Candy that definately sounds worthy of a complaint... did you incur any expenses in the process of your application? Preparing a resume? Fuel costs? Some would have even probably paid for childcare to attend their interview... it's not fair at all! However I guess Rory would have a better idea about what to do... I understand why you are fuming!

IK: yeah, I have this personality that will happily get on with a drudgy task until somebody tells me to do it LOL I'll be "good" today unless the heat gets to me. Good to see you've got yourself a ticker piccy... another strong lad there! Red eye is a non-issue. Has Oscar taken to shuffling backwards yet? Niall is moving backwards now which is consistent with what his siblings did at this age (I can compare on the calendars I kept for them all)... it's just a slithering backwards movement that often takes him under the blankets... gotta watch out he doesn't smother.

Simone: sending you those lists soon. ETA: sorry I missed your last post... catching up now.... (read it now) You've just described my house too! No doubt Verity has left her wet towels on her bathroom floor too. And I can understand about the shame of being in financial dire straits... happens to us periodically... we max out our credit card with verity's school fees and have to live on next-to-nothing until DH gets some kind of bonus or something else miraculous happens LOL We've come pretty close to asking for help too but managed to scrape through somehow... actually things are pretty tight now but at least we know that DH will definately be getting a healthy bonus in November... but if something unexpected were to happen eg to the car we'd be stuffed. Anyhow we'll have to be good in the city on Friday and encourage each other not to spend any money unecessarily!

Need to give Wade his egg...
