    I can delete comments but cant delete her status :(

    Sadly I did give her the muffins, she had her partner come to the door to 'gang up' almost and I had my baby in my arms. I was in no position to argue.

    :O If that was genuine, that the cakes were that bad, she would have come on her own! I can't beleive that! Was she happy with them when you delivered them?

    It was her mum who took the delivery-checked and everything. Then it supposedly disintegrated overnight...?!

    oh nat :( don't let people like that bully you on FB again! They can say what they like but I have friends around that area, I could promote you on FB and I think you would soon get more customers that are genuine, than that fraud! :mad:

    sorry you are out of pocket now :(

    Hey Nat have you thought about writing a deliver note type thing that states something like sold as seem. then the person you deliver to signs to say they have the cake as are happy with the condition?

    Might make them think about compaining less as they may feel they wouldnt have a leg to stand on although it would make no differents

    £5.80 Lottery win - I know this sounds ungrateful but it actually made me feel worse for a while. I think it's that few minutes between seeing the "you have won" email & checking the amount I was deliberately not allowing myself to get excited but I still had that moment of " s*!t - I've got to go back to work on Monday !".

    DS off to his Dad's for the weekend so off to the gym now then decluttering this aternoon - trying to gather up some broken bits of jewellery to see if I've got enough to make it worth selling. Also trying to find my ipod shuffle which has gone missing. Might try to list a few bits of ebay too.

    My mobile appears to have died - trying to see if I can revive it with a new battery but got a feeling I'm going to be paying out for a new one soon.

    Feeling a bit moany today - sorry :(

    Jesa & Nat 21 - sorry to hear about your set-backs - so annoying for both of you.

    Long time no 'see'! I can't use the internet like I used to be able to in my last job and have just been so busy - I can feel myself slipping :(

    To add:
    £100 invoice for freelance work paid
    £20 scratchcard win (I didn't buy it - gift from my mum!)
    £9.20 mid-month payment from Qu*d co

    I'm less than £50 off target though (how did that happen?!) so I just need to focus.

    Big hugs to you, Nat - I've just had a buyer on eBay complaing that the purse was sent without a box when I never said it would be, but it's made me feel so anxious and worked up even though I know I'm in the right. Sorry you've got it worse :mad: Some people are SO rude.

    Not posted for a while because I have been away on business - managed to not spend much whilst away though which I am pleased about.

    Had to take my new jacket with fleece lining back to the shop today because it had faulty zips on the pockets so I had a charge back of £29.99 to my card (unfortunately I visited another hiking shop and came out with a new jacket and a fleece..but the way I look at it although the jacket was really expensive, if I lose a toggle then it is replaced and if I should get it damaged then it can be repaired plus the jacket is likely to last me about 20 years so I figured it was a more cost effective spend.

    Received £6 in PK Own vouchers today too they have been added to the pile and I will likely do a big Waitrose shop with them.
