  • OO a cunning plan...death by hamster...mmm, i will send you a carrier, however i do worry about him biting the Chelsea fan, the poor mite might catch something...

    I am a tad better today, had an awful night last night but am croaking around. DS was ill with it last week and has been put on antibiotics for it today so we are all feeling it a bit.

    On the news front, tax disc came and is a very fast service so am chuffed with that.
    Two things on Amazon comes to £10.25 after P+P Amazon have made a bit as well....grr. But it is monies i don't have to find. Am going to do an indoor carboot on the 1st of Nov, and have picked up another mystery shop. All monies will be transferred to 'washing machine fund' as i have coyly named it. I want that cleared before Christmas. Just realised an old 0% card is about to expire, interest not bad but i have a sneaky plan to transfer it around and end up back on the 0% plan with the same company on another card..if that makes sense.
    I also forgot that DD2 has a trip to Paris on the go with the college, so have to put monies aside for that..will it ever end?

    Sniffly Bob x

    Hi Bob,
    hope your feeling better today.
    Had a lovely time walking the Malverns, I'm fitter than I think I got from The British Camp to the Northern most part in 2 hours. Had to hang on to the rocks on Worcester Beacon as sooo windy. Could turn face into the wind and do an impression of a skydiver.
    Filled up with tea and cake ( carrot cake AND choccy, mmmm ) and then went all around and over the hills again to walk it off. 6 hours...knackered!
    :D:D stay wonky :D:D

    ....one-way ticket to Portugal booked !
  • Thanks everyone. Still feel a bit bleuurgh, but am not as bad as i was.

    I am so envious Pepe..did you take the camper van? If i wasn't such a scardey cat i would have liked to do sky diving, even though you were doing an impression of one i bet it felt good.I thought i was the only food obsessed one?

    Nothing much else to report here as am distinctly lacking in energy..so will cheer myself up by catching up with everyone and then have a sleep..after i have planned dinner..

    On the finance side have not figured the best way to transfer stuff around. I have an Amazon/halifax card..nothing on it, but they will only let me BT at 15.9% gits..so if i transfer £550 onto that, then retransfer onto my 0% i will have to calculate BT fees and whether i am saving money by doing it that way. The £550 is at 18% as of this month...I suppose i could just have a go at clearing it altogether, but stuff is tight at the moment. Will have a re look at calculations..another option is to open that account with the interest free overdraft and transfer it onto that then no BT fees..that maybe a better option.
