    Tenth Anniversary Combo Breaker Xmas Saver!
    Am feeling very upset this evening, just heard through a mutual friend that the guy who's looking after my dogs literally has no money left and had to go and pawn the only thing of value he has left - his wedding ring. JSA have mucked his payments up yet again! They seem to do this every few months on him even though he turns up on time for his appointments, makes me so angry!!!
    He won't talk to me about it because I'm paying him to look after my babies and leant him money at Xmas and told him not to pay me it back unless he wins loads on the lottery. He feels he's let everyone down but we explain to him how much he has helped me and my son know our babies are being looked after in a home environment and not cooped up in a kennel for most of the day. He also fosters dogs (should say failed fosterer cause he's kept the ones he took on), he lost his job through 'restructuring' and has felt this way for the past 9 months.
    Hopefully he finds the little surprise I left for him this evening, enough food to do the dogs and cats for a couple of weeks, hopefully, along with cleaning stuff. I'll turn up tomorrow with more food for themselves and hopefully it'll tide them over until he gets his JSA sorted yet again!

    I quite like it, except that instead of this;-

    No they were from B&Q and Mr Lala sort of adapted them and then screwed them to the wall:)


    Thanks, I'll have to go looking for some. My mum's going crazy with the amount of stuff I have stashed in various places in her house so have cleared out one of the sheds so I can put all my stuff in it but need shelving units for it :D

    Don't usually show my stashes, I'd never show them fully:o:o:o Mr Lala has OCD, that's why their so tidy he's in charge of putting it all away and arranging it, I just "source" it all;)OMG can you imagine being in the paper, Mr Lala would find it hysterical as would all my friends, they all think I'm mad with my glitches;)I could be the next Judith Wenban!!!! not;):rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I get free bags and free prescriptions in England but only because i have a life threatening illness (that sounds worse than it is), So caz i make it the only thing you win on is the nice accent as i def dont have one of them lol :rotfl:

    Sorry to hear that :o Everyone here gets free prescriptions. I've had them free for years anyway because I was preggers but at least now I don't have to have more kids to get the odd free course of antibiotics!

    It's really good fun but be prepared to get protective of your stash;);););) and it's not unusual to sit and admire it!:o

    Thank crunchie it's not just me! Love your pics but you're lucky you have someone sensible to put it all. I'm in awe :D

    I'd take pics but the effect is nowhere near as good as Nikki's as mine is spread across the garage, kitchen, attic, hot press, 2 different under stairs cupboards and spare room. The ex used to give off at how much stuff was in the attic. He'd choke if he saw it now. Actually, there's an idea :rotfl:
