    With the apartment. We're going to lose about £2k and the only chance we have of getting a place :(

    Why are you going to lose £2k? What has changed?

    Because that's what we've already paid out in fees and we're going to have to give up the place.

    The solicitors are being a nightmare so I'm not likely to get any compensation money soon - hence no deposit :(
    Our backup plan was to get a loan in my mum's name and pay her back - as we know the money is coming eventually and could afford the monthly repayments - but the bank said no :cry:

    Nevertheless she persisted.
  • Right, so the compensation money was going to be the deposit and now its not coming in time and you can't get a loan?

    When was the last time you spoke to the Solicitors?

    Yeah we'll need nearly £6k by November/December and there's no way it'll be settled in time now because of the 2nd accident.

    Last week, they are waiting on a consultant to do another medical report.

  • Gemz-I don't know what to suggest hunny and all I can offer is a hug x

    Luc-RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT! I agree with Squirrley-either stay long or go v short-mid length will need a lot of tying back when working out and can be a nightmare. I think with yor shape face, you can have pretty much any style-I love a fringe and do think it would suit. (Although I think Sammy looks better without one, but she knows I think that-Sammy has a square face and needs more height at the crown and a longer, side swept fringe to soften the squareness...I digress...)

    Anyhoo, the second photo had scraggly ends I think and whilst looking all lovely and toussled in the photo would end up looking unkept me thinks. I think looooong layers, long side swept fringe and the lucious dark colour would be better-not fond of you blonde Luc as much as sultry brunette...anyhoo...back to lurking...

    Sorry bear in mind I have a temp and am considering bed in a minute.

    Is there anything you could sell? Anyone else to borrow the money from?

    any other banks to try?

    Is there a later round of apartments that you could go for ?

    Apologies if you have already done this- knowing you you probably have

    sorry hon xx

    I too have a temp and am considering bed in a minute! Not sure what to suggest Gemmzie...its a shame, a real shame.

    I only have a square face cos I is a bit fatter about the face than I used to be. I used to have a nice thin face like my lils....

    (maybe I will grow my fringe out now)

    Buffy, what is the MA in. How long do you have to go with it? What will you do with it?
