Thanks everybody for your support! I decided to ignore her totally today and I'm planning to go for a lunch at Italian restaurant, might be the last one for a year - if venturing out with 2 monkeys proves difficult:rotfl:
I chased up invoices yesterday and got a response from manager that he thought accountant had paid it. I shall wait and see:cool: - I'll check my balance tonight.
The good side of my madame keeping me awake all night last weekend was that I finished my proposal and send it off and it looks like they like it - so there is a 75% chance I will be able to utilize my KIT days for some paying work:D Would love that, as flat Mat allowance is not much really.Debt: [STRIKE]-£77.299 74,209[/STRIKE]-£72,860 Projected MF date(age):[STRIKE]2044(63)[/STRIKE] 2029(48)

Rats! What else are you expecting?! Furniture wise? I would say it's amazing how you spend time getting the baby room ready, but the reality is that they don't spend much/any time in it for the first month or so.Feb 2012 - onwards MF achieved
