Morning all :wave:
It's sunny here, but how long will it last for?
Bookie - I'm exhaused after reading through your list of things to do over the weekend.
Sammy - you're right me thinks. Stardrops is great, especially for getting pesto stains out of carpets.
Any supermarket should sell it - I got mine from Sainsburys for 89p, though I've noticed that my local Iceland is selling it in a spray bottle mixed with bleach or other things for £1!!

Thanks - is it kept with cleaning stuff?
M&S have passed my cc to a dca and an agent will be visiting. Should I be worried? Should I reply?0 -
Ok I'm off. Catch you all later hopefully. Any advice on last post appreciated.
Have good days. x0 -
I wouldn't worry bookie.....just make sure when they come...you have not lit a fire for a few days....make sure its cold..offer them black tea or coffee (can't afford milk!) and mouldy biscuits.......
Seriously I wouldn't be worried, although I have never had a DCA visit I am pretty sure they will be polite and professional.Quality is doing something right when no one is looking - Henry Ford

Morning!
I'm off into town in a few minutes, I reserved some stuff at a charity shop yesterday cos their card machine was broken and I didn't have cash on me, and I'm going to weigh myself. Should be tomorrow but I can't be arsed going in again just for that.
Then I need to clean the kitchen, do some washing, and some OU work.
Bookie, DCA agents have no rights whatsoever. Chances are it's just a threat and no-one will turn up, but if they do you don't even have to let them in or answer the door. I remember reading on here about someone who didn't answer and left them on the doorstep in the pouring rain. If you're worried about it though, the no phonecalls letter also covers personal visits, as it's another form of communication so if you ask for it all in writing they're not supposed to send anyone out.Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0 -
Pint's gone off to Twickenham to watch the rugby, and he said he'd try bringing me back something.....but I'm not going to expect it, so if he does, it'll be a nice present.
