    The one I meant is by a guy who's name I can't pronounce, something beginning with B?

    Would it be selfish of me to go away on my birthday knowing sister might need me to help her move that week?

    He will be doing, but there's about 4 car loads of stuff to move. Mum could always help her I suppose.

    well, surely she can pay for a van and get it done in 1 go?

    Book your hols, Ames, afterall, when she's given you the £130 quid back, then you may be able to help her,

    Hellooooooooooooooooo all!!

    Nice to see you Pepster-you will be pleased to know I have initiated PPI reclaim-have had reply from Lloyds as it is 'official' complaint. Other goodnews, get £11 a week for WFTC. BUT, it means they have 'paid back the money I 'owed' them...

    Well done Bunny, about time:D.

    Does WFTC stand for What F****in' Tax Credit? They stole it from me in the first place by amending my Code! I could never see the point:confused:
    :D:D stay wonky :D:D

    ....one-way ticket to Portugal booked !

    She can't afford to pay for a van, and dad'll have to pay for one if she gets a job and moves again.. And I'll never see the £130 (or the rest of the £1800). But I can afford it, I thought I'd have to start saving for a masters from next month, but I wont be able to start it till a year later than I thought, so I've got another year before I need to start saving, so I've got a fair bit spare in next years budget.

    I just want to get away from all the crap for a few days. So I think I'll book it, I've found a few dirt cheap theatre tickets, and hotels on last minute. I think it'll do me the world of good!
