- having an amazing husband, who I love very much and who love me
- having an amazing bunch of kids
- having the best parents/family ever
- live in an amazing house/area
- having a great job
- travelling a lot/holidays
- doing xyz stuff
.. and then they'll post some cute picture of happiness, or cupcakes.
.... and I think "Yeah - so why the f**** SHOULD I be f****** grateful???"
Just read one elsewhere.
I have to bite my tongue every time.
Maybe you really should try pointing as a career? You'll be on building sites, which are full of *men*. You'll soon find a lovely husband. You'll be doing a great job, specialising in high quality work, and travelling a lot, etc etc etc.No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0 -
I have an amazing westie.

The peugeot hard top convertible doesn't appeal so much, based purely on style/aesthetics I think. The 308 isn't appealing to me really.
Do you need a 4-seater? Otherwise, I'd say try a Mazda MX-5. Very simple cars (as modern cars go), very reliable, and lots of fun. I'd go for the soft-top myself. The metal roofs are not really worth the hassle, and they take up most of the boot with the roof down. The soft-top is manual, so much less to go wrong.No reliance should be placed on the above!

Bear in mind too, that they have started running round saying we couldn't pay them so thats why they didn't finish. its come back to us originally in a letter, but subsequently from a few people advised not to do any work for us, as we weren't good for the money. Never, ever, have not paid.
They are now saying they thought their solicitors were dealing with it. (Its ever taken them a week from judgement being given to complain) . Thus their issue should be with their solicitors really.
So even that is someone else's fault? There was a letter emailed to us which read along the lines of "the dog ate my homework" except it was several dogs in many different places - all over the UK, if I recall.
You can leave reviews of companies all over the internet, but you can't leave reviews of a client, unfortunately, or we'd happily leave one for you Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.
