    Hi Beanie, it's BOB aka Boredofbeingathome. Had to get a new account as can't log into my old one :/ Just wanted to say keep on plodding and hope all comes right for you. The system stinks at times. Waves to Z and other cronies. :)
    Bob! :j:j:j

    Great to see you. :wave:
    Sorry diary is a wee bit fraught at present.
    Hope all well with you. :).
    This assessment thing :(

    Waiting to see if/how they reject you also means that whatever you present during any appeal is geared specifically to their attempt to disbar you, rather than them being able to dismiss it by pretending it doesn't answer their specific point.

    Good luck, beanie :kisses3:

    And you all Beanie.:j It's my spiritual home so to speak. Had to change email addresses and laptop-well long story short-no way of resetting my password. Usually pretty good on these things as well. ::mad:

    I hope your day was okay?
    If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them

    Thank you doing it anyway & bubbles.
    Yesterday was indeed a day for living.
    Did a stint at the local FB & then later on had an Indian & some rose with DS & GF & the lodger to celebrate someone birthday.

    Am trying very hard at present to keep on top on all the wee jobs that seem to constantly need doing. Hard going to be honest but needs to be done.

    The little stuff really adds up, doesn't it :( I'm glad you also had a "day of living" - a birthday celebration is a lovely thing :)
