    Getting a bunch of e-mails and PM's from members of another forum I am on - where I haven't been recently.

    How often do we all find in life ... just one kind word of encouragement from another that tells you it really is good to be alive, no matter how tough the going is at times.
    If many little people, in many little places, do many little things,
    they can change the face of the world.

    Having a day off to myself, after an incredibly busy seven days of working and training. Catching up on lots of things, but still nice to have the place to myself.

    Signing on today and finding out that I have to sign on next week because my New Deal manager will be on holiday after that.

    I think I may have a name for my business - now I need to design a business card and other stationery (saves me paying someone if I can do it myself)

    Hey guys hope you all had a fab weekend.

    Best thing happened to me yesteday. Went back to city to pack up my flat four years of stuff it was kinda of sad. But my lovely falt mate help me pack everything and even lent me her suit cases to take my stuff home.

    It was tough work but it made me happy to know I have done it, that Im committed to getting out of this financial mess and to know there is no going back.

    Today my dad made me laugh so hard I almost cried, he came home from Lidl (he is a gadget manic) with a porta loo.................................:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :eek:
