops and/or tractors :rolleyes:...I am still strong in my resistance to FV personally) but will do so in a minute after posting today's PAD of £2.03 (to round my c/c down). I am expecting another payment to come out later, so i'll post that too then.

    Keep smiling, PADers!

    Hey all, I haven't posted in ages cause i am so sooooo broke, and beginning to get really depressed... im on mat pay which is statutory now but for some reason my tax credits have been stopped and thats what i was pretty much living on, they dont seem to know whats happened but i had to do a whole new claim and they have said it will take up to 3 weeks to sort out, but i only have about £15 and i dont really wanna use my credit card, but obviously if i have to i will.
    Really fed up isnt it funny money can make u happy or sad. Sorry for my rant :)
  • Bob Hill and his new wife Betty were vacationing in Europe, as it happens, near Transylvania .. They were driving in a rental car along a rather deserted highway.. It was late and raining very hard. Bob could barely see the road in front of the car. Suddenly the car skids out of control! Bob attempts to control the car, but to no avail! The car swerves and smashes into a tree.


    Moments later, Bob shakes his head to clear the fog. Dazed, he looks over at the passenger seat and sees his wife unconscious... With her head bleeding! Despite the rain and unfamiliar countryside, Bob knows he has to get her medical assistance.



    Bob carefully picks his wife up and begins trudging down the road. After a short while, he sees a light. He heads towards the light, which is coming from a large, old house. He approaches the door and knocks.



    A minute passes. A small, hunched man opens the door. Bob immediately blurts, "Hello, my name is Bob Hill, and this is my wife Betty. We've been in a terrible accident, and my wife has been seriously hurt. Can I please use your phone?"



    "I'm sorry," replied the hunchback, "but we don't have a phone. My master is a doctor; come in and I will get him!"
    Bob brings his wife in.




    An older man comes down the stairs. "I'm afraid my assistant may have misled you. I am not a medical doctor; I am a scientist.. However, it is many miles to the nearest clinic, and I have had a basic medical training. I will see what I can do. Igor, bring them down to the laboratory."


    With that, Igor picks up Betty and carries her downstairs, with Bob following closely. Igor places Betty on a table in the lab. Bob collapses from exhaustion and his own injuries, so Igor places Bob on an adjoining table.


    After a brief examination, Igor's master looks worried. "Things are serious, Igor. Prepare a transfusion." Igor and his master work feverishly, but to no avail. Bob and Betty Hill are no more.


    The Hills' deaths upset Igor's master greatly. Wearily, he climbs the steps to his conservatory, which houses his grand piano. For it is here that he has always found solace. He begins to play, and a stirring, almost haunting melody fills the house.


    Meanwhile, Igor is still in the lab tidying up. His eyes catch movement, and he notices the fingers on Betty's hand twitch, keeping time to the haunting piano music.. Stunned, he watches as Bob's arm begins to rise, marking the beat! He is further amazed as Betty and Bob both sit up straight!


    Unable to contain himself, he dashes up the stairs to the conservatory.


    He bursts in and shouts to his master:


    "Master, Master! ..... The Hills are alive with the sound of music!" :p
