    Buffy, that sounds crappy about your Mum and sister. :(

    Are you off work tomorrow too?

    I am thinking, If I had had he guts a year ago it would have been ok, they barely spent anytime together and quite frankly she hated spending time with him. Now however its different, she worries too much and I over heard her saying to him aren't you coming in the snow, but you'll be lonely on your own and I'll miss you. Its those comments that make me think :(
    it would be an upheaval, yes :( However, she is very young and I know that you could make the situation as smooth as it ever can be in these situations.

    yes this is the new car! It needed a service but also the engine management light came on. Luckily it has 12 months warranty so if its anything major it should be covered.

    Think I might call them, I mean they have had it since 9am this morning!

    I will keep everything crossed, what an awful thing to happen as soon as you buy it :( I guess they've had it hooked up to a machine. Does the warranty specify what is and what is not included?

    buffy, I completely empathise with you over your situation. I felt the same until i sat my mum down and explained how her actions made me feel. She was mortified and never realised what she was doing. have you tried having a chat with either of them and telling them how you feel? Don't leave it too long, situations can escalate to a point of no return if nothing is said.... :(

    Bored and sore!

    Sally....engine management lights can come on for very minor reasons and if you have a Warranty it will be covered cos its inside the engine.

    BB/Eskimo Nell....take care on the ice, get the OH to clear the path ( yes, Iknow it would be quicker to wait until it thaws!)

    Tigz......congratulations!

    Buffy.....Sis does sound a bit two-faced, but they both need to know how you feel.
    :D:D stay wonky :D:D

    I love that style Becky, it really suits my shape too as I am a bit straight up and down and the high waist really pinches me in...........Oh you meant for you:D

    I had to laugh at the "complete the look" section with the following garment, think you might get into trouble if you wore the skirt with the first suggestions:rotfl:

    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
