    Hi all

    A bank transfer will usually take 3 working days, one to leave a bank, one in transit, and one to arrive in your bank. Here's hoping for friday or earlier.

    Jen and Aussie I use a comp site that sections all the comps up in different categories, and also has a section for comps ending today, tomorrow etc etc, and also for comps just arrived so there should be a category to suit everyone.
    It's ukcompetitions.com

    Managed a nsd yesterday, but wont today as meeting friends for lunch. Am off to check ebay and back etc.

    Morning!

    Awww Jen hope you feel better today, probably best to take the day off and just chill and have some cat naps. :o

    Yey, quidco has marked as paid. Hopefully it will arrive on Friday, then thats another £80 i can take off my credit card this month. :j

    This week seems to be going so quickly, im not complaining - going to see The Dark Knight on Friday. :D And dinner at Pizza Express, thanks to £20 voucher i was given.

    Right off to do my scratch cards and Pigsback and check One Poll and Light Speed Panel. ;)

    Sounds like a good plan Jen. xx

    Well im a bit down now. I am still struggling with the council regarding my balcony. Ages ago downstairs (they own their flat) had a leak and it was traced from my balcony. The council decided it was down to me having about 6 screw fixing holes into the felt. I dont believe its purely down to me and neither do my bosses (they are surveyors). For the past 6 months I have been trying to explain this to the council, they wont listen and have hit me with a bill for £3,400.17.

    This has been going on for months now, and im just getting so annoyed with it.

    My boss has told me to sort of accept defeat and agree to pay for works to patch up the holes on the balcony. He said it shouldnt be more than £500 max. Thats not too bad, but im trying to write the letter and i just cant seem to do it, and i know they arent going to listen and are probably going to take me to court. :(

    sorry guys
