    morning everyone, very baltic here already. I watched it sleeting from the shop window last night, it was strange to see it going virtually hortizontal!!!

    Such nice to read so many supporting comments on here, especially when someones lost a person very close. Its nice to be part of such a nice community, its just a shame the outside world isnt the same as here.

    Unixgirl, if you know for certain that the person is claiming and isnt living there, then they are stealing in effect from both you and everyone else. I understand the uncertanty when starting a new erlationship, but not when they are using it for just a stop over when they have had too much while out on the lash.

    My brother is moving house tomorrow, my mum is in total flap mode!! So far at before 8am she has rang for my freezer bag to help transport the fridge contents.

    have a good day x

    So sorry for your loss kidcat. Thinking of you and your family. You can take comfort that you were a tower of strength for your family and made your uncle's last days as comfortable as possible. Look after yourself now and take a little time to just be.

    hugs coming your way, here if you need a shoulder

    I hope you can find some time for yourself today, Kidcat, it's such a bundle of mixed emotions when there is suffering before passing.
    Do take comfort from good memories and that the knowledge that you did everything that you possibly could makes the loss a little less heavy to bear.
    Big hugs to you and sincere condolences to all who loved him.

    It's good to offer words of support and comfort, I know that I appreciate it even now but I cannot add anything better than has been expressed so far except that I am thinking of you and yours Kidcat and offer my support during this difficult time however long that may be...
