    Can I start Monday over?

    Went to my 2 big appointments this morning and they both said no. Well, not so much No as Not Right Now-both love their ads, both definitely WANT to do it but the one is too busy right now and one wants to wait until Sept-ARGH!

    Then, I went to my next appointment and managed to drive my car into a flipping pole on the car park and dent my fender. !!!!!!. I had to sit and de-stress for a few minutes as was shaking. What a doorknob.

    Anyhoo, any word from Claire? Has her post turned up????

    How come the advert for the local taxi firm said "London City airport for £49",but when I ask them to quote it's £209??
    Debt-free...and staying that way...

    Morning all. I think a few of us need to have a fresh start this week.

    Kayleigh, I hope the visit to the police station goes well.

    It seems to have gone alright. A very nice lady on the front desk took my details and said they'd call me back if anything needs verifying. So I might be ok.

    I'm just waiting for a call back from a manager at my insurance company to complain about the mis-sold insurance so we'll see what they say. I've decided to go onto Domino's own business insurance but my boss isn't in work today so I've had to have the night off. Another thing to add to the list of things I'll be invoicing my insurance company for, my loss of wages.

    What's happened? Are you ok?

    I'm fine, thanks for asking. :) Basically, last night, some taxi driver got right up my back end and it looked like I'd pulled out in front of him when I didn't. A policeman saw it and checked my records on the computer which showed my business insurance is the wrong type. So I might get into bother for, apparently, driving without insurance. Since the insurance company mis-sold me it, I'm playing holy with them as soon as I get a call back.

    Is it a bad or a good idea if I ask my LL if it's OK to me to get Virgin?

    Oh right, hope you get it sorted sweetheart. x

    Can't hurt to ask Elfen I think?

    I'll send him a text in a bit, I've been thinking about it, and I'd probably use it more if I could watch decent things on TV
