    hi.
    diamond...i really hope you get the flat, you really deserve some good luck.ds just got rid of his bad cough.dr gave him cough meds but no improvement in a week so he gave him some white horrid liquid antibiotic and that seemed to do the trick so, although i know you shouldnt have antibiotics for cough, it was prob an infaction that the cough was masking, iykwim.may be worth asking ??...landlord prob thinks you are lovely and will look after his property cos he might get a right one in for higher rent who trashes the place so a great tenant like you for less money would be better for him in the long run.
    good luck.xx
    sorry if my post goes strange as im listening to the radio at the same time and sometimes it makes you write what you are listening, iykwim:)so the spelling may go weird.am listening to local radio as they have gone to wembly 2day so am trying to keep up.
    quidco have made a/c inactive cos they say ive been daily clicking on stuff than i should have only clicked once.was lands end ,it never said that you could only click once....and whiskas, which never paid anyway for any clicks.did clicks for family, doh me:( so were diff addresses....(should thank me for the business, but they say its dosh under false pretenses:( )....i apologised and said it was completely accidental and no deliberate fraud.they said on the quidco thread that they had been very harsh not to warn me first.id have stopped asap if they had said.....never been dishonest before or malicious with intent, iykwim.i cant even log on to cancel my bank details and that wat worries me most.they may change their mind so i have to wait.it was getting abit of a chore anyway for 10p a day so its a small loss ,i suppose...just hate the injustice.you live and learn.theres lots on this site who go out of their way to get round quidco for as much dosh as they can deliberately and they never get caught....and mine was completely innocent and accidental and they have hauled me up.
    rbk....was lovely about the deposit from the charity.i presume you live in london or near there cos of the cost of renting.i dont know how you afford to live down there, its so expensive.....wished i was still living at home,if i knew then ,what i know now, id never have left, but i understand about wanting your own style and space and independence.good luck.xx
    hi to everyone.hope you have a good day.quidco has made me feel strange, like a crim so its put a downer on me.if they let me back, i think ill pack it in anyway, too much hassle and mud sticks, iykwim.put me right off, tbh.
    kept you long enough,
    love ilgd xx
    People bring great joy into our lives..some by arriving, others by leaving.im trying to be one of the former, so please bear with :)

    LOVE ME, LOVE MY NEWFOUNDLAND.:A

    Hi guys!:hello:
    Hoping everyone is safe and sound.
    Well, we've got about an inch and a bit of snow covering everything this morning - clear blue skies and it's so pretty. The pavements are clear too so everywhere looks lovely.snow2.gif I had to laugh this morning as I looked out of my kitchen window: a starling swooped in on a flight path to land on my snow-topped fence, missed its grip and went into a bush!laughing-smiley-014.gif I shouldn't laugh really - when I was but a young Tiffster, I had more than one Saturday night end like that! beer2.gifbiggrin.gif

    Ahem - and moving swiftly on blush2.gif...time for some Tiff-bits methinks...

    steph, shaz, diamond, katie (and anyone else) - sorry to hear you've all been poorly this week guys and I hope you're all well onto the road to recovery from sharing those nasty germy things. However, if you hadn't been kissing and hugging each other so much, you wouldn't be in this predicament!biggrin.gif Get well soon guys.sLo_hug2.gif
    katie - hey - you stay away from the gee-gees missy!tapping.gif I can see certain people's influences at work here. So that'll be 12 'Hail Mary's' and a week in Bognor for you as penance! Well done on your piccies with your new camera and on your pottery, angel!action-smiley-033.gif You're a multi-talented tulip.sLo_hug2.gif

    steph - loving the new car hunnie - I'll be able to arrive at the vets in style from now on! Hope you enjoyed your break stephi! Take care angel.sLo_hug2.gif

    shaz - and well done you on joining the local depression support group. I'm really proud of you, hun! action-smiley-033.gif It's not the easiest thing to do but I'm sure you'll benefit from it. I can see an improvement in you angel, evident by the way you are looking at different ways to fill your days. I know you've got a lot on your plate with the boys shaz, but you're doing a great job.sLo_hug2.gif

    rbk, fg, juno, santas, sf - it's great to see you guys posting again!action-smiley-033.gif Seems some of you have been away for quite a while - but you're never forgotten guys...names are still on the register.wink.gif

    cc - good luck with the move hun - I hope all goes well. Just take some deep breaths and count to 400 when it all gets too much.sLo_hug2.gif


