Huge hugs, I know how you feel just before we were due to go away in July our petrol tank started leaking. Luckily keeping it under half full stopped the problem. Hopefully your won't be as bad as it seems either.Barclaycard 3800

I know how you feel IDA, we are supposed to be in Devon this week, but due to a dates mix up, we are at home too!
I hope you do manage to get away. I am sure you will, and you will enjoy the remaining few days. If you don't manage it, then you will be able to enjoy the time together at home doing things you don't normally do - we are actually having a pretty good week, despite the kids being devastated a couple of weeks ago when the mix up came to light.

Do you ever get the feeling that "something" has got it in for you???
My husband and ds2 bikes have now been stolen ...... I know the car breaking down, missing (3 days so far) our holiday and now 2 bikes are small fry in comparison to many peoples problems but at the moment it just feels like the world and his wife have got it in for us!! Just wanted to rant I feel like crying.
