    I didn't realise you were quite so isolated with it all, hypno - it makes the website extra important, absolutely. Have a Happy Red Nose Day.

    My "horse winnings" have reached my bank account, so a whole £15 transferred into the "pay off the loan" pot.......

    Just nipping downstairs to the bank to pay in my pension cheque.......:D

    KC, I think a lot of people feel isolated regarding their debt.....I guess that in real life, most of us are holding back as far as letting others know the "true" position. That's why MSE is such a vital resource :money:

    Thats true. Even though my friends and family know about the state my finances are in, I feel isolated. Its only on mse that people actually *understand*.

    And btw ... yay to the horsies! And a serious yay to the pension fund.

    No you gov here either :(

    Rescued this from about 5 pages ago .... I was moaning about yougov, and lucielle and beanie were also having problems. Sorry for the hijack, hypno!

    Anyway .... :o I changed my email addy on there, and I went back 3 times in 4 days, and did 3 prize surveys. Lo and behold this morning, there's a money survey to be done, 50p job for the brand index one. Maybe they like you to contribute every so often by doing prize surveys (I don't!!!). So I'll log in weekly and do them now - that £50 is really close!

    Hope you have all had a good day. I have done a couple of dooyoo reviews and am now slumped on the sofa watching comic relief. I paid my cheque in, so that is good.....nothing else to report!

    shaun, glad the solids are going well!

    Well I passed the test so I'm one step closer to my career in the financial services! :j There's me thinking I failed when I actually got between 95 and 100% out the questions I did! This makes Walshy happy! :D 1st round interview (of three :eek: ) on Tuesday at 11am!


    Now the annoyed part. I thought I'd go surprise the OH in the city as I had a particularly poor day at work. So I walk in (very MSE) draw some money out, get to the area he's meant to be based in, call, call again, leave 3 texts, call again and still nothing. Well it is only 5pm, the lecture may have over run (something about employment law...)

    Call again, stay in the pub for a few, wait around. Then get annoyed and walk to the station. I know it's not his fault as he didn't think I was coming but still really annoyed that he didn't think to get out of the basement to to check messages or something...

    So not in the mood today. I'm about to read for the rest of the night as Comic Relief really doesn't make me laugh. I'll watch the French and Saunders bit plus the Little Britain bit tomorrow.


    Hope everyone is well! And enjoy the weekend!
    :beer: Debt Free since July 2011 and it feels good! :beer:

    How do you amass £70k in a year?! :eek:
