    I've had a great day today,
    ran a seminar for 45 dentists about infection control, it went really well and they even left me a slice of cake!

    Was it a big sugary cake? Maybe they are touting for business! :rotfl:

    I gave them a choice of cake cos I'm nice!

    lemon
    carrot/passion
    victoria sponge

    I also ordered in a huge fruit salad for the healthy ones....

    guess which one of the above was left over! (loads of it)

    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.

    Hey Lou, how is the bank fraud thingy going, any developments?

    A&L just said that they would send out a replacement Debit card and that I shouldnt worry as it happens quite alot:eek: doesnt look as though I will hear any more about it ......until next time:mad:

    It has really made me paranoid though about using Debit card in future, dont know how they got my details at all:confused:

    I will use cash when I can now....except we are now running out because I cant see me getting chance to go the the bank (12 miles away) to get any cash out. I really dont want to use the CC but may have to yet:mad:
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Hi all,
    Well, absolutely crap sh!te day.
    Didn't get keys-Estate agents says cheque hadnt cleared (!!!!!!) and then made me feel a leper for paying nearly £5000 to him by bloody cheque! Git. *most people do it by bankers craft!* well, why didnt he tell me that when I bloody gave it to him? wuckfit.It took all my self control not to cry-been doing enough of that lately.
    Anyway, then went on to spend £900 on furniture etc for things for the house! !!!!!!! Everything from cling film to duvets....expensive this moving house crap.
    Then work was ok, busy but ok.

    So now I'm at home (well, husbands house?) with so much to do I'm on the computer avoiding it all.

    To top off my wonderful day, Scott took the day off today to help me move house and doesnt have any time off now so I have to try and move myself! Including settees, beds etc.

    *sigh*

Or a man with a white van in the local paper??

    With my last house-moving saga, my motto with Estate Agents has become: "Check, check, and check again..."

    They were useless. They didn't even set up the standing order to the landlord correctly... :rolleyes:
