    Folks, I'm going to sign off for a bit and try to grap a nap (or 40 winks or whatever) I'm just exhausted today and uncoordinated, which really isn't me at all.

    DB - good luck with the test.

    Oo Maz - no pressure intended!

    If paying all of them leaves you skint for a month then don't do it! No point putting yourself in the position to have to use CCs and I know last month was a tough month for you.

    Did you pay for the swimming lessons yet???

    BB - have you commited to going shooting yet?

    Hi all, having a fairly lazy day here.

    Well done Maz on the payments, that's brilliant! :T

    And DB, really feel for you, so many emotions rushing about - whatever the result I hope everything works out well x

    I'm going down to pay for the lessons tonight, and i will consider that a treat for myself....

    erm, plus i am going to get my haircut tonight as well.... So really i am being more than kind to myself!!

    however i am seeking a bargain cut & blow dry for £13 in a salon in Montrose, (further from Aberdeen, so cheaper) my usual cut in Stonehaven was ever rising and is now £25...! which i know is cheap compared to some towns, but expensive for me, especially as my hair is shorter and i seem to get it cut every couple of months now... last cut was just before blackpool so not that long ago, although i only got a trim not a C&B and it still cost me £18...

    The place i'm going to today is where Erin got her free herbal essences haircut for the new school term... they seem nice and it is quite a trendy looking salon, not some granny blue rinse back water hairdresser...... so fingers crossed!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....
