    I will definately be taking it at a steady pace, I don't want to rush things and then it doesn't go well. I am still working hard at getting the debt cleared at the same time so I will be doing what I can until then, I think researching will be good whilst I am doing this and when that is done I will have alot more time, freedom and money to work on it more.

    Check out the this link as this is where i went for all my business advice. Now i know what you will be doing isn't obviously holistic massage but a lot of the principles and ideas still apply. Plus everyone on there is very friendly. Before i started out i read every thread on the 36 pages on there:eek: Got so much helpful advice though.

    Good luck with it all:D

    Nice to see you back pips mum, everyone falls off the wagon sometimes and whats more important is picking yourself back up. As another friend told me once, failure isn't about not succeeding, its when things don't go right and you don't pick yourself back up again. Things might not be great but trudging on means lots of people have succeeded today!:j:T:T:j

    Good luck with the job hunting Cleosmum, when you get your dream job very soon you will have that savings pot topped up in no time!;)

    Not much for me I'm afraid. I gave in walking to work today and went into the coffee shop for a latte (£1.20 before 9.30!) but did havea ceap lunch in the subsidised canteen earlier.

    Will check Quidco as there'a bout £40 on my account and I'm not sure when it's due;

    My 5 year old ipod has given up the ghost over the past few days so my treat to myself will be a new one out of my bonus.

    RIP my scratched, battered, well loved and 9,500 track ipod! :(
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!

    Hi guys, just checking in. Thanks for all positive messages - it was great to be back with people today! Training was quite a heavy subject - Loss and Bereavment - but one of the best I have been on in ages.

    Did a Yougov survey when got home and now just chilling out - fire on really low as it's chilly here tonight.

    evening all

    just coming on to procrastinate. Need to hand in a 1200 word essay by midnight and I have precisely 12 words written.

    However, in preparing, I have eaten 3 blue ribands, played with the dog and burst a blister on my foot. Now I am in pain LOL

    Did get the car fixed by hubbie of girl at work so it will def be cheaper than going to garage. Am thinking a bottle of bubbly and a tenner or something but she is going to let me know tomorrow.
