Have to think about that, I've said I'm not misbehaving until he's sure he's sorted out and we have managed to rebuild some trust back. Think I will do carrot soup eventually though :rotfl:excellent idea :rotfl:Total debt at October 2008: £67,213.30

Not sure I want entertaining dates, bloomin' horse, frightens me to death....I thought he'd been stolen. Though with his attitude, the thieves would bring him back pretty quickly:rotfl:Total debt at October 2008: £67,213.30

:rotfl: I think the theives would have paid you rather than you paying them a ransom.
Hmmmmmmmmmm my only memory of me on a horse was when i was 13(a long time ago) my friend had a birthday treat and we went horseriding except I managed to get the horse that just wanted to eat all the time and I couldn't get him out of the bushes and had to be rescued:rotfl:£2 savers club 2025 #40 -

I've done that many times over the years, not so much with the captain, but plenty of ponies! and they're very difficult to argue with when the head's down!:rotfl:Total debt at October 2008: £67,213.30

He'd probably eat it.....
I had to read the matched betting instructions so many times until I got it. Then I was afraid that I'd misunderstood something because it seemed so simple. I still worry that it is so simple, so I must be doing something wrong. But I do have about £50 each of three accounts :j
I told you it was simple:rotfl:Off to place some matched bets tonight myself!
Sorry the date didn't go as well as planned, but at least this way he sees you for all you are, horse and all and you see his reaction, better to find out how you both feel about the full situation now rather than later. Hope it works out whichever way you want it to. As ever we wait to here the next installments and well done on the continued overpayments.
p.s, very funny story though!!:j Live on £4500, £2531/£4500:T 101 in 1001 (52/101):j:beer::j

Fantastic diary, will be watching in from now on. Love the bag of carrots, guess he can take a joke and that's pretty important.

Hello everyone :hello:
Haven't been around for the weekend, have been quite poorly, somehow managed to get bronchitis and finding breathing a little difficult at times. Now have double dose anti-biotics and an inhaler, so will start feeling better shortly!
Have just had confirmation that I have had the payment protection removed from my loan, this will take effect from Janaury, even though I requested it in November. It will free up another £25 to throw at my debt. As soon as I am back up and about I will start the mis-selling project as I know I didn't ask for it as I already have a policy for this sort of thing. That's why I'm not worried about missing two months payments!

Hello!
Must admit, was wondering where you where. Hope you are feeling better soon! Surely its a good opportunity for Ex to come round and show you his nursing skills??;)
Good luck on the mis-selling thing. I don't have the guts to go after all mine (and charges and stuff). I really must develop a backbone!!
Take it easy, feet up etc etc

I prefer to be ill in private! Rather embarrassingly I weep very easily when I'm ill and things get all out of proportion, for example, I've just cried all over a friend who is looking after my horse for me until I'm better. I cried because I was so grateful :rolleyes:Total debt at October 2008: £67,213.30
