    This will sound weird but I have wanted that toilet brush for two years. :o Every alternative I have picked up has had a 'clanky' and cheap feeling except this one! Anyway I will use the toilet brush more times that I will wear the blue satin peep toes, which were more expensive and will be subjected to equally unsanitary situations (feet, vomit, dog poop). Did that demonstate my school of justification graduateness? :D

    I now completely understand :D:D

    Sarahb will be so proud of you :rotfl:

    As I am going to start a new signature for the new year, the old one needs to be recorded somewhere:

    12/08
    student loan [strike]£3305[/strike] £5925
    service charges [strike]£3930[/strike] £3860
    savings [strike]£5200[/strike] £10650 Council Tax rebanded to A! Yorkshire Water £40

    31/12/09 Pinecone £30 IPSOS £40+380pts Valued Opinions £40+£8.75 GTM £30+550pts YouGov £21.75 Indiefield £5 Saros £65

    Overtime £1062
    Topcashback £97 Wepromiseto £220 A&L £100 Clubcard £157 Boots £20 Nectar £5+803pts iPoints 1353 SimpleVIP 510
    August Grocery Challenge £93 Sept £105 Oct £100 Nov £107 Dec £99

    Also due £9 with my next Clubcard statement and loads of Nectar points from the Amazon purchases! Just rung the council tax helpline and I apparently owe £202 to the end of the financial year, which seems wrong as that is only four months instead of six (October to March). There is also £9 owing on the old account. :confused:
