Hi guys, I could do with a big hug please - not really sure where to start so if this seems like I am rambling alot then I am sorry.
I am having a totally rubbish time of things at the moment. I have recently been told that the house that we are renting is being repossessed as there was a mortgage against the property that has not been paid - whilst this may not be the end of the world as the receiver have to honour our rental contact, there is a whole other realm to this that is probably best not to discuss on an open forum.
We were told by our landlady (who I am related to) that this was all sorted and not to worry about it a couple of months ago so carried on paying rent as normal only to be told yesterday by the receiver that we are now 2 months in arrears and they are gonna take us to court for it.
Also, I work in an office with three other women, one that I get on with like a house on fire, and two others who we have never really got on with (we were 2 separate teams that merged into one and it never really worked). The one that I get on with left today to go off to pastures new, and the other two are taking the opportunity to make my life hell in some kind of wierd 'we have the power now' struggle.
I just want someone to cry to at the moment but my OH has gone away on a camping holiday and isn't back until Monday pm.
I have never really been very good at making friends, as my OH is my best friend, so I dont really have anyone to go to at the moment. I feel really alone at the moment with the prospect of a really long weekend ahead of me and not even being able to go and have a laugh with my mate from work on monday.
Sorry that was so long and muddled, just need to tell someone.

Bex
Right on your doorstep this weekend at Nutwell Court is a two day event run by British Eventing.
Get yourself over there and walk the course.
I will be fence judging tomorrow. Not sure which jump, but I will be in my red Landcruiser. Come over and say hello if you are there. Reg: V*** JDD

A big old AL stylee hug Bex
Its horrible having no one there to take to when you're feeling pants. Go & have some horsey time tomorrow, I always find talking to the Wee Ginger One is very theraputic(s) she just looks at me in such a way as tho to say "Get a grip women!" I hope everything works out for you with the house, such a worry. But as far as work goes...F**K em ! Sorry but witches like that really get my back up. We have a few women in the school office (bimbos!) who would blatently snigger & shut up when you walked into their 'domain' or would totally ignore you..even if you were stood infront of them. Instead of feeling uncomfortable about it, I turned the tables & was horribly nice & cheerful to them, often bellowing my greeting as I walked in so they had no choice but to reply! Stick your chest out, chin up & grin & bear it...most of all don't let the b*st*rds grind you down |

Hi Bex
Hugs for you or as my daughter says 'huggieeee ahhhhhh' that always cheers me up. Re the house situation, i used to work in the repossession department of a big mortgage company, if you haven't done it already speak to your local citizens advice they were usually very helpful and knowledgable when ive dealt with them in the past about buy to let clients.
Hope you get it sorted it must be a huge weight on your mind.

Poor you Bex, but please don't feel sorry for yourself - life can be poo sometimes.
Take time to pamper yourself while OH is away - telly, chocs, take-away, horsey time, hours in the bath - whatever takes your fancy. Then look forward to facing everyone on Monday refreshed, happy and safe in the knowledge that you have probably had a much happier weekend than them.
If they have nothing better to do than give you a bad time, then you should pity them, they are obviously very sad people!!!
Carla, xx.
Edited to add big hugs!!! |

Paul - Nutwell is literally on my doorstep - well - about 1/2 a mile away, so I may well take you up on that offer! If you see a short blonde eyeing your car suspiciously, it may well be me trying work work out if I am brave enough to come over and say hello!!
Thanks Claire - I have been trying the talk, and ignore the atmosphere route - gets a bit old when the wall is more likely to give you a decent response!! And to think they are both approx 60, and more than old enough to be by mothers!! I get the sniggering, and the e-mails going backwards and forwards (they are not clever enough to turn off the incoming e-mail sounds on their computers.) I am not going to let them see that they are having this effect on me! |

Bex If I see a blonde lady looking nervy I shall blow my whistle at you and demand that you clear the course and come over to the car for a packet of crisps - lol.
Do say hello if you are on the course.

As for the old hags in the office HoneyB has it sorted dont let them get to you your better than that just smile sweetly and think to yourself either they'll retire or be dead soon!Sorry but no time for the old brigade whn it comes to office politics - your young you;ve got a life tell them to get one too who knows they might respect you for it.

| Go and help Paul fence judging. Its a brilliant day out. I am the whistle blowing queen and the radio operator extraordinaire. You can man the flags. everyone hates the flags. Don't like that job. Means something is not going quite to plan. Hopefuly not needed too often. So you can be ready to hand him the right flag. Go on go. have fun. If you are reading this now it means you haven't gone. Stop reading this and get in the car and off you go. |

So sorry you are feeling pants
I have been in that situation myself when I first came to England.
Please smile at those old bags and just think of everyone here on AL as your friend and their comments, that should get you through Monday and the rest of the week.
Big hugs from Sabine and Steve |

Office politics into Room 101 presto pronto.
Take a deep breath and rise above it. If that's how they get their kicks, they are to be pitied. Disgraceful really that women of that age are behaving like complete eejits. Obviously very very insecure and that's not your problem. They are expecting you to react, so if you can, don't. Walk away with a smile. What goes around, comes around. |
