I wasn't aware that being ridiculous was gender specific .
I do suspect it's more of an age thing than a gender thing. Or maybe not age but maturity. Although maturity and age usually go together it doesn't always follow. I have been a bit of a gadget person down the years but I just grew out of it I guess. Probably felt deprived of toys when I was a kid or something.
I own up to being ridiculous sometimes. It makes life worth living . I would want a better reason than that to walk out on family though.

True, but it is gender specific on this occassion :p I did make sure to apologise to any blokes on here though! I guess it does keep life interesting, if frustrating.

I do still have 2 other cats, one of them being his brother who is missing him
I've gone from having 5 cats to only 2 within 8 months as i lost 2 within a couple of months of each other last year, one from old age and the other from kidney disease. The place is starting to feel rather empty without them

I'm glad you still have two, hope you're getting some comfort from them. Sorry his brother is missing him. That's rough losing three cats so quickly Wesker. Do you think you will get more?

Don't worry about it. I've been called worse than ridiculous at times - and occasionally deserved it .
What I would like to know is what has happened to the incredible shrinking PADs lately? I guess everyone else is as skint as me? I've been earning quite well lately but there are some extra outgoings so it's been tricky. I've been keeping PADs at a minimum in an effort to avoid using credit of any kind. I may have to though. Unfortunately my half yearly service charge bill for my flat, a largish outlay to move my business stuff, and some money to do a bit of redecorating for part of my neighbour's flat (to which I caused a bit of water damage), have all come at once. Unfortunately I need a new water tank for work to store purified water because my current one won't get through the doorway. I already knew about this. On top of the service charges there is about £600 - £700 of one off outlay as well as finding a month in advance for the work unit rent. So although I'm covering it pretty well, I may just have to dip in to some credit to cover the remainder. It's not the disaster that it sounds because I can sell my current tank second hand and maybe get £50 on that plus I'm owed a lot of money by customers - much of which is pending (hopefully). I may just be able to squeeze through without any borrowings but I rate it as unlikely.
I hate this feeling of always being on the brink - of what I'm not sure.
My mantra has become
"Today is the tomorrow that I worried about yesterday".

I haven't had any extra outgoings, except I've been out at least twice more than planned in my monthly budget (and I forgot to budget for a wedding, oops) and I wanted to get that first cc paid off so I skinted myself earlier in the month doing so. I haven't even found any coins on the floor to put in my pot!

Hi all

Big hugs to you wesker so sorry to hear about your cat but at least you know he's not in pain anymore xxx

Angelic - I think your OH needs a reality check!! (and a swift kick up the aris!!!:p) I'd point out to him how much it'd cost him to move out and then have to pay rent and all other bills plus child payments to you, he'd soon realise he had more money when he was still with you!!! silly man! hugs to you, I hope you can work it out xx

I'm not planning on getting anymore at the moment. The 2 i have are 11 and 13 and dont think it would be fair on them. Then again if a stray walked in the door and they accepted it i wouldnt turn it away
