I totally get what you are saying Maz..apparently the bike money is imminent as they have until the end of the month otherwise it goes to court :rotfl:Ive told him that still doesn't mean they will pay up straight away. Anyway he intends to fix the bike which has been written off and sell it, which is why he was looking. Personally I think he would be better selling it off as spares and keeping the money to pay of some debts :rolleyes: but seen as we are singing off too different sheets its unlikely to happen.
Phoned up about a house that is perfect for Bea and I...£895 a month :mad::mad: no way in hell I can afford that.
however :j:j:j:j
Just got back from swimming and I am so proud of Bea. 6 Weeks ago she cried if she got water on her face in the pool, or someone splashed her. Today she was totally submerging her head and off she swam on her own...half a length. I can't believe it and how quickly she has gone from hating it, to swimming on her own.
:D My girl can swim
:D
what's that i hear....??? a distant whisper of the winds of change........
and well done to Bea the Fishie!I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....(it's part of my charm!)0 -

Have you put the numbers into entitledto sal? You would no doubt get housing benefit... not that I'm trying to give you a shove out of the door of course :rotfl:

:hello: everyone

I'm bloody shattered, my little girl is behaving like a newborn at night these days, she was always such a good sleeper but now she's awake half the night. It's a combo of teething and a cold, poor little thing.
She had her 9 month check today, she's tall, I didn't realise. She's on the 98th for her height and just over the 50th for her weight. Sooooo doesn't take after her mum who is short and fat:rotfl::A

Yeah I would only get what I do now for housing benefit as this is a 3 bed house and we would only be entitled to claim for a 2 bed.
Maybe the winds are on the change Maz....I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change And breakaway. I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change and breakaway ....

Aww she's goin to be tall and slim Toto, lucky thing.
Mine have always been on the top line of the book for height. DS was so long the health visitor was convinced he'd been measured wrong. He hadnt, he's blimmin tall. Nearly as tall as me and he's only 11:rolleyes:Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:
