    Setmefree is right, we all need to share like that sometimes, SFG - picking ourselves up can really only come after that. I'm glad the pains aren't lifethreatening (tho if you're coughing enough to create that sort of pain, they must *feel* lifethreatening) but the foster children being taken away.......... terrible. No wonder you feel in a fug, thats absolutely terrible, especially when you can tell its because of office politics. I hope you're managing to sleep, and that you'll be able to turnthings around soon.

    Thank you sweetheart - I really do appreciate the kind words. xx

    Thanks - I did put that smilie in my post last night but remembered someone pointing out the dodginess before and decided against it. It really is, isn't it?

    Anyway, feeling a bit more positive today, soooo

    Thanks everyone!!!

    Sounds like its Tuesday - I may have to head up to Manchester for the first day!

    It will be good, as my previous contract fell through on renewal and I haven't worked (or earned anything) since 7th September.

    Its not the best time of year to be out of work (is there EVER a good time?!):D

    Well done on getting the job. Must be a nice feeling.
    I have been so busy with work but checked my online banking today and to my horror a transaction for £911.94 has come out of my credit card to a Link Network Ltd Neone Internet. it is in Euros too.

    I spoke to my credit card provider and they cannot see who it is so I have to make a claim to get a refund. I know I have not spend that kind of money and hope I am succesfull in getting it back. It is a lot of money and I know my card has not been stolen but it could be cloned I suspose. I only got it last month (lost the other one) and I know I have not bought anything in Euro's. Anyone else had success getting money back?
