Poor you Libby, so sorry to hear that, what a time for the firm to go under. I hope that you find something quickly and that it is better for you.

Muffy, fingers crossed that it wont happen but if it does that it will lead to better things.

Phone has been red hot tonight.... friends from other branches calling. We have had a feeling for a while now that "something" was going on.

15 year old daughter has just told me "you have got to be able to afford a lottery ticket in the first place"!

She may well laugh.... I am sending her down the mines next week"
