Hugs to lady whose DH has kidney trouble
Have caught up on the thread, you lot can chat! But lots of flying too:p
I have had 4 days work this week:j
Dad is now home from hospital, he was brought home late thurs night by ambulance with oxygen. I rushed around again, putting his heating on, then fetching shopping, then cleaning his pantry out while waiting for him to arrive. so what does the prat do the next day? Only drive his car to morrisons so his partner can fetch food and he can fetch cash:eek::eek::mad::mad: !!!!!!! So angry I could strangle him. Been to see him today and given him a lecture about how foolish he was. Fell like the parent telling off a selfish child.
Thank you for letting me rant:o

Thank you
i think we have to buy the car seats first and then claim the money back from the insurance once we provide proof or purchase.
I am hoping this will not effect his no claims as he has asked to claim of the blokes insurance but we will just have to wait and see I guess.
I have just cleaned the bath room i washed the dogs yesterday and you could tell lol well it was easily cleaned.0 -
