    I really hope I get through so will have everything crossed.

    I actually think these questions are slightly easier than my last one. I remember last time it was something to do with how many sausage rolls would it take to reach the moon lol.

    Going to work through it tomorrow at work (sshhh don't tell anyone) and get as close to the 153 and perfect grammar as I can and then hope for the best lol

    Afternoon all, not been around much due to 10+ hour days at work all week until today :eek:

    Managed to do a bit of catching up and money moving. Good news for November I've put a fair chunk into various savings accounts. Not sure I'll do so well in December even though trying to be sensible about Christmas. Looking forward to Christmas but little freaked out that its a mere 2 weeks away. Got to buy couple of pressies and sort out food shop.

    Hope all is well. Must soon get off my bottom and do some housework - was going to go shopping but the traffic is mad as there a big Woolies at the retail park near me and people are fighting into it to find bargains :rolleyes:

  • Hi

    No more debt busting today, didn't get any more credit card bills in yet although I'm sure one will drop through the door soon.

    I'm getting rather annoyed and frustrated (thought I would vent here), as most of you probably know from what I've posted before I sell on Ebay as a Business, I always keep an eye on the competition and when they have got new stock that I would be interested in selling I've always been able to find where they have got them from - until now. I've spent 3 days on and off doing internet searches trying to find out where they are getting certain items of clothing from and it's bugging me that I can't find out, I've searched through about 15 Wholesalers that I know of and just can't find them, a few sellers are selling them. I know I don't have any money to buy any more stock at the moment and I don't want to buy any, but I like to know where people are getting things from so I know for when I can start up again - aaaarrrrrrggggghhhhh feel like banging my head on the wall, I hate it.

    Anyway, off to feed the kids now.
