    Hypno are you my twin?..that's exactly how I feel about the accident business as I have everything under control normally and so much stuff was out of my hands.I'm also not very patient and need to know exactly where I stand...Being a control freak does not extend to my housework either as I use too much time and energy trying to get rid of debts...lol....not as efficiently as you though may I add.

    Taxi, look at your stats - you are FAR more efficient in reducing your debts than I am.....I am not worthy of being in your "virtual" presence :D

    Talking of accidents - it is 1 year yesterday since my accident - are we any further on with the claim......are we heck!!!

    Verbatim......we are needing to make up about £12k......small change, I know, but it still has to be done :o

    Hypno, now your daughter is 14, I hope she has delivered flyers round the neighbourhood advertising herself as a babysitter? My two are itching to be legally employable (in just six days time). Two of their friends are regularly earning good money babysitting and even dogsitting!

    Hi Hypno = glad that Mr Hypno has at least found something and if he enjoys it, it has to be better than being in a job you hate. I know the feeling about trying to stretch everything to fit - DS had a scrape in my car last week - he was doing 2 miles an hour (yes TWO) as he turned into the Physiotherapists and got the car wedged between the iron gate posts - its going to be £1000 to repair and although I have protected no claims the excess is £550 as he is under 21 !!!! He can;t any regular work over the holiday so is brassick as well !!!!

    Ho-hum - Its a whole months wages of my money to pay the excess

    Neither can I control the amount of chocolate that I desire to consume, nor the ability to stick to a budget....

    .....hmm, perhaps not so much of a control freak as I thought......I must work harder at it!!

    Surfbabe.....ouch :eek:

    Evening Hypno.

    God news about hubby accepting the job, I know its a big shortfall but like you said it's better than jobs seekers. Fingers crossed he will get something sorted to make up the difference.
