    Evening everyone....sorry I've not been about much ...I have a little person who needs loads of attention staying until tomorrow!!!...he's in bed asleep now....HE really enjoyed himself at the wildlife park yesterday....he was good really...he loved all the animals especially the lemurs and the fruitbats...he tried to get in with the lemurs!!!....it was really good value £10.50 in total for the 3 of us!!...£10.50 for adults...I had a ticket buy one get one free and under 3s are free...so excellent value and grand dad bought dinner..so cheap day out really....
    I've had little man out most of the day as grandad needed to sleep as he works nights and JJ is so noisy...lol...so we went to the shops and the park today....
    Tiscali fiasco still goes on ...if I get charged they will pay it....why can't anything be simple?
    It's been lovely weather this week so have managed to get loads of washing and drying done and it's great to take little man out.....though he's wearing me out...

    Glad to read that you have had a good few days (tiscali excepted, obviously!). The weather here has been pants - more like October, we have even had our heating on!!! Sounds like you have been a bit luckier!

    I hope you have a good weekend x

    Flippin heck woman - if that is a day when you haven't done a lot, I would be hate to be in your path on a busy day - might get knocked sideways as you act in the manner of a hurricane!!!

    I hope you manage to put your feet up this evening, and good luck for the car boot tomorrow x

    Afternoon all....
    I haven't done a lot today only the washing and hanging it out as I'm tired.The car boot went ok yesterday...I ended up £28 in profit...not a lot but something towards debt!!!..it wasn't as busy as I'd expected it to be...so will probably do another one to get rid of the other stuff...
    I had a little sleep when I got back from the car boot and then popped to my mates cafe to pick up JJs jumper that I'd left there and ended staying until nearly 11 o,clock...
    Today I have stayed in as I needed to rest really ..so just chilled out..just going to chill out and watch tv tonight...
    Hope you've all had a good week end

    Afternoon all...hope you're all ok...as I'm not I'm really peed off!!!...Why is there no customer service left in this world?....Talk Talk have slammed my phone(illegally took my line rental)...so have had to launch a complaint with BT..and to get it back to BT....so thats that one sorted I think!!!....Tiscali are still driving me up the wall and I've been talking to higher authority there...whom assures me he will have the answers this afternoon and will phone me back...we'll see....I've launched a 2nd complaint via ISPA regarding all this so will have to see what happens...as they have to resolve the issue or give me a deadlock letter and a ref number that I can use to get CISAS involved...so we'll see.
    The man from Tiscali said that if he couldn't sort out what needed doing then he would put everything back to normal and that I'd be compensated for all the inconvenience....
    Sorry rant over...they've really upset me today...
    I've just updated my sig and now owe under £42000 so that's good...so something on a positive note.I haven't been out of the door today and haven't banked the take as I'm now waiting for Tiscali phoning me back...so going to put the dinner on now...
    I hope you're all having a better day than me!!!!
