    Yay! From next year I will be getting a trial month of compressed working, whereby I'd work 8-5:30 Monday-Thursday :) Despite the long hours, I feel that having every Friday off will prove to be a really good way to get a little more work/life balance?

    Nay! BA are striking from the 22nd of December. I go home on the 23rd. If they mess up my GFs Christmas, I will not be a happy bunny :mad:

    Virgin Bingo have threatened to delete my account if I continue to use the free scratch card without depositing £5 a month (apparently they're changing the T&Cs and everyone will be effected by this). So, looks like I'll get one last tenner out of Butlins bingo and then my free scratch days will be over.

    Hey, the £60-70 I made over the last year was nice, but I didn't expect it to go on for ever.

    Work is dragging in this week - come on Christmas.

    Woohoo - my ISA is back up to triple figures! I have removed the embarrassed smiley of shame, as I am no longer ashamed :rotfl:

    Also got about £80 in sealed jars, so getting on quite well for 2010's DFW shenanigans.

    New diary soon.

  • Hi Edinburgher
    I've been cheering you on from the sidelines of your diary rather than posting, but just wanted to come out of lurking to wish you and your GF a very Happy Christmas! Have a look at the beginning of your diary to see how far you've come this year - amazing! Looking forward to the new one in 2010!

    xx
    Overpay!
