Lots of companies do credit checks on employees now, especially if they have any links to the FSA. New employees with our company now need a credit check on employment. Its a shame if someone has been a bit useless or carelss when younger, and it affects their job prospects

Hello peeps, we too have a bright & breezy day so am taking advantage of DS being away & have got his bedding on the line & will sort through his clothes to see what needs decluttering. Will also get his winter jackets cleaned & mended so at least one of us will be sorted for winter :cool:
Have already been into town this a.m to get birthday present for DF, now wrapped & posted 1st class so hopefully it will get there tomorrow in time for his birthday on Sunday.
Dinner tonight will be rissotto using lo chicken & fridge bottom veg.
Am off now for a tutorial on you tube on how to knit in the round :eek: B&Sil have a little girl due this week & I want to make some baby uggs, have also got too make up DP's jacket which did not get finished last week as some numpty forgot to buy buttons

Thanks guys - i am going to email him over the weekend to explain my siuation - it sucks as i'm six months in and good credit wasn't a pre-requisite when i joined (or i wouldn't have bothered!) The form says its too check i've no ccjs (which to my knowledge i don't have) and as i just do admin it might be okay - shame it's not my employer that needs these checks it's one of our customers - and they've not done it to any of the old staff either! I had no choice really as they will stop sending work if we don't comply so either way i'm stuffed...

trying not to think about it too much.

HELP! Last night I managed to tip a whole freshly made cafetiere of coffee all over the lounge carpet. I did all the right things, swept up the grounds, blotted up as much surplus coffee as possible, (used a whole roll of Plenty and an old towel) and have spent hours frantically scrubbing with 1001. This is obviously going to be a loooooong job, the big brown stain has only slightly faded. Does anyone out there have any miracle tips?
Apart from ruining a perfectly good carpet I've weeded a bit of the front garden, only stopped for half an hour to chat to friends who were passing, made coffee for other friends who called in (instant!)(instant coffee, old friends) and spent about an hour looking for a mislaid recipe. Found recipe and made fruit cake for DS2 who is coming to our caravan on holiday tomorrow. So not a very productive day so far.

monnagran try the stain treaters that are used for getting stains from clothes there should be one for coffee, put it on and leave it on then try sponging again the next day

Bramble - glad its all ok x

have made Lone Wolf's plum pud that she recommended yesterday - looking forward to tasting it:) the rest of the plums are stewed and also did the rhubarb.

Have turned up 2 pairs of DSs work trousers - they were too long in the leg and getting wrecked so I cut some off and turned them up(hope they fit now:D)
Had a coffee with my uncles partner, chat with my sister and done lots of jobs so am pleased.:)

Just need to decide whats for tea now.
