  • Hope your daughter feels better soon and able to deal with things. Its been a really bad year and there are some virulent bugs around.

    I agree with you but I also think that its a nice demonstration of your love that you are trying to get Dad back for her. If it works or doesnt work let her know how you have all tried to make it happen, so she knows the lengths people will go to for her. :)

    Hi Mrs PG - a LONG-time lurker here (sounds v creepy now I've typed it) - but have had to come out of lurkersville to say how BRILLIANTLY you are doing on your debt-busting! Have been away from MSE for a while, but logged in today and can't believe how much you have paid off.

    Sorry things are so tough for you all at the mo.

  • Hi PG, I hope DD had a wonderful birthday and that Mr PG made it home in time (and that the client paid for it). DS2 celebrated his birthday yesterday. Must be something in the air at this time of year as I know several other people with birthdays over the Easter weekend. :)

  • Boo to the car troubles, rubbish weather making us all full of snuffles and ironing!!! We've had car troubles recently too but thankfully the loud rattling noise stopped on the morning it was due to be looked at so i cancelled the appointment ;). I don't iron unless something is super creased, most kids clothes i buy i look for non creasing materials now (sooooooooo lazy, yes I know ;) ) I hope DD is feeling better soon, and I hope Mr P gets back soon to spend a day with you all.

    Im back very quickly. All is well in the Pinot Household.

    Quick update -

    Mr PG made it home for DD2's birthday......the cunning plan worked. More in another post about that one though.

    DD2 had great birthday but still poorly, sadly. Another £30 spent int he chemist yesterday. I will take her back to docs next week if no improvement again.

    Car Trouble continues, been back to garage but they darent touch the area where they think the problem is as they feel the car will never come out of the garage or the bill will be far more than the car is worth. Mr PG and I need to put our heads together here, we have to have two reliable cars but not sure how we buy another. In the meantime the car is running and I am making Mr PG drive it and I am driving the newer car ! :D

    Mr PG took 3 whole days off of work ! :j He managed to complete a small list of jobs, ie fix the clothes rail in DD1's wardrobe that had collapsed underneath the weight of her extensive clothing collection ! :rotfl:

    M00£croft have been harassing us with calls. I have not paid them anything but have written to them requesting a copy of the original credit agreement. They wrote back yesterday advising that they have requested this from their client ( which we presume is A££0w) they in turn we presume will have to get this from MBN@. In the meantime once again the account is back on hold. They did though ask me to provide all documentation I will be relying on should we go to court re this while we are waiting ! Errr I dont think so ! Should they provide me with a copy of the agreement the next battle is then the disputed amount. This one could drag on . Only time will tell.

    Another £200 paid to THEM, see signature below. :j

    Hope you all had a lovely Easter, hello to you lovely Lurkers. Great to see you all, thankyou for your lovely messages.

    Juggling work and school hols so It may be a few days before I am back again .

    Take Care everyone xxx
