    I dont think it is pox...... it seems to have started to clear up, hasnt spread and i dont feel ill..... im starting to think maybe it was a reaction to something, although the pharmiscist said it looked like pox virus.....

    You're right about that, however i'd be more impressed if it hadnt made me go into an unauthorised overdraft!!!!!

    RATS!

    Hi Doodledoo - w/e okay so far. Been reasonably well behaved money wise.

    CAFC girl I'm glad that your spots are clearing up - does that mean back to work tho? Also do your bank payments show the payments as out or are they forward dated on your statement? My payments tomorrow are showing on my bank account but with tomorrow's date?

  • It is in the NHS working in information (basically helping my organisation work out how to spend millions of pounds for their geographical patch and then monitor how well the services that are provided are working)

    A bit of a non answer, but when people !!!!! about NHS managers taking money away from patients, well, that is sort of me although I obviously don't see it quite like that - lol

  • Hello everyone.

    I'm going to try and post more often before you all forget about me.

    I'm back to full strength now, am so glad, only took 2 weeks to fully recover, can now lift 6 month old with no pains.

    Not doing too well with the paying off debt. Transfered £9 from one of my betting accounts (used to do the Irish Lottery) so that has come off my Nationwide account as it was credited back to it, also have £1 on my Lloyds credit card from another betting account I closed down so will have to get that transferred although I'm waiting to see if they offer me a better BT in the next few months.

    Been busy Ebaying today, have 35 items listed on my Personal ID, don't want to list too much at 99p but hopefully will attract a few people and hopefully will get a fair amount. I sold a Dora the Explorer dressing gown for about £4.70 I think (can't remember exactly), that was much more than I was expecting as I sold one the same in a different size a month or so ago and only got 99p for it.

    I have 75 things on my Business account (some of the things have more than one item on).

    I sold a few things yesterday, had £11.70 in Paypal on Friday evening, when I got back from my Nan's yesterday evening had £49 so am pleased about that.

    Nothing much else happening, my parents are back at the weekend so bf and myself are going Xmas shopping while my parents watch the kids, he wants to go to the new shopping centre at Shepherds Bush.

    CAFCGirl - hope you don't have the Pox

    Everyone else it's good to see everyone doing so well, my New Year's Resolution is to pay off as much as possible as quickly as possible. I've bought my huge money tin for the Sealed Pot Challenge.

    More stuff to list now so will check back later.

    Good luck with the job then make sure you let us know how you get on.

    I am used to people saying things about my job too as I work with for the Police and even though everyone wants them there when they need them the same people also slag them off.:mad:
