They will investigate the complaint I assume? Will have a look in to it.
We are just having our first unmitigated disaster of a bedtime. Not bad, 7 months and this is the first time it has gone properly balls up at bedtime.
He fed, took the whole bottle and seemed like he wanted more. No more bottles made up. So now he is wide awake, screeching in his cot, while a bottle cools. 
He refused to go asleep, instead he sat bolt upright in my arms, hitting me and investigating the headboard behind me.
Feck. I've never had our bedtime routine fail.
BUGGER!

Oh. Okay.
Went back up to him as he had upped the indignant screeching to I'M REALLY FUCKING ANNOYED COME AND RESCUE ME NOW levels!
So I picked him straight up from where he was stuck. He snuggled straight in my arms and closed his eyes . I rocked him gently and patted his bum for 3 minutes. He opened his eyes from time to time, checking I was still there. Touched my face, checking once again, that I am still there! Then he was gone. Put him down, and yep, he's gone.
That was odd. I now have half a bottle sat on the side. D'oh!

I can not believe a new thread.
Firstly.....thank you so much for all the friendship, reassurance and kind words last night. You lot are absolutely fabulous darlings. My self esteem was once again knocked I to oblivion.
I phoned the loan people.
They said I didn't have any previous loans.
I didn't have enough credit cards.
They could see how I was ok because of this.
So I said basically that my good behaviour had gone against me.
Yes.
S I went to my bank.
GOT THE FUCKING LOAN
Why didn't I listen to DH who said to Do that in the first place.
Went to the car place.
Bought a grand c max.
Love IT.
Perfect for me. Mahoosive boot when I don't need the two extra seats which I do occasionally but not all the time.
DH was great this morning, Sadi he would get the finance if I couldn't, he doesn't really do sympathetic but I was so worried he would just think I was crap but he didn't.

Bit late but forgot to say before donna congratulations, got a tad broody reading your news then looked over at S bashing the life out of the surround sound speaker and snapped out of it
sophia that's brilliant news. I too have a very very shit credit rating from being a stupid 19 year old it's reassuring to know it can be recovered! I'm glad your dh was understanding too

Shit bplp :( I agree with detective that the CM has done you a favour, but it may be a while before you appreciate that 
Ash - just read a bit more and I no longer think it'll be a while before you appreciate that. What a bitch. I would definitely complain :(
detective Yesterday I received a pay slip for over a grand from my old employer. I rang them and asked what it was for and was told it was because I had qualified for the full mat pay with them so they still had to pay it to me even though I had left. Surely not, I said, as I left to take up a new job? But she insisted they were right. As much as I would have liked them to be right, I knew they couldn't possibly be so I asked her to check and get back to me. Sure enough, today I get a phone call explaining they were mistaken and could I return the money. I have reached the conclusion that a lot of HR departments don't really know what they are talking about! I knew that was impossible and I know nothing about HR!
Best wishes to J VQ I have my fingers crossed that your current run of bad luck ends now.
for the flat chasing Congratulations.
MIL sounds like a nightmare GT
at the oven ringing you detective
N is in size 4s. We use the kiddiecare ones from morrisons. They're pretty good.

Okay, where was I. Stealing myself for 10 minutes with a massive glass of wine. Mid packing, not even started on M's stuff, ballsed up my spray tan, generally getting a bit stressy. I am meant to be graduating tomorrow, 200 fucking miles away 
Massive congratulations donna - I was momentarily broody too...
BPLP I actually cried reading your post. How fecking awful for you and F. She sounds vile. Complain complain complain. (and give F a big squeezy cuddle from M and me)
Sophia was about to add my sympathies on the loan situ but just read your update - hoorah!
VQ hugs. Lots and lots of hugs!
Chasing my new hair and me are just fine! (minus the above stressyness!) And you have a lovely new home for you and O! Wine all round!!!
Must go and pack....

Madam would have loved to see you in action (oo-er)
