    How are they looking?

    Well, I haven't gone over the limits and used the credit card at all (not counting last month's massive and unavoidable car and physio spends) So not as bad as I thought it might be.

    I'm definitely going to clear the Egg loan as that will free up a greater amount of money each month to throw at the other debts. So natwest will go back to minimum payment for a while.

    Hurrah! Hamster's back!:santa2::hello::wave: Lucielle will be happy too :j

    I'm suffering with too much work at the moment - hardly any time to browse the diaries. What exactly do you do for a living Hamster? I know you get tips for serving biscuits and de-ice cars in your socks....but what do you get paid for??

    I wish I knew :confused:, so far this week I have for work ,
    been shopping for various items ,
    contacted the IT support firm, about helping fixing works pc remotely , for 2 other departments ,
    updated websites at for work ,
    recieved tips for my tea & bicuits giving ,
    Made one new person so annoyed at me that they actually got of their ar**e and just to "show me" they went and actually did what Id been asking them to do for 3 weeks, ,,,,,,,,they still failed to complete the task completly though.I used to do their job as well as mine and the millions of other things I do.

    basically everything I'm not actually employed to do for where I work,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, sometimes I feel like I'm trapped in a wheel and just run round and round.:rotfl::rotfl:
