Skylar

You are being incredibly unpleasant. Please leave the thread if it is annoying you so much.

King
I'm sorry you are having a hard time of it at the moment. There are a number of useful suggestions on the thread posted earlier by helpful mumsnetters.

I hope your fortune changes soon.

2girls2dogs Grin, yes I know. I just couldn't think of anything more eloquent that would sum it up as concicely. I am a quite juvenile personality though.

PineappleBed · 14/09/2012 20:52

Hmmm maybe I'll just visit skylar's thread as it's clearly about something important...

...oh yes it's skylark slagging other people off what a massive shock.

OP sorry you're having a crap day! Poor you I hate it when it all happens at once!

BobblyOrangeGoldGussets · 14/09/2012 20:52

That was my next comment/question EnjoyGoldresponsibly. If that is the case, she has no room to be piss taking has she? Poor little "Skylar" Grin.

MNhoneydragonHQ · 14/09/2012 21:13

I notice she skipped the Peace and Love and we t straight to the Ahem though.

BobblyOrangeGoldGussets · 14/09/2012 21:32

Kingcryolophosaurus · 14/09/2012 21:53

Bloody hell!
All kicked off here
I was only cleaning up a pint of cream, spilt fucking everywhere

Sorry if I've offended anyone with real problems

I do have real problems too, other than the material ones, if that makes you feel better Skylaaarrrr.

ILiveInAPineapple · 14/09/2012 22:00

Those are real problems! Sometimes it's a whole host of little things that amount to just be too much.

Sending you my sympathies op, I hope things get better soon.

And I don't know why I continue to be shocked at other people's capacity for nastiness and unpleasantness. It saddens me that there are some people who can't be happy unless they are trying to upset other people.

MNhoneydragonHQ · 14/09/2012 22:00

I'm all paranoidaloid now. Am I in trouble? Sad

BobblyOrangeGoldGussets · 14/09/2012 22:18

No, we were reminiscing about the "I literally twatted a spider thread". Don't be Sad, we were Grin.

@MNhoneydragonHQ

Fishermans Friend, Olivia?

DO you have a strepsil?

MNhoneydragonHQ · 14/09/2012 22:42

Only Lemon & Gin flavoured ones I'm afraid Wink

Kingcryolophosaurus · 14/09/2012 23:11

The tread on some of the stairs has been wobbly for ages, very old wood.
Got worse, had a look underneath and two of the slats are cracked
Need replacing

I was just having a bit of a moan

OP posts:
HecateHarshPants · 15/09/2012 09:08

And you're entitled to. Don't let one person make you feel you can't! They don't matter. You're allowed to moan about things in your life.

bollockstokarma made a fab post, addressing each issue. Which is always a really useful thing to do.

When you have a load of things going on, you see them as this great big pile of shit. and this and this and this AND this and this...

But by looking at each one individually, you see that it's not so bad and there are things you can do.

Hope you feel a bit better today. xx

Kingcryolophosaurus · 17/09/2012 17:49

I just want to scream
Car still isn't sorted, they've had if for 3 weeks and no one can tell ms anything
Hire car is due to go back
I have to have a car to take DS to school

Washing machine is insured but they cant even come out for 3 weeks!!!

OP posts:
BollocksToKarma · 17/09/2012 18:44

At least your washer is insured! That's something.

Ask of you can hire the car for another 2 weeks, then get on the garages back. Is there someone near you who can take your DS to school until you get your car back?
