    ..

    Quite a lot at the mo Z. I'm like a 1970's Dougal - Farrah Fawcett cross. You remember Crystal Tipps & Alistair???

    Although I'm not menopausal and am tweezing my chin SO I don't think I can yet be accused of lycanthropy!

    So you look like Farrah Faucet, but with a big black nose?

    I do. You have hair in the shape of a Christmas tree?

    It would take a bit more than tweezing to tame the hair on a lycanthrope, especially today when it's just past full moon...

    Not properly Z. I had to check there was no kneecapping clause or one where they've secured the property on your teeth!

    Sent a complaint to my energy supplier FU (Did nobody spot that when they were doing 'name creating'?) saying (I paraphrase here)

    Where's my loyalty payment?
    I asked for it in November ....then I asked for it in February....
    and inbetween I rang you twice.....and got cut off both times.....
    Here's a copy of the letter I am sending to the consumer pages of the Guardian in a couple of days time if I don't get a response


    Phone call an hour later from the lovely Sebastian [who was lovely] and two emergency cheques for £215 or thereabouts :D Suddenly my mortgage/ moving in buffer is looking a hell of a lot healthier.

    I subsequently went to the bank and fed in my £200 amount to savings for this month


    Today tis a good day :D
