Ha ha! I use Youth Dew, have since the 70"s the trick is little and not too often. Had one girl in the office once who also used to use it, but you could smell her coming from 50 paces.

Ah good, a fellow Youth Dew lover! A lot of EL perfumes are quite overpowering I agree though .... one I hate is Estee Lauder White Linen .. you can put that in room 101 along with the others please :-)

It happened 9 years ago one of my brothers was only 2, the other was 7! They seem to be fine, and dont say much when I do talk to them!
I already am on the "council waiting list" since February but they haven't even assessed my application despite my DR writing to them saying I cant be in that house no more as it is affecting me physically and emotionally! Boyfriend he is okay....he's a bloke! ha! he could be better but I guess I wouldnt have him any other way! He has his own problems too xxxxx

Oh love,
You were so young to lose your mum. Tough for all of you, including your dad.
You do have positive stuff as well. Boyfriend, brothers, job, and taking steps to your own place.
You sound very resourceful.
It is horrible when you feel overwhelmed though. Vent away.

It's the people my Dad has been with since that has made life hell! Putting up with bratts who don't go to school, who still from you, attack you, abuse you, but are still perfect in there mother's eyes...then again the mother is just as much of a bully as the rest...they are the people who **** down the dead....in there eyes i am a weakling for crying over my mother! And my Dad just lets it all happen....yet I am the one who has to apologise all the time!! When all I do is give and give....money being one of them things too! I am too nice for my own good! xxx

And they seem soooo naughty.

@NicolaAnne1994
I'd love to see your coworkers faces if you pulled a bag of scratchings out, and munched the lot in front of them! Can I come and watch?

Stop, stop, I am gagging at the thought of that. Mr Pipp loves them. I have to go out when he eats them, the smell, the crunch, the grease and sometimes still have piggy bristle hair attached.

Gonna barf!

Also saving up is a no go! Am with a debt company already...20 years old and in about £2000 debt my own fault though I guess

That is not such a huge amount. No fun paying it back, but it is not as bad as some people your age have, and you have a job. Just hard knowing that your pay is not yours til the debt cleared.

Once it is you will have a bit spare, so how about finding a credit union. You save a small amount with them and after short while are able to borrow with low interest rate.

Got to be an age thing then White linen yes
 
Money problems are grinding.
I got into trouble with a credit card when I had just started working. I needed the car to get to work, but when it broke down, I couldn't pay the repairs without paying on my card. And then something else went wrong with it...

Loved the car, but it really was a clunker, and a money sink.

But I couldn't get to work without it...

Seemed insurmountable, but I ended up chipping away at the debt for what seemed like forever.

Huge relief when it was done though.

Debts should go into 101.

credit union? What's that?
 
Sorry folks, I was distracted by an unexpected visitor last night.

Chicken, moi? Only sometimes. ;)

OK. My first contribution will be those who feel empowered to give advice on anything and everything, including very serious matters, without any apparent experience or expertise. Or, put another way, arrogant, over-confident, over-bearing eejits.
 
And, as I'm on a roll, I'll back that up with those who are certain there is only one way to skin a cat, and that's their way. Isn't it odd that those with the most closed minds often have their mouths in over-drive?

I could go on. :)
 
Oh another people who ring me up trying to sell me PPI....I am 20!

There are also the ones who claim that I have been in a car accident....1) I don't drive and 2) no accident at all lol! Yet they are adamant I have been in one....clever people!! not!
