Awww Squizz, sounds like things are going well!


Not far off with the decorating now, need to go and choose a (cheap) carpet and order a wardrobe (found the perfect one in Ikea), but can't find a bed I like, so I will be sticking to my mattress on the floor for a little while yet!
El, why were you up at that time?? :eek:
Ooh an Ikea visit in order then?

Morning all. I'm trying to get things scanned in that I need to email, and print off the two PPI letters to get the ball rolling.
Had a chat with Pint last night, cos the medical left me so down I just couldn't see a way out. Things are a little better, still really hard to think about it, but he said he'd be there and help if he can.
Hugs Elfen, it's good to hear that you have a supportive bloke there

Btw peeps - when you posted on a thread it used to mean you were subscribed to it. Didn't work on here this am - wonder if it's something they changed when the forum was down last night ?

Morning all...having a slight nervous breakdown...OH hasn't been paid AGAIN!! getting to be a regular occurance now...which means if it doesn't go in today - I will have to put my kitchen on hold.....I know its not a great drama in the grand scheme of life...but it means my kitchen cupboard contents will have to remain in the living room for a bit longer....grr....

Ell, thats hy the forums were down last night becasue people were having like thousands of subscribed threads. This was slowing up the server. You now have to do it manually... Scroll to the top of the thead, in the drop down menu under 'thread tools' there is a 'sub to this thread, button. Click that on the next page click ok/next and then you would have subscribed. Just make sure you unsubscribe once you are done with the thread because they could be limiting the amount you can subscribe to...0 -
