That's just throwing money away, and pandering to your doubts and fears... Why don't you try it again, but arrange it so that you risk as little of your money as possible? Unfortunately, you need to keep doing it so that you may become used to it.

It rhymes with either height or pritt - depending on which area of the country you come from. Got some kind of virus, so I'm off work, and my knees and hips are in pain.
I think it's sympathetic SPD with all the pregnant ladies at the moment...:eek:

Yeeewwww - hope you don't get cracked n*ppl*s and stretch marks as well.......A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

hi everyone, finally caught up with my sleep and able to coherantly think properly....i'm starting to think doing all this overtime aint good...well i know it aint good for the body but i'm starting to think finances also......if i do overtime i'm too tired to cook and do housework etc...(my house looks like kim and aggie would just love the challenge) we ate out of the takeaway for a good few days (no energy to cook) so we spent more money than usual...then when i get the money through i will put most to the bills but will no doubt buy myself something for doing it (only about £10 or £20 or something) but that will cost me money aswell making the full object of doing overtime for more money virtually a waste.....it has taken me till today to kindve recover and i'm thinking is it wirth it ?..i also lost out on that bet (damb) and the bingo....maybe i'm just moaning and feeling sorry for myself0
