    Two PAP, weekends.

    I get more pay on a Sunday, more hours and parking is cheaper so I make quite a bit more out of it. £40 ish for a Sunday, £20ish for a Saturday - I only work an hour and a quarter longer on Sunday :confused:

    Hi all!!!!
    Beauty day for me today-on a whim I popped into a hairdressers and got my hair cut-she cut LOADS off!!!!
    At least a foot-I'm not sure I like it but my hair grows so fast, I'm too worried-I think I look like my mom...euw.

    Then after work I went to salon and had a few bits and pieces done OUCH!

    Although my toenails look lovely :)

    Why do you say that, ZTD, given that what you know of the situation is only what greenwichgirl has told you?

    Because at the time there was only 12 days to go.

    Our legal system is not swift.

    Anyway, several hours and phone calls later they will complete on 18 March. The crazed bint upstairs left me about 10 pages of shredder fodder (sorry meant printed out emails that she had sent me over the course of the day) bleating on about plumbers not yet repointing the wall by the new boiler pipe - which I am quite sure the new people could quite easily take over if I can't manage a day off work etc etc ...

    Amazing misrepresentation here, does posting this c**p here help you believe what you want to believe?

    (Yes crazy woman, some of us don't sit on our !!!!!! all day doing nothing and we actually interact with society and do something).

    I am a professional, self-employed woman (one can't do that without interacting with society) with lots of friends and - by the look of your posts - more commonsense and much less of a drink/debt problem than you have.

    You had already made that abundantly clear. And I absolutely reject the allegation of harrassment.

    Anyway, useful to know now that your completion date is the 18th not the 14th.

    Greenwichgirl appears to have got our solicitor sacked. I think that tomorrow, when I ring his firm and say "Jump" they will reply "How high?"
