            Fantabulous!! I've just paid the last 33p off Barclaycard and that one bites the dust.

 Well done lucielle!! It's a great feeling. I imagine I'll have the equivalent of the 33p to pay off. I'm not updating my signature until the statement comes in, as that's the way I've worked this debt busting lark.Total debt at October 2008: £67,213.30

            Hmm, Fitflops are going rub between my toes, any ideas on how to deal with it before I get blisters??
 I spent £8 on getting my work shoes reheeled this morning, suppose it's better than buying new shoes, but not as exciting :rolleyes:

 Well done Piq. One down and Natwest to go. Ding a ling - Round 2.
 I took my horse out for a saunter last night. Luckily its a bit cooler know as I was nearly glowing as much as the ned. Not a pretty sight for anyone, let me tell you. I nearly threw the wash down bucket over me rather than the horse.
 I so love the light nights. May the dratted winter never EVER return or darken our shores EVER again.

 Unfortunately, I am nearly always the colour of a post box after riding, and I can't even tell you about the hairstyle after I've removed my riding hat - suffice to say, it won't used in any hair spray adverts!
 There is no feeling like being covered in sweat, dirt and random horse hairs, is there? Yuck...Total debt at October 2008: £67,213.30

            I've worked all weekend :eek: not used to this, I'm afraid...
 Thought about Dragons suggestion on the surgical spirits, but haven't got any, wondered if vodka had the same effect. Then thought, don't be silly, drink the vodka! A friend told me about some gel things that you wrap around the toe post of the flipflops (called party feet) and they have done the trick!!
 Hamster, cutting off toes is what the ugly sisters did to fit the glass slipper, what are you implying????
 Have done nothing but work, but will be back to do a financial update later, well, lunchtime, I expect!Total debt at October 2008: £67,213.30
