    Hi everyone, thanks tomtombeanie, double trouble, pippo and Fag_ash_lil for the welcome!:beer: I've got lots of debt to get rid of so will probably be here for a while!

    Trying to get a new job as I've been doing shop work for the past two and a half years after finishing my degree. I was on a PG teaching course but gave it up recently as it wasn't for me :( - I love working with kids but I'm not great at being the teacher! Finding it hard to know what to do with myself and need to get rid of these debts:rolleyes:.

    As for this mad thread, I'm already feeling quite at home....:T
    Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. Car loan 1 £11,174, Car loan 2 £5,532, CC 0% BT £780. Debt Free Diary to try & keep spending in check.
  • She has been told that they will take the lump out and the lymph nodes followed by radiotheraphy. Not sure if she will need chemotheraphy yet. They are operating a week on Tuesday. She is relieved that they are not taking the whole breast.

    Thanks for asking.

    It must be a very worrying time for her and all your family ..... Am very pleased to hear that they will be taking the lump out and not taking the whole breast .....

    Does she live near you ?

  • As I'm still up, I've just made a Saturday PAD of
    £2.14
    to a credit card.
    I'm keeping them low at the moment becausae I willneed to spend money on my van next week due to MOT time. I already know that my bare minimum spend will need to be £250 - that's without other stuff that I may not be aware of. That's on top of the £200+ for some tyres a couple of weeks back. There's also a service due but that will have to keep until next month sometime.
    It sounds bad but it doesn't feel so awful when it's a work van. At least I will (eventually) get tax relief on most of it.
  • Hi all,

  • Morning everyone.

    Happy Saturday. I have work for 5 hours today so roll on 3pm :rotfl:.

    For all those celebrating Valentines day, have a great day. Its also our wedding anniversary, we must have been mad:rotfl:

    Pad today £5.14

    My pads are going to my post office cc at the moment, it is 0% and will have it gone before it runs out in May:T. Then onto Virgin which is 0% till June, but only £300 left so that will be gone too.

    To all newbies on this thread, pad really works, even a few pence a day makes a huge difference when those statements tumble through the letterbox:T
    Pad, started 28.11.08 running total £3674.91:T

    Hi everyone Happy Valentines Day

    My total PAD today is £13.66 which consists of £7.00 to Next and £6.66 (wouldn't have done this yesterday lol) to Cap One.

    Up early as haven't got DH a valentines card and have to sneak to Mr Ts in a mo.:D We are not doing pressies as we are paying balance of our Easter break this week (much more important me thinks!). Anyhow having the M & S meal which i eventually got yesterday jeez what a scrum had seconds thought about it i can tell you.:rotfl: Have a lovely day everybody and welcome to all newbies. Will catch up with posts later this afternoon. x
    Payment A Day £15 (started 17/5/14) :j
  • good morning all! ended up going to bed about 8pm last night due to boozy lunch out with friends catching up with me! only a few glasses worth, but it does me in when it's in the middle of the day :o. didn't even have my tea :eek: but feel "normal" (by my standards anyway) this morning after a whopping 11 hours of sleep!

    so my pad yesterday was 1.13, today's is 1.14 which makes a total of *2.27*.
    due to my unforeseen bobos, we have had to shift curry night from yesterday to today, which means our free M&S num nums will be for sunday night instead of tonight.

    have a great saturday everyone! xx
    Mortgage free as of 11/11/15 !
