I feel even worse today than I did yesterday and I didn't have a great night. I hate colds. Oh, my locket sold on ebay last night for £9 but it hasn't been paid for yet. I'm hoping it will be soon as that means I would be able to withdraw a bit over £50 from paypal.
Well done on your sale. Hope they pay soon. xx
Awww sorry to hear you are still not well. I hate colds too, havent had one in ages though *touch wood*

Thanks Amy. Almost everyone I know seems to be ill lately. I've got really strange pressure thing in my nose, it feels like it's bubbling all the time...very odd. I hope I'm better soon, I have a wedding to go to on Saturday.
I'm looking at lots of beads and things I want, it isn't fair! It's amazing how much more careful I am about what I buy now I'm not using my credit card, I think it's mostly because I'm scared of going overdrawn on my overdraft and being charged.Finally bought a homeStarting mortgage £289,500 31.01.19 - Current outstanding £192,586.98/CENTER]Overpayments since 27.03.19: £52,407.470 -

Im exactly the same!! I get worried about buying things now. Its quite funny.
I had a chat with my mum about finances last night and she was really proud of me for getting my credit card so low and getting rid of my loan. When I told her she will have her money back by July next year she was even happier.Its all worth while!

You've done really well to get rid of so much in such a short space of time Amy.
Speaking of drug dealers, there were sniffer dogs at Brighton station this weekend and they caught so many people, I saw about 10 different people in the 15 mins or so I was there. I know there are a lot of drugs in Brighton but I was surprised how many people they caught.
I've just read how many people have complained about the Jonathan Ross & Russell Brand thing, I know they shouldn't really have said it but I think it has been blown way out of proportion. I bet most of the people who complained wouldn't have even know about it if it wasn't splashed about the news so much.Finally bought a homeStarting mortgage £289,500 31.01.19 - Current outstanding £192,586.98/CENTER]Overpayments since 27.03.19: £52,407.470 -

Thanks Nikki (is it Nikki or is it Nicki? I get confused! lol). Im dead chuffed with myself. I knew i could do it, it was just getting the motivation to stop spending and start paying off.
I cant wait until my credit card is gone, then i can relax a tad. And then I can save up for a car, and then a house.And maybe a holiday! :rotfl:
completly agree with the Ross/Brand thing. Its gone OTT now. They apologised etc. all fine but Brand has left BBC now because of it :rolleyes:Debt: just my mortgage0
