    Had a major debate with myself about a new rug, and I can't have one, I'm broke!! Having said that I don't actually need another one... My lad has a neck cover as he has a very long, should be white mane - need I say more??

    Thursday 11 December

    Yet again I have forgotten to bring in the necessary details to get my online credit card account unlocked :mad: This is the one that will bring down my debt total for my signature and the £20k challenge. I will do it tomorrow as I'll be at home and the numbers are there!

    Interesting day financially:
    • my gas company have refunded £25
    • my electricity company have refunded £31
    • BT have refunded £73.79
    • 2 Amazon sales have netted £10.11
    • found a penny in the street
    • paid 34p library fine:o
    I can now survive the rest of the month, provided nothing untoward happens:j

    I just wanted to say thankyou to everyone who's popping in, you're all great fun and really helpful, look forward to seeing you today :santa2:

    Yes I am funnily enough, you'd have thought that after all we've managed to put each other through we'd just give up and walk away! He is very entertaining and funny so I will have a giggle, won't be that kind to him, I'm not ready yet, need to be sure he'll come through this time.

    Hipiq, well done on all the money you got back from the gas and elec companies today, must be a nice feeling.

    Fingers crossed for your date today, hope it all goes well and look forward to the next installment.
