Ooh, don't know about that. Not in the short term I shouldn't think but once he's paying tax he probably will? I don't think it's hard to get one. Wasn't there an Irish girl on this thread a while back giving you this sort of advice?Weightloss: 14.5/65lb0

I work all day Monday while the woman I work in the office with is at college, then I work 5 hours every other day. I'd love to work full time!0 -
My challenge for this year is to make it to the end of the month with as much money as I have on payday - then to bung it in the savings! Wouldn't be able to do this part time, much as I hate my job! This way I should have a really healthy savings account in 2-3 years when I come to buy a house, and the mortgage should be a lot lower. And with the mortgage being a lot lower I should be able to live off my extra income earners and not have to work 'properly', coupled with my good life stuff of meal planning and growing my veg if I'm married and have a kid. Which would be the dream, earning less money but doing the creative stuff for myself, and raising my own bairn while being a proper tradtitional mum and wife etc. So, I have a plan, lets see which part lets me down first, not being able to save enough, not getting a husband, turning out not to be as maternal as I think I am, needing my income to be the breadwinner and having to let my husband live my dream, or missing the 9-5 routine..... place your bets now ladies!Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

God Dinah, for someone who's so positive and gets things done without procrastination, you can be such a pessimist!Weightloss: 14.5/65lb0 -
Lol yeah I've had that said quite a lot! OH keeps trying to pursuade me to go back to being a glass half full person but I bungled that up!Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

Just logged onto Ebay (while at work, I know, I don't deserve to have a job!) to check how things were going for tonights 69 sales that are ending, and it's up to £62.01! Chuffed to bits with that! Might go a little higher too since they still have about 4 hours to go! Given me lots of enthusiasm to list those other items though. Might try to do another 60 Ebay listings by Sunday night. That's not a huge total, but if I go for 100 (which I want) I might fail miserably as I hate ebay! 60 seems not too challenging though.Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

Wish I had a treadmill. Once my cold clears I plan to get back on my bike on the rollers in the garage - dad and brother go on it everyday in there, there is even a tv and dvd player wired up to watch while you ride!Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008
