    That's exciting Nicki, have a nice weekend as well.

    Jen I start at 2.30pm
    Postie has just been and delivered my game so off for a work out in a min lol. Thanks re the job, it does sound very exciting, but I'm going to try and forget about it as I prob wont be able to afford the child care even if I did get it, but we'll see, not worrying about something that hasn;t happened yet.

    Yes I think I will fight the paypal / ebay thing as I would understand if I hadn't stated very clearly that was faulty. I've replied in paypal stating this so we'll see but my account is in a negative at the mo on there and have ebay sales ending tomorrow so all funds will be swallowed up in that.

    I've never claimed bank charges Jen so not sure what to say to you sorry.

    It's not my day today, just had a shower after my knackering workout lol and came downstairs to find a swimming pool in the kitchen.

    I give up lol

  • Hi hi,

    Last night I did a matched bet and it messed up (not my fault though, but the cider didn't help :o)! Took me about an hour to fix it, with help from the MB forum. I was clueless. Considering I've been risking £500 on some bets, I think I'm going to slowww down and read more.

    I'm off to play some risk-free slots on BP :p

    A new car sounds like a good idea if it will save you money in the long run. What sort were you thinking of getting? Now's a good time to buy a car!

    Well i have been saving for a hours but i think i might spend 2K-3K on a car as in the long run it should pay for itself by using less petrol and costing less on the insurance and tax. I also fancy splashing out on a treat!!
