    Hi All



    I've had some news that has left me gutted, it seems my ExOh, who is claiming benefit is in the process of buying not 1 but 3 properties in the Caribbean, 1 to live in & 2 to let out to provide his income & here's me worrying about how I'm going to pay to have my exhaust on my car repaired!

    Have a good evening.
    Hugs Hester
    This may be a really stupid question but...
    How come, if your ex is on benefits, how the hell can he afford to pay an accountant??????? And why have the fraud guys not sussed this out yet???:confused:

    Hehehe... Somehow I don't think it will keep, either. Not even long enough for you to pack it up and stick it in the post ;):D

    BTW, I've had that problem with ! coming up instead of e-acute. It never used to happen, but it didn't like it the other day when I said I was drinking ros[FONT=Times New Roman, serif][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]é [/FONT][/FONT]wine.

    Hmm, it worked that time...

    Oh you show off Rzl, it used to work for me :(

    I made the usual lemon drizzle recipe, but I added some juice into the mix and then made glac! with the rest.
    Instead of a loaf tin, I used muffin cases. I only had 12 paper cases but really the mix would have made about 14 or I suppose 1 loaf and 6 muffins.
    The muffins rose into little peaks, so it was a bit tricksy to drizzle the lemon juice on, without it spilling over the edges. So next time, 14 muffins and they will leave a space to drizzle and then top with lemon Glac! icing. :drool:

    rosé....what's going on we can have wine but not icing :confused:

    (In all seriousness, I have no idea why it's working for one but not the other :confused: - and why on earth has it just done what it's just done in that quote...)

    It seems my Ex Oh is 'not a priority' they contacted his accountant who assured them that he had a very bitter ex wife who had reported him out of spite. I will ring again on Monday, but I expect I am wasting my time

    Hello there,

    I was feeling lazy yesterday to post. :D Doesn't really sound like me does it. ;) Big plans for today though. While you all are sound asleep I'll be busy as a little bee.

    Annie You may need one of those flattering mirrors. Worked for me. :D
    Haribo Send my condolences to Pink. :p Have a lovely time and spoil her rotten.
    Gin Men. :mad: Don't think I would have cooked the roast. :rolleyes: I think I would have served up Lettuce Soup followed by Tuscan Bean Slop. :D

    Hugs to those feeling sick or down. Hope you all have a good nights sleep. Byeeeeeee
    Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia. ;)

    Hester still ring on Monday .... you never know
    gin - glad hubby turned up safe and sound ..... well until you got hold of him anyway

    today is Grey Hair Be Gone Day so I'm dripping purple stuff all over the keyboard - this colour can only be gotten in Wilkos so I bought their entire stock of two last time I was in and this was the last - hope they hae some more in next month.

    exoh finally phoned dd(11) - told her that he had a flat tyre and me that he had lost his phone - told dd(18) that his mother had been ill - hmmmmmm. Of course as usual dd(11) gave him hell along the lines of "oh hi daddy .... oh that's ok I quite understand ..... did you see dr who last night ....." so that when I told him how upset she'd been and how she'd taken it out on me I am once again the Bitter Twisted Witch of West London.

    Fellow OSers I have a confession to make - I strayed from the Path Of Righteousness that is Twinks Hobnobs and branched out into some inferior biscuits out of a book - I have a pile of mishapen crumby things to show for my efforts - I have learned my lesson and will never stray again.

    hugs to all
