    Hi Clare ... I played several games of Deal or No Deal and then kept going back to see if it would let me withdraw. I ended up withdrawing odd 30p's and 50p's until I got to about a tenner, it took a while though :o Roulette looked quite easy too,I don't know about the other games though, I'm not really very knowledgable on them sorry :o Hypno may be able to help you further??

    don't ask me......I played through and lost :rotfl:

    will still be in profit if quidco pay out though :o

    Hello all :D I phoned up and the new mortgage balance is now at 51,965 :j :j Last night i put my free bet on but had a little hiccup at the laying bookies, think it'll be okay though but am going to pop over to the gambling board for some advice just to be sure ;)

    So far today I haven't spent any money but I will need to buy petrol later probably :rolleyes: This weekend I need to do my tax return and I am seeing a few friends; other than that it needs to be a chilling / catchi up on sleep kinda weekend ;):D

    Hi Benben - you know, if you've managed to get down to June 2029 by *this* time, I bet you do a lot more than June 2019 in the end. I bet you end up on It Pays To Watch!

    Tigz ... think I am free next saturday if you're around? I have a mystery shop either sat or sun next week, will check and see ;)

    KC ... It does seem to be going well but I'm concerned it could hit a hitch when the fixed rate runs out :rolleyes: but for now I'm pleased with the progress so far :D

    I have spent 20.00 on petrol tonight and 3.23 in tescos.

    Quidco have declined an enquiryIhad for 25.00 :mad: :mad: It was for one of the bookies and I gave them all the info, the date,time, username etc, but they said it couldn't be traced :mad: :mad: Luckily I hadn't included it anywhere in my figures but its still annoying as I did complete the requirements of the offer :confused:

    I had a rubbish nights sleep too,not sure why really ... a friend texted me at 12:30 and then I couldn't get back to sleep and when I did it wasn't a deep sleep.I don't have ds this weekend so maybe I can sneak in a little nap on the sofa later ;)

    I do think you're doing brilliantly, but yes, I don't think any of us can be complacent these days. My mum was an infant school teacher, and we always said "well, she's safe, they always need teachers.... then the birth rate went down, and she actually was made redundant (= grabbed at voluntary redundancy with both hands, she was near retirement age by then!).
