Indeed, I wish they'd just let us have the whole old DS back with no alterations at all

So does the rest of DS but sadly I don't think it's going to happen. Meh.

Forgot to add that I've made a private fb group for this thread. Have added you, Mrs T & Eug so far

Ah, so we can chat on that instead eh! Cunning plan Baldrick

Indeedy we can and it keeps us all together. Obv I want the others to be there too if they want to join too

I'm friends with Sonia and Eug' already, can I join?

Hmm, nice pussy

I'm doing my best to get used to this format but it's really not doing it for me, it's improving like. It's the brightness that is driving me mad

Eugene, let Jelly know who I am on FB will you

It is far too bright Mrs T....THey need a soft background colour and the type to be darker. In fact.............old DS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love our forum but it just hurts my eyes, I've tried toning down my lappy but it just distorts the font even more for me.......I feel so sad about it.

One of the piers at Blackpool is knackered with the storm Twass I will know on Monday if my mortgage transfer has been agreed, fingers crossed. My brain is done in

Done

I can tolerate the forum a lot more than I could earlier on in the week. But I still wish they'd return to the old forum.

Course you can, Eug should be able to invite you

Agreed. I'm sorta used to it but every now and then the extreme whiteness hits again =\

Twenty quid!

What about it?

Per person invited to group

I've added him.

Yeah that's what I'm charging haha

Cool

Cheque's in the post

Ta. I'm waiting on another cheque in the post too but it hasn't come yet

Royalties from your book?

Life and Times of a Television Celebrity?

Sadly not

It was from selling some DVDs & a couple of books

not for your mob, getting tae the nxt round of the cup..............

Any requests for Monday can you PM me or send me a message on my Facebook.

I'm not on here as often as I used to be, don't want to miss them.

And no, for the last time, I will not go jump off a bridge!

Gah gah gah grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I should learn not to tell people I can lend them money or that I got money extra. The money I got from my wages and my working tax credits and my christmas present is vanishing fast. I am not exactly struggling right now but I was going to use my money to buy a PS3 for just over £100 no chance now.

I hate people putting their hands out. I know my particular family member is a little tight on money but I have already lent/gave them £40, (I sort of suggested gifting some money for shopping then changed it to lend but they still thought it was gifted) bought the Christmas Turkey for £20 lent another £30 gave £50 as an early Christmas present to another relative (which I was happy to do but wish I offered less in all honesty like £30) and now they want to borrow money again for food shopping. I wouldn't mind so much but they smoke and spend money on that and they already owe me £150 from earlier in the year.

I'm not rich. I only get paid NMW for 16 hours and get that doubled by working tax but I still have to pay half of council tax and rent as well from it. Plus bus fare to get to work as they won't pay me for that.

I'm just gah! I Would like once in my damn life to have money to spend on myself when I get extra.
If I add up all the money I've loaned and all the money I spent out on other people's debts since I left school I would probably have about 5k on me right now. AT LEAST.

And I'm upset too because it feels wrong to say no when this family member is out of work due to a serious illness and on basic rates of pay.

So yes. Of the money I got I have bought myself £50 worth of clothing and games and little extra food treats. The money I lent/gave away that I got amounts to around £150
That just seems wrong

Anyway rant over.

Evening everyone

Hi CB, how's your cat? ------>

I see they've brought some of the old smiles back.



But sadly, not the green grinner
