    Hi All

    Sorry I have been a bit quiet over the last few days although I have been lurking.

    Pania - have sent you pm

    MOT - I am so sorry that the decision makers chose to interpret the rules in a way the rest of us may not agree with and that therefore will cause you and your family additional pain and stress. This is not a judgement on you as a person or as a family, nor on the capabilities of those who have worked very hard and given so much of their time to help you with this Appeal (IT, FLoss 2, Ampersand etc and now Pania - plus all the other posters). You are all wonderful people and I have been completely blown away by all of you -a tribute to all the best in human nature.

    I am absolutely convinced there will be a silver lining to this dark cloud - will pm you during the week.

    Ref: Storage - Have you checked out Big Yellow in Luton - pay one month up front, monthly fee but no reclaimation charge (according to my next door neighbour who has just been re-possessed and is utilising their services) - I may have misunderstood the T's and C's of your storage, but your £1000 to reclaim is exhorbitant I think!!

    Good luck - I pray that you and your family will to be able to move forwards now to a bright and successful future and look forward to hearing from Pania.

    Kind regards

    Thanks for clarifying MOT. I'm sure you will find a lovely home - and when you do, the suggestion I made in the pm to Pania might be worth a shot to save some of this removal cost.

    Hang on in there lady!!

    Hi MOT and twins, hope you are all ok x

    Just wanted to add my little comment for Viktory. I read your comments and although I appreciate you have your opinion and I agree that in most stressful situations we do tend to find someone to blame (in this case the council), I still believe that the systems DID fail MOT and her children, as they continue to fail people on a daily basis.
    MOT should not be judged for not perhaps being 'ruthless' enough or 'fitting into a category' in order that she should receive what every mother wants, and that is simply a home.

    I do not know anyone on this thread (that I know of) and MOT is a complete stranger to me, but I choose to support her because like me she is a mother, and I can empathise her worries for her children's needs, and I have also suffered from depression, so know the depths and debts it can lead to.
    As far a 'fan club' goes this is definately not one I would choose to subscribe to, but I do choose to help someone in need.
    MOT has never asked for support or help, and this is to her credit but perhaps her story may prove that more needs to be done for everyone in her situation, and if this were to happen how much of a difference would MOT have made.

    I am very proud of those people who have offered more direct support (you know who you are, SF, IT, Pania etc) as we could have been reading a completely different story without it.

    sasp xx
