    Morning everyone,

    Last night was a bit rubbish, I paid £3 to get into a horrible nasty chav club, as it turns out I was only in there for about three minutes as I was freezing from being stood outside for ages and wanted to keep my coat on to warm up for a bit. They wouldn't let me in the main bit without putting it in the cloakroom so I just left. I don't like being told what to do at the best of times and I couldn't drink as was driving so it would have been terrible anyway.

    I didn't do A&L so can't help you there, sorry. I did have some good news this morning though, my car insurance validated on quidco after I had to put a claim in, and I've won £30 on foxy bingo from their £20 free play. It was actually £40 but I played through another £5 and I have to deposit £5 before I can withdraw, though I'm not allowed to withdraw my deposit.

    I hope you sort your kitchen out soon Jen.

    Sounds like an awful club you went to, Nikki :S I have never been to a club in my life! I hate the idea of them... I'd much rather sit in a quiet little pub, heh.

    Just noticed loads of threads are being moved to the new forum, I wonder if ours will be?

    edit - ooooh this is my 1000th post! :p:D

    New forum???god i'm unobservant!!

    Well I have been busy today,saw a nissan micra 2005 in a local garage for £6495 and asked them what they would give me in px for my MINI-bloke said £5200 (£700 better than MINI) Went there didi a test drive etc and then persuaded him to give me another £300 for the mini so new car cost £1000!! Will be picking it up at the end of the week (also got him to refurbish alloys and sort out some scratches!)
    paid the £200 deposit and borrowing £800 from my uncle so just added £800 to my debt but at least i'm sorted now!

    Hope you get your kitchen mopped up jen-wot a nightmare!

    It was a liquid/envy if you're familiar with the chain. I just dislike them because they play rubbish music, are full of chavs wearing far too little, and think they are better than they really are. They always have riot vans outside the one where I live so they can catch those who get completely off their faces and feel the need to start fighting with anyone who looks at them slightly wrong. Not really a great experience...

    I actually love decent clubs, I used to go to them at least once or twice a week when I was at uni. I probably like them for the same reason you don't cl, I'm so inhibited when I'm sober it's nice to be able to have a few drinks, listen to decent music and not care about anything else. In fact, some of the happiest times of my life have been in clubs lol.
