    Thanks Bookie

    Nothing too serious I hope?

    She's gone to bed in a huff which means Dad is in for some flack.

    She was funny with me from the mo I walked in the door and then it all came out.
    Apparently my 'party' was too loud on Sunday so it was no wonder the baby got upset. It was total bedlam apparently.
    (we are talking about 11 people chatting. No music etc.).
    She is partly deaf and wears an aid which I know makes it hard for her which is why I don't put music on.

    Oooh. thunder.
    Don't talk to me about bloody thunder. I just got drenched because I had to walk to the bank/shop. Thankfully the girls stayed dry though.

    God I need a car...

  • I don't believe these people. Another phone call. I now have to attend a 'back to work' session via Jobseekers next week. Lady had no idea what it is but I HAVE to go, it's mandatory. If I don't go I will lose a week of the money they haven't yet given me. :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    Yay the bank let me up my OD so I can go away with OH before uni starts, we both need it I think, big time.

    Trying ot make a very long to do list for tomorrow as OH's parents come back (we live in the same house, but they're away for half the year so we have it to ourselves) and it includes weird deep clean things and needing to get toilet cleaning products

    Bookie, if it's this one - http://www.jobcentreplus.gov.uk/JCP/Customers/outofworkhelplookingforwork/Getting_job_ready/Programmes_to_get_you_ready/New_Deal/New_Deal_50_plus/index.html

    it looks like you have to be on benefits for at least 6 mths - it might be worthwhile calling the national number and checking.

    It might be. I told I'd only been off for a month and was used to working but she insisted that I HAD to go. I said ok love I'll bring a book to read! :rotfl:

    Luc, I'm sure you did great, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

    Bookie, the benefits system is a law unto itself.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
