He said last night I was a 'mug' and 'stupid' for not wanting to pursue the RNLI job. I said that perhaps his answer should have been 'well done, you deserve it and I will back you with your decision'.

I always seem to come to these discussions very late but I do have;
1. Painting to do
2. Grouting to do

I think BB's OH has a certain charm. He's like the complete opposite of positive so consistantly EVERY SINGLE TIME.

Sorry BB - I probably shouldn't comment as I know neither of you....BUT you seem really nice.

Kayleigh, I agree with the others. I was left some money from my grandad when I was a baby, and used it to buy my first car so I could get to sixth form. I had to sell my car to pay some debts, and feel bad that I don't have anything to remember him by, but because of the money I got my A levels, and I'm sure he wouldn't have wanted me to struggle with debt.

My Granda paid into an insurance thing which matured when I was 16.....I never saw the money as my Dad decided he needed it more that I did:o

Never did tell my Granda

How lovely to have the chance to get yourself debt free Kayleigh. :j

My parents did the insurance policy thing when I was little but had to cash it in to get my secondary school uniform as it was so expensive :eek:

Just picked in another 2kilos of runner beans, 600gms of blackberries, 1 large courgette, 1 tomato and 5 blueberries. :T

Yup, I guess that is one of the reasons why I am so determined to give my kids a good start.

Every single thing we have we have worked for ourselves, I have had money taken from my purse as a teenager and made to hand pay packets over from a Saturday job while someone indulged in expensive hobbies.

Not so much as a Birthday card or even Christmas card has come any of our ways for years.

My Mam has grown in strength now but for years I held onto resentment for her not being strong enought to stand up to his behaviour.

frickin hell, where did that come from:eek::o:rotfl:

I just got word that I have been accepted onto the final year of a BA (hons) course, just the small matter of having to pass my exams which the results are out on Monday and this time next year I will be graduating with an honours degree in accounting and finance.

I couldnt afford my first graduation for teaching so I shall be having a party for this one:beer:
