Morning one and all how are we today?
It's a lovely sunny day here but soooooooooo cold.
Had a nightmare last night my laptop exploded (literally) and died, it felt like I had lost my right arm lol.
Luckily my wonderful parents came to my rescue and new laptop will be here within the week.
So for now we are all sharing the PC so I may not be about too much so don't think I have forgotton you all.
My doooyooo account is still in tact although have only done 6 reviews.:rotfl:Proud to be dealing with my debts - DFW No: 712

My Dooyoo account is OK, just done another review.
My £50 to A&L has gone out of my bank today, think the next one is Barclaycard which the minimum payment is £168.
Sold another couple of things on Ebay (only small amounts but it all adds up). Going to list some more later, listed 4 or 5 yesterday.Sealed Pot Challenge #0160 -

Wow, that is good, are you in the lead for the paper hat then?
I have to rely on Ebay sales to pay off my debts so am more determined to get lots listed and hopefully sold so I can win that hat.Sealed Pot Challenge #0160 -
And the race is on....
Well done Millie. I'm not expecting to be able to add anything more to my sig until the 1st unless I manage to get some of the money back out of my bongo accounts (joined due to cashback and won some dosh). Just in case any of you are tempted to use a credit card on gambling sites - don't use M&S money - they charged me £3 per transaction :mad: Halifax in the same scenario charged 30p which is what I expected - M&S did this when they owed me £76 as I accidentally overpaid them. Needless to say I will be writing to complain and expect to get that money back! I was trying to protect my main account from Fraud but there we go. I'm hoping to join Sun bongo later in the same way cash back from i....ts.

My dooyoo is seeming OK, I've got miles which are now redeemable and some still pending, so happy. Had visioned that i would sign on and all that reviewing writing had been for nothing!
Might do a couple today now. I had 2 days off to try and average my reviews out a bit more!
And WOW Millie thats a great effort!
Doodle hun I hope you're ok after the exploding laptop incident!!!! Sounds really mental!
Not feeling too chipper today so will be having a lazy one with dooyoo and housework.
Might have a look at what books I could list on amazon..... try and make some money..... do people find their books sell quite well, how long do you list them for etc?Wealth is not measured by currency0
