    Oh my, I meant to also say have a fab time in Oz Nanamia, you deserve it! Enjoy your family, the sunshine and the relaxation. :)

    I am also very excited about Christmas Kayandy, I keep telling everyone there's less than 6 months to go but I don't think they like me very much when I tell them that! :p

    Although I have to admit, for all of the planning I did at the beginning of the year I thought I would have a lot more done by now! Must get my skates on....

    Sorry lovelies i just need to rant:
    My DH (and the D doesnt stand for Dear) ex, left us in a lot of debt, including a massive overdraft, and bank wont chase him because it has to be someone at this address, so i am having to pay it off (well poor DD1) we made an arrangement to pay off £60 a month and the bloke said that would cover the interest and take £30 off the overdraft a month, and we said that is ok but that is all we can stretch to, so we paid first instalment and what do i get through the post today, a bloody default letter saying i havent honoured arrangement so i was so mad (i actually picked up phone and rung myself !!!!!!!) and explained to the woman, she says bloke shouldnt have said that because it doesnt cover all the interest and we have now defaulted :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: i am so angry we are very tight this month and now have to find the shortfall because someone as usual didnt do their job properly, honestly the more honest and wanting to sort your debts out you are, the worse you are treated.
    SORRY but i just had to get it off my chest.

    Oh freespirit I would be super mad too!!!!! :mad: I haven't been in this situation but I know where you're coming from when you say about people not doing their job properly. Since going through buying a house, getting married, complaining to BA about a delayed flight etc all we come across is people who make silly mistakes all the time and we end up doing their job for them! It's so frustrating isn't it, especially in your situation. One person making a small mistake like that has now upturned everything for you this month. I am mad for you and I do hope you can get all of this sorted out and it doesn't cause too much trouble for you. :( I hope they can see that this isn't your fault and it's not held against you in the future. I shall certainly join you in some chocolate cake! :T

    freespirit These people really don't get it do they. They are playing with other people's life's. To them you are just a number. :mad:
    They go home at the end of the day, without a care to what turmoil or headaches they have caused. :mad:
