Hi again:)
Just got in from college... my god, my head is spinning, I think tiredness stopped me from understanding most of the stuff! :S Will have to read through my notes tomorrow and see if it makes sense then.
Nichelette - glad to hear your first day went alright, and at least it's only temporary. Think of the money
My savings are growing so sooo slowly (but surely!). I'm waiting for £140-ish from various sites - that's money I've withdrawn recently. I also have tons pending, most due in January though. And I still have my wii to sell but i'm scared of selling high value stuff in case it all goes wrong! :S Hopefully I can make another £500 before 2009 and I'll be happy.0