    It does seem as if some of our usual suspects are missing in action, as it were. So a big shout out to our ethel, gem, bmf, cb2, horace, the stenmeister (gario), dawny, rose, miro, meyore and blinky. sSig_missyou.gif Just stick your head round the door guys and say hi - or you could just send me a cheque...:shhh: - just to let us know how you are. Thinking of you all - and in a good way too.sLo_hug2.gif
    And where's that sazzy gone now?! She's off like a ferret down a rabbit hole the minute your back is turned!rolleyes.gif Hope you're well sweetie.sLo_hug2.gif
    I haven't had many gilly-badgie, ilgd or qb sightings either.hmmm.gif

    For those of you who are just getting up and reading this...

    You know who you are!hide.gif

    Right, Tiffy has a few jobs to take care of - including some post reading - so I'm just going to have a quick lie down to get myself organized.rolleyes.gif Well that's my story and I'm sticking to it!sFun_mornincoffee.gif:D Hope to return later.wink.gif

    Hoping today will be good to us all, guys. Be kind to yourself.sLo_hug2.gif
    Much Love,

    Hi martyn!:hello:
    I haven't 'spoken' with you before hunnie, but I was concerned about your post...

    Where's a sad-faced weeping smilie when you need one??

    Here's a weeping smiley for you to cut and paste hun - but only on the condition that you use it on the thread to let us know how things are... cry2.gif ..And only if you remember that the weeping smiley face is only ever a temporary state (though we all know it doesn't feel like it at the time). There's a lot of support available from the wonderful guys on this thread.:T

    You've reached out from Dorset hun & you're not so alone anymore - you've got a lot of virtual friends from across the UK here, hunnie.;)

    Post as little or as much as you want to, but if you need some help, just shout out and someone will reply on the thread as soon as they can. There's usually someone passing through.:A


    If there's anything I or anyone can do to help hun, just shout out ok? There's always an answer of some kind to every practical problem and there's a wealth of information on resources to help you here on the thread. You'd be surprsed at just what situations can be turned around. I can pretty much guarantee that you'll find that we can relate to what you're going through - there's nothing that's not been seen before, angel.;)
    Sorry for the long post martyn, but I wanted to let you know that we're here whenever you might need us and that you're most welcome here. Take care, hun.sLo_hug2.gif
    Much Love,
    Tiff xxx

    Morning All,
    Hope your all good and well. Thanks everyone. I still havent heard from landlord. Im getting a bit worried now. His tenants that left a few days ago actually broke stuff and left in a mess.They also lefta lot of unpaid bills and now they have moved abroad.
    Its full of snow down here in my part of London.DS wants to go in the garden but its full of broken glass and other dangerous things so I wont let him plus his cough is still bad.He is hardly eating which upsets me but I suppose even when an adult is ill, you dont feel like eating.Will do him some soup for lunch.
    I havent got anything planned today. I will be doing lots of house work as that will keep me busy.Anyway guys Im going to love you all and leave you all for a little bit, have a little wonder on the forums and then get on with house work.Then I will be back.Im going to try and stay positive and hope I hear good news from the landlord.If I dont hear from him then I cant really do much.I sent him email yesterday and have sent him a txt this morning.Atleast I know I have shown interest.
    Take care all and have a lovely day.
    Chat soon
    Hugs,love and kisses to you all
