Ooooh go on tell the stories Dilli!!
Blue would be good but might look like a corpse... I had thought of gold..will have to wait and see what Dilli comes up with for the site and co-ordinate her with that i think :-)0 -
champagne - that strange car colour that is between silver and gold?
I like blue but you might get clahes or may all look a bit cold. also you might not jsut do blue stuff. if you do some of the more gothy colours or burlesque stuff then the blue might not work.

And really peed off about the council guy, I am so annoyed that he got away with that. What are you housing options YummyMummy? Is there anything else that you will be able to do? What are the chances of you getting the money back from your dad?
QUOTE]
I've got an appointment with CAB so they can try and do something about the council guy, we've had a letter to my mum's house, in my sisters name, about council tax for the flat I was going to have so how on earth can he just deny everything and it be ok?
Right now my housing options are just about nothing, the council are stupid, the housing associations list is full and atm they are only considering people already on the list or a certain percentage referred to them by the council. Literally my only remotely viable option atm is to stay with my ex temporarily but his house only has two rooms (bathroom then open plan everything else with the 'bedroom' on like a mezzanine (sp?:rotfl:) level) so sleeping arrangements with DS would be difficult and I probably wouldn't be able to get to/from work on Saturdays since it's about 25mins away and about £16 in a taxi :eek:
Theres nowhere currently available to privately rent that's affordable and doesn't hate people with kids or needing help with housing benefit, I check daily! Plus I don't have even half a deposit atm now.
My Dad is supposed to be paying me back when he gets money through from some policy in a couple of weeks BUT i have a feeling this is going to end up like the £1000 loan he guilt tripped me into getting for him that I end up making the payments for more often than not. I swear he does it on purpose so we can never move out! If him, my mum, my sister, her ex gf and my friend all suddenly decided to pay me back I'd only have about £50 of debt. I am such a mug!0
