    Cherry if you go to thread tools at the top of your diary and select printable version then it should cut out most of the stuff you don't want.

    That will make it quicker for you to copy and paste it.

    Done it - thank you! :)

    Glad you got sorted Cherry. I can't back up mine so can't help :o

    I just keep the things I need with a pen and paper now.

    Morning,

    What a rubbish morning. Just going to potter about and clean I think.

    Council tax seem to have sent the arrears back over to enforcement even though I haven't broken the agreement. :cool: Joyful. More stress and worry.

    Really fed up of everything :o as you can probably tell.

    Grrr - hopefully just an error as has been suggested. Fingers crossed on that.

    This situation with the diaries is getting ludicrous., Starting to feel we should open up a "DFW Exiles" forum all of our own and only invite people we actually know! :mad:

    The phone person seems to think it's because it's starting a new year :cool: Still confused though. I need to hope they will accept a payment plan again now :cool: and it means more fees I think! :(

    :rotfl: EH I think we should! I've never known it to be such a problem here though and I've been around for nearly 7 years :o and still not out of debt :rotfl:

    It is crazy - and if it carries on, as I said yesterday it will kill the diaries board. I confess I'm feeling reluctant to post on my diary right now as if this problem IS coming from malicious behaviour I don't want to bring it to anyone's attention if you get what I mean! :o

    Ahh the new year thing might make sense I guess - they review everything and then those that are within agreements get put back in to the "OK" pile again perhaps. Absolutely it shouldn't mean new fees unless the old payment plan was limited on timescales? Worth checking paperwork maybe.

    And you've just reminded me that I'll need to stash aside this month's CT money when we get paid. Hurrah!

    It does sound like a rubbish morning :(. Hopefully everything will slide back into place as you're abiding by the agreement.

    I notice you're back on your feet and cleaning... go you! That must take some doing so don't push yourself too hard.

    Fingers crossed! I have sent a new SOA and bank statements etc.

    Don't worry Cherry there isn't much cleaning going on. Just bits to make it feel clean again :o I;m sure once I've faced Thursday's appointment I'll be back to totally wiped out and no 'life' in me until next week.
