    Morning everyone. I'm feeling a bit better today which is a relief, but I still can't smell or taste anything. I managed to add another £10 to my ISA today, and with the bonus/double scratches I'm around the £7 mark on two of the cards so hopefully will be able to withdraw soon :).

    Well done on your savings mm, saving is addictive. Hopefully your cheque will arrive soon.

    I think I'm going to make my princes trust application today as I doubt they will try and call over the weekend. I hope everyone has a nice halloween.

    Thanks Jen, I've just submitted it. I really hope it comes off as I'd love to make jewellery as a 'proper' business but I'm too scared I'd mess up the tax/break laws accidently to do it alone. Plus I seem to be unemployable :rotfl: lol.
