    They might take a couple of days Legend - especially if they have to add the points manually. If they don't go on in a few days, send them an email - they've always got back to me really quickly.

    Oh stepmum what a terrible thing for your cousin and family. Violence these days is so tragically random, I have a police officer friend who struggles daily with the things she comes across in the line of her work. My thoughts and prayers are with your cousin and family, so pleased that he has pulled through a horrific ordeal.

    Sorry to post non money making related but I know from reading last year that you ladies are lovely and just feeling a bit in shock at the moment and need to clear my head.
    My cousin had his throat slashed last night and although he is going to be ok the whole family are very shaken and angry. He, his wife and kids (late teens/early 20's) we're on their way home from their nye night out when they passed a house with a domestic going on outside. A husband was beating the wife and my cousin who we call the gentle giant stepped in to stop things. The husband ran into the house and then out again with a knife and cut my cousins throat. He lost a lot of blood and the docs have said he is lucky to be alive, he had to have an op today because the cut is so jagged but he is now awake and moaning about not getting his new years day roast dinner. lol .It is so scary to think that something like this happens so suddenly, we could have lost him all through doing the right thing. It is no wonder that so many people just walk by things nowadays, I have tbh I would think twice about helping someone now, I hope I still would but I'll always be more wary.
    I just feel really weird now, all very surreal.
    Thanks for the chance to air it.

    Oh Stepmum, I'm so sorry to hear that. I can't believe how some people can be so violent, I'm so glad your cousin is going to be okay. It must have been incredibly scary for his wife and children too. I hope they lock up that violent idiot (thinking a stronger word in my head!) for a VERY long time.
