The house we've been allocated now has half its garden given over to an Astroturf football pitch full of sweary teenagers - and apparently there's a drug problem too!
Am getting advice from BT on other places to live

{grin] Wonder what they make of the code?

Anyway get back to moving about your move!

I'm still waiting to move into a new refurb, was suppose to go over in April, reckon I will still be in this Quarter this time next year!

Shoshe · 06/06/2008 21:08

LL when DH got his LSGC, on the Parade ground before a Opening show, it fell off, it got kicked across the ground into the crowd and made itself to me

First thing he said when i met him after was that he had lost it, and ouldnt belive I had it!

Yes he really did get one, but only because he has never been caught!

No havn't been married long enough for him to get one from me.

If they dare tell me to do anything to this substandard house, that they are going to completly gut when we move out, you will hear me from there!

(DHE guy is scared of me tho, after I took all 8 mindees down to his office and refused to move until they brought me a cooker that worked one summer holiday, so they brought one on the back of a flatbed truck..........It fell off, back I went to the office..........they brought me a new one, and grovelled )

Shoshe · 06/06/2008 21:26

LL Bet your not!

Shoshe · 06/06/2008 21:31

hf128219 I can match you with two marriages, and raise you with 17 years as a RAF brat

hf128219 · 06/06/2008 21:35

Matching with 2 marriages does not count!!! But the raising me does count - not a Forces brat!!

Shoshe · 06/06/2008 21:39

Bugger thought I had you there

Forces mother as well DS did 8 months before Med Discharge.

Dh at his 21, but up for extension to 24, so we have a few couple of years left before we become civvies.

hf128219 · 06/06/2008 21:50

Hee hee! Civvies - you lucky things! My DH has another 15 to go until retiring at 55.

You make me feel like an old mummy - 4 month old baby and our first!!!
