    How upsetting :( Hope they get to the bottom of it, and give Most Handsome a carrot from me xx
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Sending you virtual hugs, it must be awful with all the waiting and wondering while you try to get to the bottom of it all

    PS, I like the Marlowe too

    thanks both.
    Went to Royal Windsor Horse Show yesterday and realised I must be done because I couldn't actually be bothered to look round the trade stands.
    Saw friends horse complete and do very well, not placed, but did very well.
    Back at work today and computer failure. Finally had to call IT chappie in. 20 mins and he fixed it - goodness knows what bill will be for that but I am back on line :)
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Most Handsome has referral to Royal Vet College.


    On a brighter note I have decided to use the money from ebay sales to invest on the stock market. Now, it won't be a lot, but it might be fun. I think I can do this whilst overpaying and still hopefully meet my target. It won't be a lot, but it seems a nice use of the cash :)

    Sounds good, Watty! It certainly fits the definition of "money you can afford to lose", which is the warning emblazoned on every website ...

    I'm glad Most Handsome has a referral to the RVC - there's got to be a specialist who can help him, and they'll know, surely?

    Well hopefully we will find something out there. Just waiting for dates to come through.
    Re considering spending the paypal cash on shares for fun as might need it for vet bill as suspect we are about to go over the insurance limit.


    And laughably I have now injured during the weight training session of keep fit programme. He even goes on in the session about being careful but no, Watty kept going!! Was sore yesterday and am now beyond sore and will need to swallow painkillers to get through the day. Sometimes there is no option but to laugh at the grimness of it all :rotfl:

    Oh bleep! Thats, erm, a pile of bad news :( but yes, hang on to the money if you're near the insurance limit - it just shows how long this has been unresolved for poor Most Handsome ... and least said about self inflicted injuries, the better :kisses3:
