I just smiled and replied "looks like your up £$%$£ creek", want a paddle?

No really I did not say that, in fact I said nothing.

Honestly why are premies unable to accept responsibility?

Just show them your bank statement and tell them that if you lose your contract, it would be of no loss. At the end of the day, the sh*t won't be hitting your fan.
