    Thanks CL :), hopefully they will be quick with mine too

    Ooh, snow. I like it to a point, but when I was in Russia I got sick of it. The novelty wears off after a while when the bottoms of your trousers are consistently wet. The council should at least give you a thermostat Amy, that's awful!

    You get to the take a break scratch card by clicking on play bingo, when you are in the bingo window it's a red box on the left. I deposited and withdrew the £10, I'm not sure if you actually need to add the £10 but I assumed it was the same as butlins so I did anyway. It might be an idea to try first.

    Thanks Nikki. I have just had my sister and mum telling me I should fork out for a new heating system. :eek: I dont think so!!!! So will wait and see what the council decide to do.

    I have one of the worst headaches I have had in ages right now. It must be stress. :o

    I have always wanted to go the Russia. I wanted to teach English :rolleyes:

    Say you're in fuel poverty because you can't control how high it goes or something, it just seems crazy that they have left you in a situation where you are paying a small fortune to heat your flat (and I guess you probably roast when it's on).

    I hope your headache clears, Russia is nice but the taxi drivers are crazy. I went back in Feb 04 when the underground in Moscow was bombed, I'm quite surprised my mum didn't go crazy with worry but she thankfully realised I'd moved on to St Petersberg a couple of days before.

    I've just checked my email & someone has accepted a second chance offer on another locket so that's an extra £8.50 for me. I'm over £50 so I'm trying to decide whether to wait & withdraw or what to do...I might take the £58 I have now & use the other £10 when I get it for a few supplies I need.

    Thanks Nikki xx

    I think i may be coming down with something. I had a headache when i got home last night too, and ended up having a bath, getting all snug in bed at 7.45pm with the cats! :D

    Looks like im going to be on my own first thing tomorrow morning, so i can do all of my banking etc. then. Im really looking forward to getting paid tomorrow, how sad is that! :rotfl:

    Well done on your 2nd chance offer, thats brilliant.

    I am here, was all excited today as got my £15 worth of amazon vouchers from Dooyoo, can't decide what to buy yet for xmas pressies. I have £36 in my Amazon account at minute, waiting on another £15 worth of vouchers though, might save them up for a bit longer.
