    I reckon its worth the risk nikki-its the right time of year for it-good luck if you go for it :-)
  • MM - I have the same fear of dentists! I hate going... last time was especially traumatic, but I won't go into it! To cut a long story short, my 25-minute appointment lasted for over 1.5 hours and I paid £180 (or something around that figure) for the pleasure :S Is yours just a routine appointment?

    Those are some good bargains you've all got - why is it that I never find anything so cheap in our supermarkets?! I did go to Asda this morn to buy myself three cans of their own brand energy drink, rather than paying £1.15 a can from the cornershop.

    What is dawanda, if you don't mind me asking? :question:

    Mmmmm I love Sweet Chili crisps from Walkers. They are so nice, and Monty (the brown cat) loves them (he is such a weirdo!).

    You're right Mabel, I'm a bit adverse to spending money lately but I think it is a sensible thing to do really. Dentists are evil.... I haven't seen one for nearly three years, I couldn't afford it then I got taken off of the NHS list so I'll probably only see one now if something goes wrong, but I'm obsessive about cleaning my teeth so fingers crossed it won't.

    Dawanda is basically like a European version of etsy (if you know what that is). Basically it's a site for selling handmade stuff, I've been making & selling jewellery for a few years now :).
    Finally bought a home
    Starting mortgage £289,500 31.01.19 - Current outstanding £192,586.98/CENTER]
    Overpayments since 27.03.19: £52,407.47

    Thanks for explaining, though I wish I hadn't asked now - there's so much pretty stuff for sale on there. I'm tempted by a bracelet... or five! :o:D
