    Tell me why you're storing all this - not another tiny pigpen in the offing :rotfl:

    Maybe in a year or 2.. but not yet! I'd save it for one of my offsprung now though.

    WE knew there were going to be redundancies but DH would have been 1 of the last to go but they've closed the whole place so everyone's out.

    I'm so sorry to hear that :( Do you need help with what else you may be entitled to - the other boards on here are really good, but PM me (or some of the other Flyladies with specialist knowledge) if you need more help.

    Good luck :A

    I've had a lovely time with friends, and the host made this cake - delicious :T

    Going to do a mad HHC starting now, if anyone else is in :)
