    It makes you really uneasy as I cannot think where I have used my card where it could be a bit dodgy. OH is running a virus check on the comp just incase of spyware but I only tend to use my debit card in shops/cashpoints
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Oh thats another thing, my debit card is cancelled and it will take 10 days to replace it....so no cash for me till then. Luckily OH has some in the bills account but it will mean drawing out some mortgage money and replacing it later in the month, dont need to pay mortgage until 26th.

    I just got paid on Thurday too:mad:

    We have enough cash to cover the meal for tonight.

    oh Louise what a pi$h thing to happen - I hope the ten days was at most and they sort it out quicker. enjoy your meal and try not to worry about it too much.

    Jacs - my dad went for an eye test last year and had to go for extra tests because something showed up as possible glaucoma. Hopefully they are just being cautious with you too (he's fine BTW).
