Well I popped to Paddington today to retrieve promised counters from the statue and now I'm all covered in Marmalade. Then this little bear in a warm coat and wellington boots started chasing me looking rather upset!

So, it's been quite an eventful Monday morning for me and it's not much past 9am!!!

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: This made me inhale my tea instead of swallow. Not a pretty sight

I'd have a word with Mr & Mrs Brown regarding that bear's conduct

you'll do well round here Nora if you like ducks there's loads round here, infact even during 'rush hour' the cars will stop to let ducks and their babies cross the road. And when one was knocked over in our (smaller) town there was a snotty letter from someone in our town's newletter having a right go at the person who had done it.

On a random-yet-related-note, you've reminded me that I received a fab Paddington mug for Christmas...*scurries off to find it amongst the boxes*

Woke up at 3.30am, and just couldn't get back off to sleep. Thought I'd come and hassle you lot.

I really hate money.

I mean, I'm not in the best of moods at the moment anyway (ahhh, the troughs of depression....), but there are times when both having and lacking money is simply the pits.

- BT have added their joy - £101 final bill...most of which is around me having to break the contract...;

- my ex-landlord decides he wants almost all of my £1200 deposit (yes, I've nipped over to the scary thread on renting etc. (where people seem very shouty with each other), and have asked for advice - happy to pay if it's right to do so, but thought I'd better get a second (or third, fourth and fifth) opinion from others with hopefully more experience;

- Tescos managed to muck up sending my PPI cheque out (instead, I got a letter saying they'd consider my loan application!!!) - the lovely Jan promises me she'll sort it...but that £6350k would be very nice about now...

In good news, I got the Council Tax rebate, In balancing out the good news, I appear to have spent it and more on my spendy day a while back. Thank God I assumed I'd be a total nightmare and took out cash to cover known spends (which I've stuck to) for the rest of the month, otherwise I'd be toast.

Ooo, first response on my plea for help from the other forum...let's hope they've been gentle!!

Tooty bye for now... *dons protective gear and nips over to the other thread*

...and since I appear to be in a sulky mood, I'm just gonna stand here and say that I don't like the new fixed width forum....and I've changed my view back to the stretchy one...so there...nuh....*folds arms, stamps foot and makes 'evil eyes' at the world*
