            Mrs Audus, hope all is ok your end.
 Piq, matched betting is very easy, which is the scary part, obviously you have to be careful and think it through but the concept itself and how to do it is easy. When i did it for the first time i couldn't understand how it had taken me so long to get my head round and yet the concept is simple.
 Good luck with it all and if you have any questions, ask them on the newbie thread on the gambling intro. Their very good there and you can even post your planned bet and they will tell you if you've got it right and if not, how to do it.:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j

            Oooh, just one more little DFW thing that I've realised today...
 I'm doing lightspeed surveys, and I can redeem them for Coast vouchers! That's great, because I have to go to Dining In nights (sort of like very formal dinners) with BF's RAF job and have to be turned out in a ball dress. And I love Coast dresses. So now I won't have to save so much to buy my next dress! (And at £150 they're expensive dresses...). I didn't want to go down the charity shop route, because I can never find anything quite right (I'm 23, 5ft tall and 7.5stone, so I REALLY have to have well fitting stuff!)0
