    my insomnia comes and goes to be honest. i reckon my biggest problem at the moment is I'm asleep by 7pm, awake at 8 until 10 then out of it until 4-5am. I persevered (i.e. I lay in bed with my eyes closed counting sheep)until 5.45 this morning but my stomach was doing amazing somersaults whilst grumbling so I decided to get up and make a fruit smoothie then do some housework. Only thing is, I'm really tired again now.:confused:

    It sounds like it was a brilliant night out and a standard setter as well.

    Boris that sounds wonderful:T

    A tad expensive though:eek: but it was a special evening for you both.

    Yeah, could have done with putting the money towards debts, but I had it booked for months and did save up for it, so I didn't use a credit card to pay :T , it came straight off the debit card and out of the bank.

    This week is my serious money sorting week though and I will be shuffling credit cards and withdrawing money out of my ISA to pay off a couple of cards. Also going to make sure all cads have a direct debit set up (as not all of them do atm) and I need to call O2 to sort out bill as they keep charging too much, plus I think AOL are charging me too much as well so need to sort them out.....oh and must get the credit back off my Topshop and Mint cards, I keep forgetting to call them (grrrr).

    With the washing machine thing, leave the door open when not in use (is a bit annoying as gets in the way), but the damp air inside goes stale if you keep the door shut which is probably why it smells.....my Mum taught me that :D

    What's everyone planning for Bank Holiday weekend?

    In a way yes! Boyf took me to the theatre and then the Savoy for dinner in our first year of going out and I though that was soooo cool (his mate was Chef at Savoy at the time so we had Al A Carte but with some of the Tasting dishes added for free), but my night blew his out of the water!

    Have told him, it's his turn again next so let's see what he comes up with........ :D
