    Awww, bless the little fella - I hope the results come back soon for you guys. Don't blame him for showing off his war wounds, I would have done!!

    Thanks for offer of help True, will give you a bell if anything crops up. Solicitors was straight foward yest so hopefully it'll be 'fairly' simple from now on - I hope.

    I'm working in this sunshine, not going to see it :( Hate it, hate it but just reminds me again why I need to work and clear this debt so I don't have to work weekends every again :mad: I could not do them but then i'd be living off of minimal money and i'd feel bad that the hours were there and I didn't take them when OH works so hard and he has no debts :o

    Need a master plan as I can't be feeling/doing this come next year :(

    Enjoy your sunshine weekend :D xx
