    Oh look there is actually an update apart from the jovial stuff :rotfl:

    Well done on the 0% card, that will help to take some pressure off. Sorry to hear your HR is as useless as ours :rolleyes: Hope they sort it out soon for you.

    hey mrs s! glad to hear your still doing well! not been on here in a while, been pulling myself in all different directions and summit had to give, don't worry i've been (mostly) sticking by my dfw ways.

    you said the cup (from your mil) was engraved with little sparklo's name...i'm presuming it isn't actually sparklo so am i allowed to ask what you've decided on?

    You must work for the same company as I do- getting a straight answer out of HR is impossible!

    Actually I just applied for a promotion at work and the job advert was so vague that it took 3 emails to actually confirm that it was the right job- different job title for a start. Now they've had to put the whole thing on hold while they readvertise because it turns out their vague advert wasn't good enough- this is typical of our HR :rolleyes: At this rate I'll be attending the interview with a pram beside me :o

    i'm doing ok, just about to update my diary me thinks, i need to reasses where i am somewhat...

    unfortunalty after date number 2 i realised there wasn't any chemistry with the fireman, he was a lovely guy, and on paper, perfect for me, but there was no spark. i met someone nice at halloween but unfortunatly he is working away for a couple of months, so :confused: but i'm happy being myself right now.

    Thomas Laurence Sparkle? i like it! has a nice ring to it!
  • Oh shame... Mr Right is still out there for you though. I'm going to keep an eye out for you updating your diary just to make sure you do it :D

    Tom Sparkle is quite a cool name isn't it :rotfl: For a pop star maybe!

    diary done. cheers for the encouragement tho.

    i'm sure mr right is out there somewhere, but he should be here, now with his giant chequebook paying off my cc and shoes and a holiday... :rotfl: like that'll ever happen!

    oooooh so your 'bump' is gonna be a future pop star? nice! when he makes his first record he can clear your debt for you! :D

    He'll always be Sparklo to me :rotfl: Thomas Laurence is a lovely name. We'd decided on DD's name before she was born (and boy had we trawled through a few!) and it suits her perfectly :o We won't be having any more, but if a surprise little Spikelet (rather than Spikelette) comes along he will be Maxim, but I think more children would be about the worst thing we could do just now, though I'd love more. Hey ho.
    If you can't be a good example, be a dire warning :D

    MBNA charges and interest frozen
    Egg/DLC repayment agreement reached

    Feels like progress!

    Little Sparklo was a bit of a surprise, I can tell you!

    I've always had loads of girls' names but I knew right from the start that this was a boy and it was confirmed at the scan. Thomas was the only name we actually agreed on and Laurence is hubby's grandad's name who died last year.
