First boiler! £810+ sorted!
dishwasher broke, dehumidifier broke, gold bangle broke. Bathroom window, internal fixings broke, won't open! All pending to sort when money allows!
Today I step in the shower and puff! it blew up! This IVA is testing me to the limit! Luckily hubby can fit a new shower so we've just got to buy one, the £50 I put away from the car boot last weekend is now going towards a new shower! I'll soon have all new appliances though won't I?
Can't be without my shower though!

Well Lesley at least you always look on the bright side of things..I don't know how you do it.
I couldn't be without my shower either. We don't realise how we'd miss these things if they were taken away eh?

I try and turn all the negatives into a positive although at times I do feel that I could give in but that's not often. I've looked on Argos website and there is an 8.5kw shower for £54.99 so I guess that'll be mine to order! I used to be isthereanend, I think I now need to be pleaseletthisbetheend

Oh Lesley, I'm thinking of you. You've had a bloomin awful time of it. As you say, at least you'll have replaced everything. You do always seem to be so positive, I know it's hard to see the bright side sometimes. Hang in there. Viki X

You poor thing
It rains sometimes it pours and its your turn for a bucket load it seems.
Well I hope things turn a corner for you soon and you are able to look back and say well this happened to me in my IVA and I survived it. Youre a postive person but dont life try to kick it out of you sometimes, eh???
Good luck with the shower, I couldnt do without this either, never used my bath in this house, well once or twice when I have been doing dirty jobs in the garden or house and feel like a scutter. I hope the other things improve with time.
