We have just booked our BR date for March 10th and our TV goes and crashes :mad: I don't know what the heck to do, if we got another one on credit that is going to look really bad isn't it...... argh these things always happen at the worst times.
Thanks to everyone that posts :T:money:

    Sorry can't help you. But i'm sure it would look bad !
    Everything comes to try you, 3 weeks before BR hubby's car broke down-Dryer and freezer broke too!
    And it feels like its the end of the world. Things will get better

    Thanks everyone.

    My Mum kindly gave us the TV from her bedroom so we are using that now, phew! I wonder what other bad luck I am in store for, I'm sure bad luck follows me around.... I'm in such a depressing mood today I really should start thinking more positive :o
