No it is - I recognise the really fine spray. I feel awful, I really do but because I dislike them so much, and the way they handle everything, I am feeling very defensive.
I must stop thinking that it is "my fault" when really it is just an accident. If it wasn't for the fact that they have got it in for me because I have complained about the noise I think the normal reaction would be to leave it. You can hardly notice the spots.

I realise now that we are a nation of chocaholics! We have had such a mega busy day at work - I am exhausted and after the shenanigans of yesterday, I feel fit to drop. We have processed over 1000 orders at work today and there are still 3 more days of ordering ahead of us. I will need a few days off to revive everything. Poor MrT is going to be a little neglected for a couple of days.

First thing this morning I rang the Mediation people and told them about yesterday. Like you guys she thought that it was asking for trouble hanging out washing when your neighbour is fence painting and she said "these things happen". So.... she rings Mrs Fatty and says that she thought she may have some "issues" with me and could we arrange a meeting? Surprise, surprise..... Mrs F says that Mr F wants no part of it and wont ever agree to a meeting. So Mediator lady asks Mrs F to come to a meeting on her own to which Mrs F says that she can't leave her husband and there is no one else to care for him if she goes out - so what is the score when she leaves the flat at 8.00 am every morning to take her daughter to school and doesn't return until nearly 10am! Such a liar....

So that is it - she told Mediator lady that the clothes are still paint speckled but I don't think she got a lot of sympathy. Mediator lady asked me to see how it goes over Easter and we will decide after the weekend if they need to step in again. I am quite pleased under the circumstances that it has been handled like that. It has probably taken the wind out of her sails downstairs with me getting in first and trying to arrange a meeting to sort things out. It is her that is standing in the way of that and puts her in a bad light.
I am going to try and draw a line under it - life is too short...

I hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful weather. Aren't we lucky? It is only April, after all. Don't let this be our summer, please!

Hugs everyone

Well done in calling the mediators. Your name for the neighbour is making me laugh. I have had to apologise today for laughing at something inappropriate so i shouldn't but jolly well done for coping with today too. I heard the weather will last all week well till the weekend. I am relying on it. Blood sugars have been pants so I haven't achieved my academic work today but did washing/MSE (natural) drying and resting. It is getting dark outside.

What are your plans for the weekend? I wanted to buy a freezer this month but that is out of the question now my computer cost £270ish and i have a meet in Newcastle/Edinburgh to pay towards too so maybe next month. Fingers crossed.

Hi honey, it is so good to have you back!

Plans for the weekend - I am off to the garden section of the local DIY emporium to buy a big container (not to bury MrsF), some compost and some gravel and I am going to finish off my garden bits and bobs.
I am going to cook myself some lovely dinners, which all seems to have gone out of the window because of the long hours. I am going to have at least one bottle of wine. I am going to catch up on my reading, which I have been neglecting and I am going to walk MrT until he is at least half an inch shorter I am going to use my £10 discount code and order an online shop from MrT (the other one) unless they want paying twice as well. I am not having any of that rubbish again. In short, have a nice, chillin weekend.
Sorry to hear that you have had some sugar issues... must be horrid.

If you want to bury Mrs F, Bob (bored of being at home)has a jolly good patio area and she is open to offers.

Gosh you are doing so much well done.

If you buy online from Mr T, don't forget to check your receipt online in case you qualify for double the difference back. There is a huge thread all about the "right" things to buy to guarantee it, but I had to be sensible and only buy things I actually want, ie proper food, not just icecream and easter eggs. but it was worth it, got about £15-£17 back today. That will pay for more food this week.

Pleased the mediator seems to understand it is not you being awkward.
Yep we are a nation of chocaholics!

I bought four wicker "pepper & tomato" patio planters through Mr Ts double the value of vouchers deal which should have cost £20 but only cost me £10 of vouchers, then ordered a £20 Thomson & M?olton e-voucher with clubcard points so now how potatoes, tomatoes, broccoli and rocket ordered. Healthy living free from Mr T, thanks very muchly. The only downside was that each one takes 120 litres of compost (Al:i was the cheapest), so I'll need a bumper crop of veggies to make £15 of compost pay for itself
