    Evening everyone, I thought I'd poke my head in :).

    Well done on getting debt free lilmiss, it must feel great, and well done on selling your phone Amy :). Fingers crossed you get a call soon Mabel, hopefully telling you you've sold loads.

    I really like 206's but I'm stuck with what I've got at the moment, I'll probably keep my car til it dies. If petrol prices keep going the way they are I might not bother replacing it, though I'll probably miss it if that hapens. I have a bit of good news, I sold soem jewellery yesterday giving me £7.75 after fees & postage, and even better I got a call earlier telling me that I've got an interview for the job I really wanted. I'm not getting my hopes up yet, but it would be great if I get it.

    Thanks :), it isn't for a few weeks so I have lots of time to prepare! It would be very convenient to get it though because it would start around the same time my temp work ends.
