    they owe so they need to pay..no need for you to feel guilty about pressuring them

    I agree Taxi - it's just that one reply spent an awful lot of correspondence/time having a go at me for all my failings - seems like it was their excuse for not acknowledging the debt, let alone contacting me to sort out a payment plan,:(

    Obviously I've not "bought in" to their excuses...but for 24 hrs after their email I went through hell - Samaritans everything.......I felt so worthless.........but maybe that was their intention?

    I'm OK now..:T.and Numpty was stalwart...:cool:..but for 24 hrs it was pretty hairy and I so doubted myself :o

    Sorry to hear its been so challenging, Wol, and I really hope those repayment plans are held to, like Taxi says, its your money - I understand how those complaints can rock you tho, even when you know you've done the work well.

    Hi El

    The good thing is I recognised the tactic immediately for what it was - even though I still felt upset for a day! Add to that the fact i actually tackled the people concerned is all major progress from how i would have responded 5 or even 2 years ago. It also demonstrates that the psychotherapy is still a necessity and well worth the money I am paying each week. :cool:

    Numpty is paying a visit to see his extended furry family next month :D.......and to play with the pressure washer........not simultaneously I hasten to add :rotfl::rotfl:

    Hi KC

    If I'm honest I don;t think the 3 year one will last for more than a few months - but at least it gives me some income to pay the bills until I can get another job.:)

    How are you doing - Hope all is well chez KC :wave:

    Well-expressed Buffy :rotfl:

    The new pigs clearly didn;t enjoy their baths! Only Randy Dandy has poked his nose out to say hello today - I keep having to check the others are still alive as they are so quiet plus not eating their veggies :eek:..... Still it's not unusual for this to happen given the car journey/change in environment etc and they should settle down in a few days - They'll be getting the spot-on mite treatment tomorrow.......definitely not as traumatic as the shampoo and set last night :D

    Today's good news!

    Boiler broke down last week. It's quite an old model and spares are getting more difficult to find. :(...........Boiler man came today and said it needed a new PCB.........luckily I had picked one up off Freecycle a couple of years ago :money::money:

    ..................so he fitted it whilst he was here and I now have hot water and central heating again .....without further delay...and saved myself £150....:j:j
