Well I think I may have got the bay of E issue sorted, although tbh it is nothing official, just a couple of emails thanking me for paying my bill and allowing me to use my account again, ehhh nope didnt pay the bill as it wasnt my bill to pay and wont be using the bay of E again as their customer service is appalling, but if that is it sorted then I am relieved.
Have landed up treating myself to a foot spa, as my feet kill me after work, I am in agony every shift, so hopefully a wee foot spa every night will help.
Was great to see you Butti, hopefully will see you again soon Hopefully this year I will meet up with Beanie, Skinty, Bob and Memory girl again as well 0 -

Oh dear I remember it well! I was a single parent with 2 kids doing my training and working evenings and 1 weekend day in the bingo hall to get by (not very well I must add - this is when my debt started!!!) But it was definitely worth it - my current work place reminds me of that every day! (I work in a hospice!) - you will get there - and I can see you are motivated to off set your mortgage but you do need to look after you in all this!!! You're garden will wait!!!0

The foot spa sounds like a very good purchase, I have to say that I don't miss jobs where I had to walk around for 9-10 hours a day.
Hope you're plotting a way through all the disruption and managing to enjoy whatever small triumphs come along? 0
