    Ouch Beanie...can you speak to the provider and ask them to spread the amount, I know you still have to find it, but they might give you longer to pay. Does DS get hi s EMA again soon, I can see where that will be going.

    sammy you have low blood sugar hun...plain digestive or rich tea biscuits!

    In regards to boss and work, yes I think things have been tight at times but she's never not paid us on time and I will give her the benefit as she is noramally so good. As for underpaying me I can understand that as I haven't written down my hours and the extra holiday cover Ive done so she's probably just used standard hours.

    Beanie hun, definitely get onto his provider and put a limit on what he can run up, if his contract is £20 for example put limit at £30 or whatever is reasonable...once he's used it up then its up to him to pay it!

    Pooky, you know the other day, you said bones should be cracked and roasted before making stock from them? How do you crack them? We used a hammer and chisel yesterday, and DD loved it, but I'm now 2 plates less than I was.

    Spud do you want some plates?
    ...and while I'm on the subject does anyone want the loan of a big TV for a year or two?

    No hun, she's still hormonal and 'fat'.

    In fact, I caught her in the evening primrose capsules this morning so she must be bad :cool:

    I ordered a few bits from Tesco with the Clubcard vouchers, but they havent arrived as yet :(
