    Evening everyone, I've eaten far too much again :o, but I've realised the exercise bike must be working as I wasn't worn out walking up the huge hill to my boyfriends house the other day...

    I hope you can fix your computer cl, and well done on your win lilmiss :). If you like the house and can afford it you have nothing to lose by having a viewing Jen. I get to apply for my income tax rebate tomorrow which will be £300 so am quite happy about that.

    Evening,

    Still no luck with my PC, I think it's wrecked :S hopefully it'll be okay once I've wiped it all. I've never had a virus like this before - even my antivirus didn't pick it up in time.

    lilmiss I agree with you about having fun while your young. I see my nan now and she's pretty much housebound, really makes you think twice about scrimping and saving. If you can afford it then why not :)

    I'm feeling frumpy, haha... I'm meant to be going shopping tomorrow with my mum and sisters, but don't want to try/buy clothes as I know it's going to make me feel even worse!

    Hi everyone, sorry I haven't been around, it's been one thing after another in our house at the mo and still going strong.

    Belated happy birthday mm.
    Nice house Jen good luck if you decide to go for it, and the job/
    Well done on the wins dawn and why not have another holiday if you can afford it. I would but can't afford it lol.

    I need to do some serious money working out today at some point. My car still isn't fixed as the mechanic was ill. OH needs some new tyres so was going to get them today but then his cam belt went this morning, so that's his car dead and gone now as it's not worth fixing on the age of it.

    So we're down to one car that still needs fixing before we're down to no car. So we have to work out who gets the new car or do we get 2 new cars and then can we afford it blah blah blah.
    Why is life never simple?

    And I need to get back into money making!

    Have a good day everyone. Have a friend round this morning and then want to do some serious sorting out this afternoon. I', house bound almost so I may as well make use of it lol.

    Morning everyone,

    It's nice to see you back Yukki, sorry about the car problems, hopefully it won't cost too much to sort out. I've managed to make £20 profit from slots this morning after doing another cashback offer in my dads name. I also did it in mine and didn't win, but if the cashback tracks okay I'll be £50 in profit which is another £50 off the overdraft :).
