[ohoh4312]

Hi all

 

D-Day for the AQ today - not getting my hopes up though. Expect they have submitted asking for a stay.

 

I will call the Court tomorrow - god I hope it's not a saga like last time!!

 

Will keep you informed.

 

Lotsa luv

ps it's Brian O'Driscoll - the greatest Rugby player in the world - in case you were wondering

[charleyfarley]

Jo,

 

fingers crossed for you hun;)

 

 

 

ps.that spear tackle by the all-blacks was appalling:eek:

[Leecabs]

Everything crossed for you to

[ohoh4312]

Hi all

 

Well.........................

 

No paperwork from the defendant has been logged on my file as of 10 am this morning.

 

File going to the Judge tomorrow - the Court clerk says it is "highly unlikely" that the Judge will order a stay if Abbeys' AQ has not been received.

 

The clerk is going to call me later this afternoon to confirm if AQ definately not received.

 

Not celebrating yet - as we all know it can still go Pete Tong even after the deadline, but here's hoping!!

Praying that your case will slip through their net!

[ICY]

I hope this is right Jo as i have 2 judgements i am waiting to her back from

[ohoh4312]

I hope so too, hun!!!!!!

 

Well thats the info I got from the Court this morning, so we will have to wait and see. I really think it is down to individual Judges as to what happens; to be honest I wish they were ALL singing from the same hymn sheet. At least that would put paid to the current "lottery" system with claims around the country.

 

I will update when I know more - everything crossed for you on those judgements.

 

Jo xx

[Leecabs]

Oh I dont know a lottery is better than a country wide stay!!

 

We are going to have a long wait if we all get stayed anyone heard of when the test case is due to start??

[ohoh4312]

Hi all

 

Lee, I actually meant that I hoped the Judges would have seen sense and processed all claims already in the system before the announcement. But no such luck - I sincerely believe that there will be a blanket stay announced very soon, as indicated below.

 

Anyway, update is..........no update! No phone call from the Court clerk this afternoon, and I tried to call about 3:50 but couldn't get through. But who cares - chances are that even with no AQ the case will be pending indefinately.

 

I have read this a couple of times today, on Orders received by claimants:

 

The action will be stayed until 28 days after publication of the decision in the OFT V Abbey National test case filed in the High Court on 27 July 2007 to reduce the need and/or amount of litigation in these types of cases.

 

28 days after the decision?????????? OMG I could be drawing my old-age pension by then. And this is being ordered even in cases where the Defendant has failed to comply with directions.

 

I can't decide whether to think along the lines of:

 

I wish I had done this sooner, or

 

I wish I hadn't bothered, and saved myself £350 and a lot of hassle.

 

Trying, really trying, to stay positive, but my will to do this is deteriorating rapidly.

 

Oh well, 24 days till the start of the "Real" World Cup - at least that is something good for me to look forward to!!!!

 

Lotsa luv

I understand exactly what you are saying Jo and TBH i am feeling the same myself, but there is nothing we can do if the judges wont allow the cases to proceed then thats put a halt on that, but we need to stay strong, it will happen just not for a while yet.

The money will come eventually i am sure of this

[charleyfarley]

Trying, really trying, to stay positive, but my will to do this is deteriorating rapidly

 

keep smiling hun, despite all the grief..........................it upsets Abbey:)

 

just think how much fun you'd have missed out on if you'd not been on here ,

[Leecabs]

It seems most people are gonna forget about all this till the OFT ruling the forums are getting quieter and quieter

 

Chin up im sure we should get something if not all of it back, but cant help thinking this case is to big for even the high court!

[ICY]

Not be quieter from me, in fact more like the opposite as have more time to sit an wait till the end of the TC

[ohoh4312]

Hi Lee

 

Yes, thats what I was thinking too.

 

Trouble is, if we stop campaigning the banks will perceive a moral victory.

 

It is hard to keep going - it feels like we've all taken a major body blow.

 

The £350 I have shelled out so far would have covered crimbo pressies for the boys, and more; now I have got to find that money again, as we all have. That's what is really peeing me off.

 

But I shall stick with it. At least I can keep using my smileys then!! Did you get the PM re them, by the way?

 

Lotsa luv

 

Jo xx

 

[Leecabs]

Yeah thanks but work wont let me access them

 

My costs are now at £385, but had some good news off Gary H if the judge orders my CPR-18 Request they have to answer it even if they put a stay on it after! So hopes are up again!

 

Cant believe it will take til February 20th 2008 for a ruling!

 

Still we can just keep helping confused people

[ohoh4312]

Hi All

 

Still no news from the Court! I have been ringing all day, but there is either no answer, or it's engaged. Guess they are inundated with people like me!

 

So I have sent an email to the Court, asking them to confirm if the defendant filed an AQ, and if a stay has been applied for, or granted by the Judge.

 

Watch this space.........!!

 

Jo xx

[Leecabs]

Is it close by? March down there and demand satisfaction with big angry looking eyes!

 

x Leecabs x

[ohoh4312]

LOL Lee!

 

Yes it is only about 10 minutes walk - I did think about it, but my two slobby children are still in their PJ's and can't be bothered getting dressed!

 

But we have to go out tomorrow morning, so if I have heard nothing then I will be marching in there!! Won't get my knuckle-dusters past the metal detector though!!

 

Oooh - just got a reply - hang fire for a mo.........

[ohoh4312]

Honestly

 

"Your message has been received by the Court and will be dealt with as soon as possible."

 

Sent at 14:46 - I sent mine at 13:26 - at that rate I'll be lucky to get an answer by Monday!

 

So, guess where I will be at 10am tomorrow??

 

Jo xx

[Leecabs]

Thats easy send one of the kids through first then throw it to them before you go through then you can kick ass!

[ohoh4312]

Don't tempt me!!! I'll just make the kids do this till I get an answer:

 

 

Then I'll probably do this when they give me the news:

[Lula]

you are a wicked mother lol, my 3 year old helped me to blitz the bathroom yesterday - he has no one to blame but himself, he has been brainwashed by blooming Barry Scott and so we bought CB, and he sprayed it all in the bath and the basin for me, he thoroughly enjoyed it, a bit too pink for my taste though

[ohoh4312]

Far too pink for me too!!!!

 

Wicked mother? Naah, just wicked sense of humour...comes with having 3 men in the house urrrggggghhhhhh!!!!

 

We do DP - in the little yellow tub - bloomin' marvellous, and not a chemical in sight - nothing to harm my darlings while they are helping me do the housework - OMG if only!!

 

Nite nite - or should I say au revoir, auf wiedersehn, good night!

 

Jo xx

 

[Leecabs]

You too and your chemical addictions tut tut

[deedee1310]

Hey Jo.

 

My lovely shAbbey buddy.

 

Just logging in quickly from sunny Spain (yes my resolve didn´t hold).

 

Just wishing you the best and to keep your chin up. Remember you can complete an N244 asking for the stay to be removed if it comes to that.

 

Have to go. The internet cafe is shutting now! :o
