Oh Verity, what a nightmare. It's incredible that one or two people can make life such a nightmare for everyone else. I think you were right to get the police involved. Hope it is still helping and things aren't as bad now. Well done on neighbourhood watch too.
Hope everyone else is OK. We've had a beautiful day here, and been pottering about by the river this afternoon. My new sofa arrived too, so am feeling quite good about the house. Just need to get the paint brush out to my new skirting boards. But that'll wait until Chris next has the boys.

We have a 14 year old girl living either said of us.... they goto the same school and are in the same class. so have become really good mates.
Anyway to say there are going well and truley off the rails is an understatement.
They have been terroising the street, spitting on car scratching keeys down cars, bing really noisey late at night. (these girls are out on the street until about 11pm even on a school day.
the wake up the kids in the street on a regular basis.
the girl (lindsay) who attached to the worse girl of the 2 has had trouble with family polaying music until 2/3 in the morning. and her little boy is also only 4.
so anyway last suinday evening it all came to ahead when lindsay just lost it and went bloody nuts on the girls, it ended up with on of thegirl grabbing her hair and trying to hit her.
By now John Snr is out int he street in his dressing gowna and puttingin 2 penny worth, while im calling th police. Then half the street is out giving rocks at the parents of the these girls. when the police turned up they have promised to sort it out, which they seem to be doing. Both girls have a curfew and have to be in their own house by 9:30pm, and are not allowed to make any noise on the street.
We have now deciced to set a neighbourhood watch scheme, to which im the co-ordinator. and everyone is keeping an eye on everyone else . its great. I have managed to secure security lighting and extra patrols on the street by the PCSO's and so far so good.
PHEW !

Verity - we need more details than that! Come on, fill us in! Joking aside though, hope it is not too stressful.
Sorry to hear about Sam, hugs to you all. xxx

Hi guys. Happy birthday Staschia then! I know what you mean about time flying, it just seems to go quicker every year!
Hope things continue to be OK with Steve, Lou. Men are such a pain!
Had Sam put to sleep today. It was a sad decision but the right one. Have been cheering myself up by doing some DIY! Had a friend over today and between us we put up a curtain rail. We were well impressed as neither of us had used a drill before! So onwards, I might finally have a house without loads of odd jobs waiting to be done!

hi
it was staschia who was 10 alana was 8 3 weeks ago where does the time go i can still remember it so clearly
sorry to hear about the cat jen
7/10/08 19:52
Things are ok with me and steve - not seen much of him tbh. He left at 5.30am this morning to go to work as he had to get to london, got in at half 4, spent an hour reading his emails, ate his tea and left at 6 to to the football. Lucky him!
So sorry to hear about the cat, its a nightmare when these things drag on and you have t start thinking about the financial aspect. makes you feel guilty as you know that you have to get the medical treatment but the cost is ridiculous.
Whats going on with your neighbours V? Saw your fb status.

Hi guys. Hope everyone is OK. My sister's done Avon a couple of times and I think she's done quite well out of it. Good luck, Gill. Oh, and happy birthday to your oldest! I get the girls mixed, is it Alana?
Lou, your w/end sounds good! How are things with Steve? And what about you, Verity? I keep seeing your status updates on FB, sounds like a lot going on. I hope you are OK and not letting things get on top of you too much. How's the stomach?
Things a bit cr*p here, Sam (cat) not getting any better. I think the vets are sitting on the fence a bit, but I'd rather they were just honest about his chances. I said this to the vet I saw today (I keep having to go back for dressing changes, £15 a go) and she wouldn't be drawn because she didn't do the initial assessment so couldn't see what improvement he'd made. He's made none, which I did tell her. Anyway, it'll all drag on, the cost will go up and up, and then he'll be put down. I can see it now but feel a bit powerless to stop it. Argh.
Kids fine though, and I'm fine, so shouldn't complain too much.

