    I cannot stop thinking about liver now. Lovely chicken livers on toast.......

    ...or in a salad with croutons and a nice French dressing.

    I am far too cold for salad.:(.

    I alsop forgot to bring wood in for the wood burner, so I have about six logs left. Then I think I might start on the kitchen chair. Its a bit broken and I have been warning it for ages....

    I wonder how many other people employed this cleaner silvercar?

    What a shock you must have had your nerves will be shattered, so sorry this has happened to you, its such a shame that a two year trust was broken in this way.

    It's called a warm salad. I often have it for a first course when I'm in France.

    Too cold.

    I like warm salads, but not when it's as cold as it is now. In fact, I can find it hard to eat salads at all in the winter months, though I do when I can.

    I thought this, but then her last job before she went home was at me, so I could be the last one to know....or the only one.

    OH says it could be a friend as she occasionally brought a friend with to clean with her in half the time. The last one I suspected was not actually doing any cleaning, but that was a few weeks ago...which means she must have waited to enact the theft until the cleaner was leaving. I think we don't want to think evil of our nice cleaner. Either way she brought problems to the door.

    DS psychology student says there is no such thing as free will, that we mustn't hate her, but should try and understand that she may have been brought up with different values and morals.:mad:

    I think that your OH may have hit the nail on the head and your cleaner may be totally unaware of what has happened. Is there any way that the cheques can be traced to an address where the offender may dwell?

    The advice given that you mustn't hate her is 100% correct as nothing is ever gained if you take to hating a person, it would only give you greater stress in the end, the young lady is totally innocent of all charges until proved otherwise, as you say her values and morals could well be distances apart from yours.

    Until you find out the full truth that is.
