Well bonnington ( no mistake this time !! So sorry about that over on my diary !! :rotfl:), you have had an eventful and stressful few days havent you ?

Catching up over your last few days , and thinking your trip to Norfolk was for a holiday , you can see that I tend to read quickly. Sorry ! Where did you live in Norfolk ( if you can say ) just interested as I lived there many many years ago !)

Oh and I love all music, absolutely anything, classical, folk, Dance . You name it, I will listen to it ! I think its great for the girls to hear lots of different styles of music and it doenst seem to matter what comes on they seem to recognise it, even really old stuff from donkeys years ago. I have been listening to David Garrett recently, particuarly in the car. It lovely and relaxing if you havent heard it !

Anyway, this is another 1am post :eek: am off to hit the sack now !

Hey just been catching up quickly.

We used to live in Fakenham, so we werent far from you. It was a very very long time ago now though !!

We have had sleet today mixed with sunshine and a rainbow !! What weird April weather ! I went out to my car to find it covered in snowy slush !

Sounds like you have managed to get quite a bit done today, dont be so hard on yourself .

Good luck with the Tax Return. I have recieved a letter today to tell us we have been fined £100 for not filing, but the Partnership was dissolved in 2010 which they are aware of, so I'm unsure why they feel we now need to file another. I need to get in touch with our Accoutant to see whats going on from her point of view, but we havent paid her yet, and she wont speak to us until the £600 bill is settled !! Best I get that sorted quickly then !!

Hope you have a lovely evening x

i'm with talktalk now i would never go back to bt as i think they are so expensive!!! I paid for my landline a year in advance and saved nearly £60 so pay £9.50 a month for the phone. The internet is free but i get a booster pack so unlimited download for £6.50 and free calls to landlines during the day as well as evening and weekend. When i priced it up bt were twice as much :eek: and they wonder why people are leaving them!

Hi Bonnington

Hope your move to sky goes OK, the service when up and running is great and I wouldnt personally change although if you ever experience proplems the customer service is less than impressive.

I really hope everything goes well with your wifes job, have you checked entitledto.com or being in the nhs does your wife have a benevolent fund/grant system to help with anything I know she dont know about the debts but she is aware of the boiler loan and maybe able to get a grant to help. I used one when I was a civil servant for my water rates its very simple. Some unions also provide this service.

Thanks Happy. :T

I have the results of my sleep apnea and I fall in the moderate range. The night I was monitored in March I had almost 19 events per hour, which means I stopped breathing this many times. This is about once every three minutes. :eek:
Over the seven hour sleep this is about 130 times, no wonder I'm always tired when I wake up. :eek:
I have found a sleep apnea site and they have some videos. It's quite scary watching a video of someone doing this knowing that I am doing it about 19 times an hour.
I am visiting the hospital next Tuesday and they may give me a CPAP machine to wear when I go to sleep. This is wearing a mask and air from the room is pumped through to keep my airways open to allow me to breath normally. Also the website advises this can cause your blood pressure to increase, which I suffer from also.


Bonnington, my dad has sleep apnea and the CPAP machine and it has worked wonders for him. We all used to worry he would fall asleep when driving or suchlike but he is much better. On the noise front my mum is a very light sleeper and she learnt very quickly to "ignore" the noise.

Dad has a heart condition and high blood pressure but if anything again the Cpap helps not hinders. What ever the hospital say I hope it works out well for you


I have been feeling quite depressed since watching a programme on BBC 2 yesterday evening about the 70's. I've seen part of it and have the rest on Sky Plus. It brought back so many memories. In 1980 the price of a two bedroom terraced house was £8,000

If only I had saved my money when I first started work in 1979 I could have had a house within 3 or 4 years.
How the world has changed since the 70's. Some for the good and some for the worse.
How I wish I had lived my life differently and saved my money and not spent it. Although the current debt was from the last few years.


They say hindsight is a wonderful thing but we cant look back


H~aving said about not spending any money, the car is now due for a service as it was done about one year ago. Also the oil change due soon light is on. I phoned the local garage and the cost is £170 for a full service. I called the main dealer and the cost is £169 less 10% discount I get as a loyalty card customer.

This is money I don't have and will increase the debt yet again. :doh:

Have a look on my diary for our garage woes of the past two weeks:eek: I know it may not help you but will show we are all in the same boat


Hope you feel a bit better today and that you get the other laptop back soon, chin up and take care