Hello all - well it is officially winter! Had to defrost the car this morning to do the school run!
Had quite a lovely weekend - went up to Northampton to visit some friends on Saturday and had a really nice time. Yesterday we went shopping to Milton Keynes to get Lissy some winter clothes as she has had a huge growth spurt over the summer and nothing fits her! This afternoon my mum is taking her to get some winter boots and a coat.
Hope everyone else had an enjoyable weekend ?
Hope you are feeling better Verity? Gill, I can totally sympathise with your money worries, I have had a few sleepless nights recently over the same thing.
Hows the house coming along Jen? We really need to get a date in the diary to meet up. Half term is coming up.....?
5/10/08 21:04
Hi guys. Hope everyone's had a good weekend. It's been pouring with rain here all day. The weekends go too quick!

Hi all.
Well stomach is feeling bit better today. actually managed to eat this morning.
DH is being a complete arse today... because he has a 'headache' well boo bloody hoo.
GRRRRRRRRRRR.
He has gone out and me and jonny going to have cuddle on the sofa and watch happy feet together and then maybe even chicken little.
hope everyone else has a great weekend .

Hi Gill, sorry you've had a cr*p time financially. Money worries are so stressful, I'm just not thinking about my CTC situation. Which of course isn't helping, but at least I'm not stressing about it! Hope things get a bit better soon. Just do a repayment plan of £5 per month or something. They have to accept it.
Hope your stomach ulcer is easing up, Verity. I don't know much about them, are you taking something for it? Can you eat?
Hugs to you both. And Lou. Hope Steve is behaving. If not, send him round, I'll sort him out! (or bury him under my lists of DIY that need doing. See, husbands do have their uses!)

Hi gill. good to see you with us again.
What about mystery shopping...... I work for 2 agencies... and they are Bare International and Grass Root Mystery Shopping.
I do about 4 jobs each month varying from £10 each to £70.
but this is not a regular income... but helps with the bills and you get paid to shop. what could be better.
2/10/08 23:02
hi all
no you haven't bored me or scared me off sorry just having a stressful time as are all of you by the sounds of it
housing benefit has screwed up lol again leaving me with an over payment bill of £1300 and council tax adjustment of £500 just cos they messed up and also pay £200 less towards my rent so trying to find a job i can do at home so not to intefere with my other commitments but doesn't seem to be anything out there
alana was sick last week a bug going around
other than that i'm ok
hope you are all ok we really need to get together sometime
2/10/08 20:23
No worries, Lou, I'm really pleased you've got something going on to keep you busy. The following Sat is the 11th, right? If so, Alex has a party I think 12.30 to 1.30 (groan) but maybe we could do something afternoon time? Actually, I have a new sofa arriving before 2 so am housebound till then. Best finish painting!
2/10/08 18:44
Ah Jen thats a great idea but I am off to visit a friend in Northants for the day. Can do the following sat though....? Saw your status on FB, has Sam left us? So sorry if so - poor little pussy. xx
Think we have def scared the others off!
2/10/08 18:02
well, life is s***, isn't it? (sorry bounty, go ahead and take my capital letters, i don't care).
maybe we have scared gill away with all our doom! and emily for that matter. maybe they think it is catching.
right, you see what sort of mood i am in today. more bad news from the vet. and more bills piling up.
so, verity, i'm really sorry about your ulcer. i wish there were something i can do, but obviously there isn't so i'll just say please feel free to moan and rant and we'll be here as a friendly ear.
lou, maybe i can offer you a bit more practical help? what are you doing saturday? i have no plans. would you like to bring the girls over for the day? you can stay for lunch and tea if you like, feeding the kids is always a stress. it might do both you and steve good to have a day away from each other, and it is always easier to cope in the company of other people with kids. just a thought, if the distraction would be a help then let me know, but i won't be offended if you think the day will be better spend in other ways! (doing family stuff with steve?)
hugs all round today, we all need it!

Wow verity what a nightmare. Glad you are in charge of things though, and well done for involving the police - lots of people would not have done, but it definitely needed it.
Cant wait to see your house Jen, when are you free during half term?
Lol at Gill sleping through the windows being smashed! I would be just the same!
We are all well, been for a lovely walk this morning and just pottering around house now. I am very proud of myself as I have lost 12lb in 6 weeks! Only 2lb to get my first stone off! I am DETERMINED to get it this week, as I am off to London for a hen weekend on Friday and will probably put half of it back on! If I have reached my stone before then it may increase my willpower and stop me going totally mad!
