    Do they make or just sell the furniture? If just sell, can you tell who makes it & try going direct?

    That's terrible about the couch, I would put in a complaint after you've received your couch and include trading standards with your complaint xx

    I will look and see if I can find the address and do that Abba. They sell the couch. The website still says that price I saw so its not changed.

    Went to Carlisle, safe to say I will not be going back, without going into details I am really let down by what happened.

    10 days to payday xx

    Morning. 9 days until payday. Hopefully hear about delivery of my couch next week :)

    Newcastle following weekend with my friend I got her for her 30.

    My boy got an outstanding report card. Shows them for what they put us through a few years back of torture implying about him. xx

    Tonight seeing my friend and treating her to chinese will not say why but it is very much needed. This weekend going to Driftwood with my friend to use our groupon and then hers for some drinks. Then a quiet one for rest. Want to proper clean my house for new couch in couple weeks and hope I get a phone call next week about delivery date. If I do not hear by Wednesday will contact them and ask about it.

    Finish up next Friday for my summer holidays,will be just days out with my boy .... unless I win money... lets all laugh at that lol :P

    Off to read some diaries xx

    Morning. Sorry I have not posted. For no reason just did not post lol.

    Two days til payday finally! Will have my couch money ready (awaiting call for delivery date this week, if not heard by tomorrow will message and ask)

    The weekend was really good. Friday night ended up being lets say drunk understatement but really needed it tbh, in my friends singing (albiet so badly, theres video backing my claim up though my friends a liar saying I was on point....) Saturday I had my niece and took her to softplay and Sunday me and my boy chilled by walking everywhere as we love walking :D

    This weekend Friday night quiet one but packing as off to Newcastle for the weekend :D I cannot wait! Off following two weeks and have a few things planned with my boy like getting his mop cut (spiderman design in as hes allowed any design while off school) going to see Spiderman, day trips out here and there in Scotland also :) No holidays abroad but sacrificed for couch :D

    Nothing else to add that I can think of. Had an unexpected factor bill for my house but I had the money to pay for it. Also as couch bill higher than normal only paying off £50 to overdraft and bringing it down to £500. I have to take in holidays for this.

    July I have savings to think of, my sisters 40 to pay for and my sons school uniform to pay for going back (not even summer holidays and I am thinking of this already :P) plus he needs new trainers but getting this off June wage :D xx
