Hi. :)

Once again the old thread was getting very long, which apparently can put unnecessary load on the forum/servers.

So here we go with a fresh thread.

This is a thread for all you impatient people out there-whether it's a debt you want to pay off quickly or something you want to save up for but can't possibly wait another minute for!

Theres not a specific challenge, just pop in and have a chat about what you are doing to make that extra cash, put your target in your sig and hopefully we can help each other to get where we want to be NOW!!

    anyhoo-trying to remeber what people posted in the last one! Well done on your bouncy castle hiring Stacy, hope your payment card comes in time lilmiss. Hope your photos went ok Nicki-it took me 10 hours on Saturday to do mine, the lights that came with the light box were carp so I have a lot of photoshop to do still :-( Still they are 100% better than the old ones anyway!

    I am hoping it comes too!

    Well done on doing your jewelery, I have done nothing that could make me any money this weekend apart from free scratchies!

    Afternoon everyone, I made the mistake of going to the pub and getting slightly drunk last night which wasn't my intention at all. I'm quite annoyed as I've only been awake about half an hour so I've wasted a big chunk of the day :(. At least it was cheap.

    Anyway, I've had £52 switch to payable on topcashback so that's another chunk off the overdraft which is great. Unfortunately it was so overcast and rainy here yesterday taking decent photos was a bit hard, so I made some more jewellery instead, there's one necklace which I particularly like. Am hoping I can take some today as the light is much better, but to be honest I haven't actually slept much so I kinda want to fall asleep again :o.

    I hope you all have a nice day.

    The weather has been lovely here and we've been to a bbq which was nice. Need to get some bits on Ebay tonight and start working out a money making plan for the next bits to get done.

    Morning everyone, I guess you're all back to work today. I'm going to Luton to see my friend so I won't be around much either. I only took a photo of one necklace yesterday because I took ages experimenting, but now I know how to create a passable photo it should be much quicker with the next ones. I hope you all have a niceday :).

    Hi everyone,
    Hope you all had good weekends. I was up north seeing my family who live by the lake district. Was nice to see everyone but tiring driving up there and back.

    Good news is I have now got a laptop, got it yesterday, does add to my debt with my dad again but will be putting it to some moneymaking use.
