Darwin broke down on a main road in the dark on a bend - trying to explain to someone in deepest darkest englandshire where Orkney was etc - was a bit of a laugh - and we also ended up with the police stopping - phoning the local AA folks who do the contract and helping loads

yay to your OH turning up unexpectedly!!!!
sorry to hear about Darwin but well done to the policeman.
we spent lots yesterday - new bed! and got 0% credit for it. It still scares me, i've applied for credit for the first time since i started this journey and now i've increased my debt for the first time (well ok that's melodramatic cos the money is there in the baby savings account and it doesn't look like we'll be needing that for a while)0 -
LT - You may need baby savings earlier than you think once the new bed arrives!!!:rotfl::rotfl:
OH NO! Poor Darwin! Hope he recovers well, and cheaply!Debt at LBM [strike]£17,544[/strike] :eek: £5700:TOver £14,000 PAID OFF :T

I need to think money again soon - got to get my butt in gear
Gargamel has his money back in him
DS now has a savings account online which is getting my PAD's (that's where they went to!)
Must post on small things and check bank
Got a roast on for later - and as the oven is a bit dodgy at the moment (not getting up past 200oF - so its a slow roast, veggies are done etc
Yum yum - need to crank open the sewing machine and start on darwins curtains as he has 2 rails up now
2 to go and he'll be grand - of course thats if he ever moves again - typical eh I spent yesterday cleaning him out and washing him down, new covers into him, cups, plates, hot chocolate at the brough of birsay yesterday before we broke down!Total debt 26/4/18 <£1925 we were getting there. :beer:
