    Chicky - you can't affort NOT to kick him out. There is always a way when there is a will. Please speak to people who can help. Go to relate, go to alanon, go to CBA. Even if you don't think you don't deseve better (and you so do), your boys deserve better. Any help I can give just shout. My ex drank but I wouldn't call him alcoholic but what he was (and is) is verbal abuser. There is abuse in many forms and we don't have to put up with it. I got out despite being in financial poo after that. It was tough and you know what I would do it again if I had to, only this time I would go and get housing benefit BEFORE maxing out my credit card and then faulting it.


    Chicky you know where we are - wish we could help you more.

    Hmmmm, seems to load ok for me. Did you get it to work? If not just google across town stitching and that might work better.

    I find I can't see across-town thread pages using Firefox....Internet Explorer works fine...one of the few sites I view using IE.

    Still no joy at with this site but I am using Firefox and my technical advisor' keeper righter' otherwise known as DS had a quick look at the site and said it could have something to do with the 'slashes' being the wrong way round and he has found that IE gets less upset by this whereas Firefox likes everything to be just so. So this ties in with your comment Keiss. Just got lappy back after he has given it a bit of an overhaul so will have to check out IE later. So thank you girls for your help.:D

    It's the thread box for me Flat Eric - but it would be wise to check out to see if it will store the bobbins. Love snoopy btw :D

    Hugs to you and the boys Chicky :grouphug:

    Hi all'

    Mag_cats- DO THE BACKSTITCHING AS YOU GO ALONG!! Sorry for the shouting but it is driving me insane:mad:. I finished the main stitching of Tenby Harbour about a week ago, gave up on the backstitching yesterday and started something new. A week of stitching and only done about a quarter of it!!.
    Will post piccies when i've downloaded them.
    Have started a John Clayton one- Autumn Reflections, much better than all that backstitch.

    Jude x

    Noted! I thought it would be like that.

    How strange - I've just finished Autumn Reflections...are we related?!

    Chicky - what everyone else has said.
  • erg. so should not stay up all night stitching until there is no more thread that you an use (in other words, lots of thread in lots of colourss, buut finished all the bits in the olours of the thread i have) and have to go on a treak to find oh someone to ut his hair properly today.... (Im not that vexed about the haircut, I like that he has it cut james dean esq but finding a barber and not someone who is just clipper happy. :( )
