    Okay thx - but don't stay up to do it now (unless you already have). Tomorrow will be fine, or whenever. You need sleep - and you need to go sc hunting. ;)

    I definitely need to go sc hunting, ( you can all look out your windows, now.) :D


    By the way. How much of your garden was left?

    I have two perennial sweet peas planted this summer in open ground and so far they are okay. At least they were before my travels, I haven't checked tonight. I've seen some scs in the vicinity but as I didn't leave them there I don't know whether they would have gone for the sweet peas.

    Apparently perennial sweet peas aren't as scented as annuals ones. :( I don't know, I've never grown them before. However, if they have some degree of sc resistance it will still be worth having them. :)

    Just finished gardening. It's such a still night. Lovely and cool, and all you can hear are the sheep.

    And the sc's munching.

    Back to reality today. I know i've been told not to do anything, however, the fact remains. I've been overpaying my rent and council tax, ( which probably accounts for the lack of money.) Of course, the council's reply is, well, you have arrears. Yep. But they have gone into the dro, and it's still unreasonable to expect me to overpay by what £20, £30 a week. I was under the impression it was £3.50 per week. Rent is due today, and sod it. I'm not paying it, until it's all sorted. Which means yet another unavoidable trip to the council. Also have to sort out all this mess with my bank account. I know it's the banks fault, but i now have another new debt. I mean. For heavens sake. Busy week. Appointments with dentist, scans, sw, etc, etc. Times like these, it's never far away. Wasn't i going to do. Nothing.

    September 2010. August 2012. Is it really two years? Another two years of going round and round in the same circles. Isn't that how everybody lives? But don't they have some quality of life at the same time? What is quality of life? Being able to afford to buy an ice cream? Being able to afford to buy a pint of milk? Being able to afford a kindle? Being able to afford a new computer? Being able to afford your mortgage, rent, bills, blah blah. Money makes the world go round , the world go round, the world go round.

    I watched dond today. You couldn't fail to be moved. How would you spend quarter mill? Probably very frugally. Who was saying how you get so used to not having any money, you can't spend it when you have it? We all say, i have no money. But when you get to the point where you have no money. I would put it in the bank and look at it for the rest of my life. Knowing i had security. That's what it's all about, isn't it? Money provides security. I might go and buy a second car, as i've always had a hankering after another car. Nah, maybe not. I'm happy with the car i've got. Could just do with a bit of tlc, now. Like me, huh? Stupid things, computer screens. Stupid things, diaries. Stupid things, life.

    Hi Ani

    Crikey this is a busy diary!! I`ve had pages to catch up on!...you lot can talk:D

    Thanks for the message Ani ...it all went perfectly for my DS wedding on saturday. I`m not one for getting upset at happy stuff but I had my moments:o My DD in law and GD looked stunning:D

    Strangely though it has made me want to get my divorce sorted...I think its closure I need & wish I`d done it years ago.

    So the start of a new week & I have hardly slept (reaches for can of R*d Bull)....but I shall concentrate on the positives and hopefully the negatives will wreak havoc somewhere else.

    Have a great week y`all:j:j
