  • All the best MG, onwards and upwards! :j
    I've asked a friend in Leeds if she has any useful contacts or suggestions so will see if she comes up with anything

    Olive I'm sure somethiug can be sorted, don't give up.
  • Good luck MG :D

    Sorry the warehouse thing is being a pain- but it is a glitch, something will turn up.

    Morning all - lots of luck for today MG!

    Don't worry Olive, something will turn up x

    Work is better this week but still feeling quite stressed. I think it is helping me to identify the parts of my job that I like and the parts that I really don't though!

    Morning again, I'm back out of bed :) still feel like I could sleep for Wales, but nothing is going to get done if I sleep all day. Postman has been, no sterling ear wires :( so I still can't finish off earring orders, think I may have to buy elsewhere too.

    Have to go and sort my mum out too, and post some parcels, need to find my hat though before I go out as my ears are sore :(

    Feeling a failure this morning :(

    Lucky you - now put him down and, as MG said earlier, "Move on, lady!"
    Seriously - you are the last person to be feeling like a failure - just read back over this thread and the MD&M one and fully realise just what you, yes, YOU, have got started.

    Claire - sorry to hear you're stil feeling poorly - wrap up warmly if you must go out, and definitely find that hat!

    Cherisong - glad to hear your feeling better, and LOVE the Dalek story! :rotfl:

    DT (no, not David Tennant this time! :D) - I love those family words - our version is confuzzled, we also have mizzled (misled - my Mum's Aunt pronounced it this way all her life apparently!) How about phrases too - my Nan's old favourite was "running about like a blue nosed whale!" - she woudn't have been caught dead uttering the more familiar alternative! :D

    MG - I imagine you're about back from the JC now - well done to you. I need to get in contact with those people regarding possible support while setting up Self employed - not ready to go into too much detail yet as some more planning and thinking to be done, but will revert to you all shortly for input I hope! Anyhow, as others have said, this is such an amazing thing you are doing, we all applaud you for it I think! I'm certain that today, tomorrow, and the rest of your future will bear out that this is the right decision. xx

    Now the fun and games really begin:D

    Just got to run a letter over to the council tax bods to pre-empt a demand for payment in full (don't ask, crazy system) then I'm back to play with the web angel n stuff.

    Having a cup of coffee and a HM hob nob (addictive aren't they??)
