    Can I have a quick rant.

    I filled in my forms for my Icapacity Benefit weeks ago. It takes me ages as I am not good with things like that, even with a photocopy of the last one. My neighbour offered to post it as I was house bound at the time. They sent the forms back agan today for me to fill in again. I rang and they hadn't recived them. Just checked online and by benefit has not gone through this month so we are a lot down and I was counting on that. All I can surmise is she didn't post the bloody thing :mad: :mad: God I'm fuming. Just before Christmas to.

    I'm off to bed now so night, night.

    Where I went to school we used to get chocolate milk. I can still remember that awful smell of milk cartons. It was only just bearable. If they ran out of chocolate I never drank the white milk. YUCK!

    Thanks fyp - we are very busy - didn't get home till 2 am this morning, but have today off. It finishes on Sunday, for Christmas, and they may put me on a 'seasonal' basis if it tails off in the new year. That kind of suits (other than the money) as I am working on a project that will get me back in business.

    2 am! thats late. Great news about your business. I wish you all the success with it. After my last business fiasco I am going to build up my other business this year and get back on track. All the stress of the business closing is taking its toll on my marriage and can't believe all the blame I'm getting. I just hope we can ride this out. Happy New Year!

    The first time we said hello, was the first time we said goodbye. As the angels took your tiny hand and flew you to the sky-you forever left us breathless. RIP my beautiful granddaughter :(
