    Heeeeeellllllllllllllooooooooooo

    Sorry - laptop broke 'again' but now fixed and all is well in the Red World.

    Another bounced DDM - DH forgot to deposit! so thats another £25 charge from the horrendous A&L, which they have refused to refund. As soon as I dont need their O/D I am offski's!

    Will catch up with all that is going on around MSE world and come back with more mutterings later.

    PS Suffragettes definately canvassed for the vote and no ironing, I am sure of it!

    There is no point in negative thought, it takes up time and energy which could be used in a positive, happy way!

    I'm here! Decided to dump my ironing and passed a new law that Husbands had to do it - only he is really bad at it and has the ironing board round the wrong way :rotfl:

    Sorry to hear about A&L, they are not very nice are they - I'm not sure which Banks are though TBH!

    What a sh*t day - my boss told me that senior management are thinkin of moving me to a crap team that is really struggling (thus why they send cheeky me to get the place going again) to do a job I don't want to do EVER! She argued taht it would be a bad idea, our own team have worked very hard to get this team going and we have a lot to do and she doesn't want to me to be moved but they can and there is nothing I can do, except leave!
    Boss asked them to reconsider and they agreed to rethink and will come back to her tomorrow.

    I am so f-ing cross I could smoke!
