hoochatootch Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Not to mention, the same phone! Ouch! We'll be getting a new heat pump for the upstairs soon, too, so I feel your pain. As I tell my hubby... you have to spend money to save money! dcdeb tell me about it.... (but at least the guy that did the work sat on our having to pay for a few months - since we got the air handler only 2 weeks earlier than the heat pump!) but why doesn't he feel the same way when i tell him when you buy 3 you can get the 4th one free?!

vickylovesmika Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 HELP! I need your help! Or someone-who-is-in-the-UK's-help. Some of you are staying at the Travelodge in February right? Three other Dutchies and I want to stay there aswell but we don't know which room to book. See, they have 'family' rooms which accomodate 4 people (max. 3 adults). Now what I need to know is, could the 4 of us stay in one of those rooms since one of us is under 18 and technically/legally still a child? Diana !! I have a spare bed in my room! book the family room for 3 and we can sort sometthing out !!! Happy to help out! i have a family room booked too, so far only for me so we have plenty room!

Diana Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I tried that but even if you click on it it only lets you book three people at that particular lodge I am afraid How evil! You would be better to email them - I dont know what age theyclass a child - under 12, 15, 16,or 18. Different places have different rules!! We did email them but it takes 10 days till you get a reply. I tried to phone them from work but it didn't work. Plus phoning English people frightens me.

dcdeb Posted January 11, 2008 Author Share Posted January 11, 2008 My son has decided to leave school at the end of next week - that willcost me £120 a month Don' quite know how I will manage, but I will!! Thats what women do isn't it - we cope!! We do, Wendy -- but it seems you've had more than your share to cope with So how does his leaving school end up costing you money? Because he will move back in with you and need to be provided for? I'm a little confused. You are a little honey - and quite a few of us would have put youin our pockets and taken you home with us!! You will win them over with your lovely nature, just as you did us! xxxxx You are very kind. You were all very easy to be around -- felt like I had known you all my life. Do you realize it's coming up on two months since...? another poster! Yes, the girls going were talking about making something, and I mentioned the DC poster and offered to get one if they wanted, and they wanted! So it's ordered, just waiting for it to come i want to see jack again too! I don't think I told you I had lunch with her last week? She was still visiting her parents for the holidays... we had a great time! Well, at least *I* did! dcdeb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcdeb Posted January 11, 2008 Author Share Posted January 11, 2008 but why doesn't he feel the same way when i tell him when you buy 3 you can get the 4th one free?! That's my other economic principle: The more you buy, the more you save! My 3rd is: Expenses rise to meet income. But I don't like that one nearly as well as the first two! so sorry girls...but i must go and see that fool thread of mine...i'm in front page too! i have a reputation to defend! (btw...who decided for the front page??? deb? ) be back sooooooooon! Oh dear. Have I annoyed Robi? It was AMP's idea!
