    How exciting - wonder if I've passed you in the street. I'll send you a message, let me know when you want to meet for coffee.
    I go to a nice baby group on Fridays if you're interested and am looking for more so would be nice to have a partner in crime!

    Weezl - lovely to see you. I'm not planning to TTC as I'm already cooking another, due October!

    Congratulations DK!!! If we already knew that news, then I have forgotten so congrats again anyway. :T

    Fitz, the first night I was like oh must have been a fluke, but second and third were the same so into his own room he goes :-(
    Am very sad but I feel its me thats distrupting his sleep so its not fair on either of us.
    Hes nearly seven months so I'm sure he'll be OK!

    It isn't that new (before people pile in with congrats again!) but as I'm not here too often, I'll let you off!

    I'm off to baby massage and weaning chat soon so i anticipate the freebies :rotfl: :D I joined Hipp but not got anything. I did get a free sample of creamy porridge from C&G and some vouchers though, will sign up to the rest now.

    Housing officer has just been round, she hadn't read my email but i told her about it and she said no chance as it's a choice based lettings scheme so they have to let everyone have the chance to have it. :( She went straight round next door to see what noise equipment they have and tell them to move it if it's next to my wall (did i not ask her to do this months ago??). She said she's been in contact with their support worker too (wonder why they have one?!).

    And in case she thought the neighbours noise was fixable and therefore not requiring me to move, i told her about the ex being in court soon and abusive. She basically said well get a restraining order on him it doesn't matter if we move you he'll find you anyway.

    Oh cheers, thanks! Now i'm going to lock myself in a cupboard while i slide into more depression because i can't see a way out of this hell hole.

    Off for a shower...

    Beenie, that's absurd. Find out who her supervisor is and lodge a complaint.

    Edit: Here's the list of important people. Veruta Barlow is the manager of the section dealing with anti-social behaviour. And if you need anything please drop me a PM.

    I think this is a complaint-worthy statement to make to a vulnerable person.

    Can you report her to her superiors beenie? It might give you some leeway now they're definitely in the wrong.

    Please don,t lock yourself in a cupboard Beenie, I am sure there are enough clever people on this thread who can write up a letter of complaint for you.
    I am horrified by this womans attitude and you shouldn't have to put up with it.
    Big Hugs.x

    Yes please :D My sister isn't that reliable which is why I didn't ask her in the first place! She's not even acknowledged my text! *rollseyes*

    Thanks Fitzio - just busy and realising I'm back in work in less than a month. And still not getting much sleep *sigh*

    Currently babyproofing the lounge and ensuring we have space to move - J has started pulling himself up against me from sitting so don't think we'll be long til he's doing it on the furniture :eek:

    Hugs to anyone that needs them :)
