HA! No! I just withdrew my loola and next bundle money to pay to the credit card! *is shocked*
Elle, well.... DH came home and I anounced my plans. He got !!!!ed off and started moaning about money coming out of his backside, or the lack of. I got tearful and called him a tight fisted skinflint who wanted nothing more than for us all to live in a stinking cesspit of make do but don't bother mending cos whats the point? And also a few 'cos you love your kids that much that you are happy for them to have furniture falling to bits. And a 'yes, Amber will move into a room with a carpet that is 8 years old and smells of pee and no it won't just wash and yes I know this because I lack the Y chromosome that makes me stupid! And I'm off to bed and I hate you and your horrible and tight and don't you dare moan about me buying dresses for Amber when you buy xbox games at £40 each and fags every week at £25-50 and a £500 BLOODY phone you bloody bloody git and I love sleeping in a room that is a skank hole.... you get the idea....
But anyway this morning he said sorry and that I'm right it does need doing and he is just being tight and it's not fair.
So, operation loft and room swap will commence in September (my student loan will all go towards it).
Course then later on I had to admit there may have been a degree of PMT in my tantrum, but I'm still right

Cleared Asda Warrington of clothes for Katie - she sneaked in a black teenager bra which I found when unloading the trolley, I do remember her measuring one up against me whilst I was hunting down PJ's!
Debates: duvet, batches or barms, fairy cake.
We had a door bouncer for Katie which she loved to spin and bounce in, we had my mums old bouncer so no entertainment on it, then when the dog chewed that one we were given one with toy bar which she loved.
Grandma bought her some maracas today so she is currently dancing round the living room in her fairy dress shimmying like crazy.Proud to be dealing with my debts

I would never ask for a rounds of sarnies, a round of toast is 2 slices but I'd just ask for a sandwich or 2 sandwichesmoney_maker wrote: »question
If you asked for a round of sarnies, would you expect 1 or 2 slices of bread ???
buttie - 1 slice folded in half with loads of butter <
SEE!!!
piece - 2 slices with filling cut in half
sandwich - like a piece but cut diagonally and therefore - posh
round of - 2 slices of whatever, usually toast here.
oh and a gravy is not a sugar do'nut no matter where you come from cos that is just plain WEIRD!
!!!!!! gravy has no place being mentioned near doughnuts!money_maker wrote: »elle, you know the doughnuts that have no jam in them and a hole in the middle ?? Well in actual fact, they are called gravy rings !!0 -
:rotfl: MM, you are definitely on your own with the whole doughnut/gravy thing!

buttie and sandwich is interchangeable both contain 2 slices of bread.
A round = 2 slices.
Gravy shouldn't be anywhere near doughnuts.Proud to be dealing with my debts
