    Wet, grey and horrible for past three days (hence the urge to run away). Having one of those weeks where the more I do to sort something out, the more work it creates. Spent ages signing up to my new energy account. Very security conscious so had to fill in a form, enter password twice then go back to my email account and go back through another portal only to be denied entry at the final hurdle - Access denied. Checked everything but gave up in the end, will try again when feeling stronger.

    Still waiting for one final cheque from old supplier, so trying to judge the right moment to nudge them again. They are really impossible so have to gird my loins for that one.

    I only have a tiny voice telling me that it's not me who's incompetent and am fighting the urge to hide in a corner and cry.
    My mission in life is not only to survive,but to thrive and to do so with some Passion, some Compassion, some Humour and some Style.

    It's definitely not you who's incompetent. I seem to get "access denied" quite a lot too :cool:
