Mizmir's "Determined to be debt free by Christmas 2009" diary

Yes indeed - and I must go to bed - am shattered!
Haven't done much of anything but have I think released one of my lost fortunes from the bookies so should have an unexpected £360 coming into my account - very welcome. Only about £20 of it is profit but still that is a nice start to my mb revival! Also got an unexpected bonus at the training club so am very happy with that.0 -
That is good news then, well done.Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:0 -
That's great news x0

Morning. Am really struggling with having to get going in the mornings again - should be leaving about now but am still getting sorted. Am just so tired - and it is only after one day back!! Need to get to bed earlier methinks.
As said yesterday withdrew the £360 (£20 ish profit) from one bookie and have another £60 (£23 profit) to withdraw today when I can work out which card it is sending it to (it is OH's old c0ral account - not used for 18 months - card is likely expired!). But will see what happens. Also did yesterday's and today's scratches over midnight - total earnings 70p!
Plans today - meetings all day at work. Tonight will try to do another bit of my b 365 WR, do a review on dooyoo and perhaps tackle that damn cupboard - will be a psychological victory to do that if nothing else.
Have a good day everyone0 -
Thats *really* good, mizmir - I mean, a forgotten profit of £43, plus that bonus from the dog training! It can't be bad, can it. Hope you feel better today - I'm slow starting as well.2023: the year I get to buy a car0

Might have to knock £20 off that. Seems I can't do the wr with money in my cash account - has to be from my bonus account - but can't use bonus account till cash account is empty! Cash account has £300 in it - if I withdraw I forgo the bonus. But to play it through means I have to lose it all - and even if I had the BF balance to do it - it is too risky - I might win and have even more money I can't get at tied up there. I think this is one I will walk away from - if they let me take the cash balance!
Probably lost £5-6 on the thing so far but can't do much about that. :rolleyes:
But still was a £67 profit for the day so not complaining.0 -
Bother! They don't make it easy for us, do they .... grrr.2023: the year I get to buy a car0

They certainly do! Cut my losses on that one - have withdrawn over £300 I had forgotten I had so am not complaining. Thank goodness for c0ral - nice easy SR reload - withdrawn without any bother!
Taking it easy this evening - forget that cupboard! - but I might get a dooyoo review done as they have accepted one of my suggestions!0 -
Aha! I've not done Coral yet... and 18 8 are beckoning, with a pretty good offer of 48% bonus, apparently. Spoilt for choice! And here I am listing SF magazines from the 1990s on ebid.... ah well, we can't all rule the world. Sleep well xx2023: the year I get to buy a car0

Hi all - just got a chance to post - have been setting up a new BT home hub - not that impressed so far - seems slower than my old wireless router. But they sent it free at the same time as cutting my BT package down to £20 a month (including broadband, line rental and free calls anytime) - all I did was ring them and threaten to go elsewhere and suddenly they couldn't wait to give me a better deal. :rolleyes::T Anyway will see if it improves and if not will put the other one back!
Not a bad day today though the only DF thing I have done is a dooyoo review (have had 3 suggestions accepted though so have a few more lined up to do). Also discovered I got £27.98 interest from my ISA that I was using for annual costs and emergencies so that was a nice surprise. Otherwise just need to do my scratches then I think I will call it a day - am too tired to do much tonight!0
