Penny, it is hard to imagine that so much confusion could be caused on one day, so pleased to know you have located where your money went. I am sure anyone reading this, could not fail to appreciate your anxiety. At least you will still be able to have your little break, that is of course depending on what goes on between now and your departure. Funny how sometimes things turn out. After much pleading by my cousin and our relenting to his needs yesterday, we finally got rid of him and his pain in the a....e staffie at about 10pm, we sat with our horlicks then prepared for bed, much relieved that at least we could get a decent nights sleep, despite losing money we could not afford, on his central heating. Well we could'nt let him freeze to death, could we? It must have been about 12pm when the phone rang, we were both snoring our heads off, a frantic call from cousin, his car had broken down 30 miles away and he was at the back of beyond on a country lane, no breakdown cover and apart from the cheque we had given him, no money. We had to drag ourselves out of bed, jump in the car, (which is a Kia, by the way) and set off to pick him up. Him and his very noisy, active little friend having spent the night wrecking our settee and sitting room much to the annoyance of poor little Dolly, and the lady next door who has complained that she is reporting us about the overnight barking.
Oh! Penny it is so good to get this off my chest to you, we have both bee going through it. I know its lonely living on ones own, but sometimes.....
