  • Aww bless you, you have done brilliantly.

    Its all sorted! You will have it running so smoothly.

    I dont know what I want and I dont know what to ask for. If I dont ask for anything will they just try it again as it wont cost them anything to try?

    They need smacked legs.

    Right Im away up stairs to package more ebay shortly, and I shall then sit and list ebays again.


    First, I will check out the diaries of course.

  • Yeah I think I should be compensated for my stress, time and of course out of pocket expenses (the bottle of wine I needed to get over it all)

    Right so far so good, peeled potatoes for tea and made the mince part of the shepherds pie (aka, the shepherd in here - Yes I know it was because it was originally lamb mince but I tell the kids I use a real shepherd.)

    pegged out three loads of washing, a further load is spinning now.
    Got in a bag of dry washing, and folded.

    I have packaged an ebay sale so I can drop it to the postie once I am on my travels.

    Ran the hoover over and wiped dirty fingermarks off things at a height of 2 year old boy.

    Eagerly anticipating something nice in the post AGAIN

    AND I paid something towards amex. Let the floodgate open!

    Ok, I have finally caught up with your diary ! Your posts are hilarious,you do make me laugh. Not the parts where you have been poorly of course, but pretty much the rest of it !

    Totally agree that you should be compensated, in wine, money , chocolates, everything and anything really for your stress !!

  • Right the kids are in the garden playing an odd game with a dogs so I shall assemble the pie of shepherds and have a bit think about how I could possibly make more money and reduce outgoings.

    Annoyingly a small package has arrived for my husband- hobby stuff.

    He has spent rather a lot on it this month. I think we need the talk.

    Another thing in the post is confirmation, again that I am to be paid PPI back from CF.

    However what they seem to be forgetting is the payment. This would negate the need for more confirmations.

    Also rang up a breakdown company I use. I had changed cars and they still were taking the money for the old car, as well as the new car and also were taking another premium for life insurance

    Call me old fashioned but hey. Cheek.

    They will reimburse me the additional money they took.

    Good.
    Right my chetties are boiling, I will give them a mash. x

  • Talking to the husband about how much compo we should be asking for...
