I started to write a long post but deleted it because OH was wittering in my ear and I couldn't concentrate :mad: basically I'm upset because I thought that solicitors were taking on my tribunal case on no win no fee but I misunderstood and now they're saying they won't because the chances of winning aren't high enough
I've started my new job which is great and I'm working with lovely people and if it wasn't for this I'd be 10 times more angry about this other news, but at least my biggest worry about where we will get money to pay bills has now been lifted because of my new job.
I'm still angry though about my ex boss because it's not just me he's hurt, there are many others he owes money to and he's breaking the law all over the place and just keeps getting away with it :mad: This makes me so mad as he should be in prison! I've sent my 6 page report to the CQC (Care Quality Commission) , not really sure if there's any more I can do so I'll wait and see if anything comes of that.
Glad you like your new job.

thanks, was suprised how popular they were not made them for ages and had to do a second batch dd1 partner had never had them and he ate 5:eek::eek:
these were done with a cheapy bread mix,:o as its the quickest way to do them, (also a 80p mix will do 3 x 14" pizzas) rolled thinly, left to rise then add toppings and cook, I always make in large trays or individual ones in cake tins, but remember to oil them i forgot once and they were welded to the tray:rotfl: I do freeze the bases but cook first, then just need to add toppings which are usually leftovers, have frozen the complete pizza as well . and yes pesto works have done that, especially with my veggie one
thanksbut i am a simple cook really dont do anything complicated, luckily everyone here likes simple food.;) there are things i cant do. pastry, and yorkshire puddings have to be shop brought as they always go wrong:o:o presentation is not one of my strong points either, :rotfl:

Sorry to hear this Evangeline. I don't know what the way forward for you is but what I do know,is that the past is casting a heavy shadow over you. The anger that you are feeling is proof that his actions are still influencing the way you feel. Please don't let him spoil what should be a great time for you in your new job.

Online offer. Not sure if will work for click and collect.0 -
PD and I have been talking about going away for a quick weekend break after she finishes this job and before I start my next one. Budget of around £150 each....I was thinking Amsterdam maybe.
Looked into something called IDbus which is a coach from London to Amsterdam. Should only be about 20-30 quid but it's 10 hours. Don't know if I could stand it! What say you elite? Where would you go for that budget last minute?Debt free 6th December 2014

Really pleased with this. Thank you. Last time La Redoute had an offer I missed it because the code stopped working. But this worked for me, though it's a pain they don't allow sale items. I got a pack of five socks and some beautiful towels which were just made for my bathroom. They were still in my basket from last time, code 7652810, a set priced £11 though not available until November, I think it says. Paid £6 for the lot. So thank you very much, David. I also went through Topcashback as a new customer.
No idea what the trenchcoat will be like, but it can always go to the charity shop!
Champion :cool:
