Your post this morning just sounded wonderfully balanced, you are right to ask the kids dad to support and it's great you are making yourself a priority too!

Thank you
Older two in school and youngest is okay. Still up and down breathing wise.
Anyway waiting for the postman in the hope he has the cheque then I can head into town to cash it and put it in the bank today.
No other plans. The sun is shining and the cleaning is done.
Have a lovely day

Catching up after not being on here much this week.
Apologies if I’ve picked this up wrong, but it sounds like you are planning to use a cheque cashing place rather than putting the cheque straight into the bank. If that’s the case, please ask at your bank how long they take now to process cheques first. A lot of them are doing next day clearance as standard now. That way you’ll get the whole £50 XxDebts @ LBM £23,729.31. Debts @ 08/04/2016 £0 :j

Good news on no need for an appointment for a year. And well done for going to your own appointment and getting their dad to have them whilst you go next time :T
I was in big town near us last week - don’t know if you’re heading there at all - but near Northern Warehouse there’s a massive fake beach with sand - there were lots of folk having picnics on stepped seating around the edges and children of all ages playing. I thought of you for a cheap day out maybe coupled with MOSI which is free to get in...not sure if you’ve got to head that way for any of your appointments...January spends - £587.580 -
