    On the subject of strange topics, I have just been watching 2 wood pigeons .....erm.....at it ...... right outside my window. They finished, and he started ignoring her then went to sleep, so she kept pecking at him. So funny :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    That sounds strangely familiar...

    My best tip is the £10 a day thread. That and finally getting through to your DH that action needs to be taken. That bit took a REALLY long time.

    Oh, and of course, looking at my signature - the clear £10k in a year thread. Really motivating.

    I would try euroffice through quidco bookie, they are quite reasonable.

    I tend not to post a lot either as i also think that people dont want to hear about my rubbish...

    :hello: Morning everyone, another Ellidee style lurker here! Don't normal post on daily chat, usually because I'm at work all day and by the time I get home, I don't usually have anything constructive to contribute :o I do like to read it every day though, even if sometimes I struggle to keep up!

    Snaggles, I am SOOOO jealous of your iPod.... I want one!!!

    FWIW, I'm quite liking the split between the diaries and the main board, only because now I have found diaries that I wouldn't normally have read. I do agree the main board is looking a bit depressing, but I guess we were all at that stage at one point... sometimes I still think I am! :eek:

    My best 'tips' are the No Spend Day challenges, as they really make me think about whether I need to buy something or not, the 100 day challenge (as before) and the Payment a Day thread (have apid an additional £1k approx of my debt that otherwise would have been spent!:) )

    Happy St Patricks Day everyone!

    Sx
