    Hi Cat - nice to see you. How's Annie? I'm sorry but I have to dash off for an hour, so don't have time for a chat. Catch you next time. :beer:
    Hi she is fine but you just reminded me she asked me to let you all know that her computer is broke! which is why she hasn't been around.

    Just give her our regards when you see her.

    If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

    hi everyone.
    welcome skinted stodge,
    In true money saving style I have cancelled my ppi on my credit card that I didn't even realise I had! and also bought a dress reduced from £55 to £14! http://www.littlewoods.com/rf/navigation/product.do?Ntx=mode+matchallpartial&SNtt=dresses&Ns=prod_in_stock%7c1%7c%7cprice_est%7c0%7c%7cprod_min_base_price%7c0%7c%7cscu_id%7c1&groupId=372774957&Nu=this_product&SNtk=littlewoods_search&Np=1&SN=85+151&Ntt=372774957&D=372774957&Ntk=group_search&Dx=mode%2bmatchall&thisprod=372774957&N=85+151&Nty=1&Mis_item_id=15&Mis_item_loc_id=1&product=372774957wohoo! (becuase I have a night of freedom next week and I am going to make the most of it!)

    Wow Cattie, it's gorgeous. Where are you going to wear it?
    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D

    Hi Elatan, It's my turn to have car trouble this week. Has yours been ok since you had it fixed?
    I have spoken to a nice mechanic who I know I can trust not to rip me off and he said to drop it off outside his house and put the keys through his door. The only trouble is he lives miles away and I haven't figured out a way to get home again yet.

    cars are great when they work but murder when they dont ...mine is actually ok now no problems since (touch wood) but i will need to save for a new one i think ...can you get a bus? or can someone give you a lift? i think it's worth it if you can get someone you trust to fix your car rather than just any mechanic ...although it never is cheap to get them fixed is it

    Ours always seems to go wrong just before we go on holiday and it it usually something:
    a) serious
    b) expensive
    c) serious & expensive
    luckily, this time it's just "a" ;)
