Your best bet is to get a copy of The Writers and Artists Year Book. That has all the literary agents listed, and what they specialise in. You can usually find it in the library too.

Ok thanks honey will check into it when I get it all together and ready
I tried smash today...bad idea I have never felt so nauseous without getting sick and I only had three spoons..also feel like I've eaten a serving bowl full of it..definitely will not be trying that again.
I've been really tired today and just schleping around in my pjs falling asleep watching tv...didn't get a thing done today at all. Maybe more protein needed.
Tomorrow is my first day of real food...not sure what to have or what to try. Hmmm I fancy prawns but have heard some can't eat them anymore...should I give it a try??

 

[PurpleKylie22]

If I were you then I would try it, Prawns seem like a good thing to eat, no fat, Its fish so I'm assuming plenty of protein? I would just make sure you only have one or two. Take tiny bites and chew really well!
Good luck tomorrow First day of solids is exciting! hehe

 

[VikiB]

I've been trying to add lots of flavour to things...thinking since I can't eat very much I should make food taste as good as possible. So might do some in garlic or ohhh chili prawns with mangtoute yummm...thats it chili prawns is tomorrows tea The protein in prawns is 18 g per 100 g thats pretty good protein wise
I will take it very slowly and chew chew chew. It is very exciting after the last 8 weeks of not quite food lol.

 

[VikiB]

ok I've been shopping. I got some prawns, chili, garlic and ginger as well as some veg for tonights tea It sounds really good and I hope it goes down ok with no problems...will let you know. I walked to the store...mostly because I forgot to put money on my oyster card duh!! oh well it was a nice day for a walk and it felt good Besides that I need to get off my backside and get some exercise anyway lol.

My tea was lovely. I used four prawns, four mangtoute , two baby corns and a spring onions all cut into pieces with chili, ginger and garlic and a splash of soy sauce was heaven on a plate and I had a tiny bit of watermelon afterwards. No nausea no pain nothing just enjoyment of a healthy dinner in a healthy portion. I have enough ingredients left to make it another two times. I'm good today honey thanks. Hope you are ok.
The walk was nice. It was so warm today. And for once nobody gave me the look (you know the one).
lots of love

 

[Tonibones10]

Aaww that's great about you feeling good today, you deserve it, yeah the look can make you feel like giving up (well it does to me) so I'm glad Noone gave it you, ... that dinner sounds lovely huni Xx

Yesterday was a bad day for me emotionally and food wise. First I had a blow out with husband and then called to see about my bidding code for housing only to find out that I am on the tenancy here and will not be given a code unless I make myself homeless by taking my name off the tenancy and then they can't help me because I made myself homeless voluntarily AHHHH!!! stuck stuck stuck I can see why people here become homicidal or suicidal. It's like being caught in a circle. Needless to say was angry most of the day as well as sad and depressed so I emotionally ate (like old days turning to food for comfort) but my new tummy didn't like that at all so I spent most of the day crying in the loo puking. Another lesson learned no emotional eating in future. Today I am trying to sort a new plan.
I'm going to go out in a few minutes as I need to be out of this house for a little while so I can clear my head a bit. I hope you are having a better time than I am right now.
lots of love always

Aw Vick that's horrid predicament you're in, is private rented an option? Not as good I know but if it gets you out.....! X

 

[VikiB]

It looks like that will be the route I'll be taking which will just involve me coming up with around £1500 for the rent deposit and month in advance. So will be working on my plan and sorting it in my head so I can get it going and get out of here asap...only other cheaper option is the undesirable one of returning to America that will be my LAST resort.
Thanks for caring

 

[JO28172]

Been there chick that's why I understand! It will all come good so hang on in there x

 

[Newmelani]

I'm so sorry your in such a bind Viki. I really hope you get things figured out soon. You deserve to be on your own and happy. It sounds like foodwise you are really starting to figure things out. I'm actually getting nervous to have real food... LOL. Sorry I've been so absent. I miss talking to you. Hugs my friend!

When my partner moved out she went to the council they asked if i had been harming her which she said no we get on and we are best of friends still but they said if i was would be emergency then to find her a place but she had 2 young children now im not telling you to lie but bend the truth alittle and ask what if i was in danger could you help me then .

Worth asking the question .


f a relationship breaks down because of domestic violence, we will not rehouse or grant the tenancy of the existing property to the person behaving violently. If the person behaving violently is the tenant, we will take action to evict them for seriously breaking their tenancy agreement.
Joint tenancies

Relationship breakdown

If you have been living with someone as a couple in a stable relationship and that relationship breaks down permanently, we will do all we can to rehouse one or both of you. If we need to rehouse you and your ex-partner, we will expect vacant possession of the house. We will treat your case under the relationship breakdown policy as long as

• You have been in the relationship for at least three years and you have been living together as a couple throughout
• You were in the relationship at the start of the tenancy or in a previous council-owned property for at least three years and you can prove this
• You or your partner are able to provide proof that your relationship has broken down permanently and
• Your relationship has not broken down as a result of any
  form of domestic violence.

A stable relationship is one where either you or your partner or both) were granted the original tenancy, are named on the original tenancy agreement and have been living together as a couple for at least three years either in your current home or in a property we own.
If you have dependent children and the existing property is of an appropriate size, we will encourage the person who is responsible for looking after the children to stay in the original property and we will rehouse the other person.
We will expect the person asking to be rehoused because their relationship has broken down to provide evidence. We will interview the person applying for housing in private, and they can be interviewed by a person of the same sex if they want to. Before we decide to accept their request for rehousing, we will normally interview the other person, unless it appears that the person applying is the victim of domestic violence.
We cannot say how long it will take to rehouse either or both partners in a relationship. This is because there are increasing and competing demands on available accommodation and we must consider the needs of everyone applying for housing according to government legislation and local need.
Everyone applying for housing should consider all of the options open to them to find alternative accommodation.



Or take him off the tenancy and tell him to go.

 

[Yvessa]

Can you stop paying the rent? You could then save that money towards deposit and your husband would have to find his own place.

 

[VikiB]

Thanks everyone. I will not lie and cause him any problems. Though I think he deserves a bit of payback it would bring me to his level and I am better than that. I think a mistake has been made about me being on the tenancy and I am going to go down to the office in the week and see if I can sort it out. I don't actually pay any rent as he gets housing benefit and the tenancy is in his and his ex-wives names she also gets housing benefits. I don't really pay anything except my phone bill and any extras we need between his pay so I am going to start saving (if I manage to straighten out the thing with the tenancy and don't need the money to rent private in the end it will be money I can get stuff for my new flat with).
Don't worry I will sort it all in the end...I will not be defeated.
Much love

[VikiB]

I've been sick all day but think it's just stress. I'm going to get a hot shower in a little bit and go to bed early. I will feel better tomorrow I went out today but was sick the whole time and only stayed out a couple of hours I didn't feel especially well when I went out but he was getting on my last nerve so I went...sometimes you just need to be alone to think things through clearly and get an idea of where to go or what to try next.
Hope you are well today. Is your sore throat gone completely now?
