The ultimate incentive to get debt free, can I do it by New Years?

Next Thursday, would be awful nice to keep on getting a cheque everyday between now and then :rolleyes:

My parents are taking me somewhere on Saturday - won't say were or why or even the smallest clue - I have to be up a 6 to go and won't be back till 10. They told me this about a month ago and it's been niggling at me since! I decided they're taking me to London to see Hairspray, mainly because when I suggested that my sister squirmed. But I doubt it!

When is it Cinny? Are you going to celebrate by going out and getting bladdered? Can't imagine it somehow!

*edit* Sorry I type slowly!

That is really nice of your parents to surprise you! It sounds like it will be a great day. I remember when I turned 18, I loved it!!!

haha, I can't imagine it either! OH keeps on saying we should, but it's just not in my nature to do that. I can see myself being a glass of wine and a good book kind of drinker in a few years! I think I'm being taken to bingo by him, my sister wants to take me out for cocktails!

It is nice of them CMD, but I wish they'd just ruddy tell me! Really excited though, all giddy and shakey arms.

Oooh, exciting surprises Cinny! I've never really made a big deal over 'milestone' birthdays, I might make up for it when I have my 30th, although that's too far away to think about, can you make a big deal about your 25th?!

Happy Birthday when it comes Cinny! :j

Think a 25th is a good birthday to celebrate Birdie, it's midway between 21st and 30th (i.e. young and old) - only kidding I'm midway between old and really old but still feel like a youngster sometimes

I think for my 25th I went for a meal and dancing with friends and we felt very old on the dancefloor!! Definitely celebrate it though Birdie! 'Birthdays are good for your health, the more you have, the longer you live' ho ho!

Actually to give my colleague her due, I've just been and made a cup of tea and it tastes not unlike dishwater ... must be a bad batch of teabags!

Had a message from ex, he seems happy enough to meet up during the day, maybe I was over analysing a bit!!

I hope you feel very bad about dissing that poor girls tea-making skills!

Maybe you were over-analysing... but I like to think that he still wants to woo you and will try to convince you to stay late and have 'dinner'! Only because you're fabulous and it is nice to think he still wants you!

I know poor Helen! But being able to make tea is a mandatory requirement in this office!

Haha, thanks Birdie! There'll be no 'woo-ing' if I can help it! Where's our dress?

Birdie85

Oh Christ, forgot about that! I'll try to find one...
