    CL- Hope the dentist goes OK, im ok once i get in the chair its the waiting room that i hate! The smell and the noises going on!

    Jen- Thats rubbish for you about ur collegue being offered it and not you. :(
    The extra hours sound good though, how many hours are you doing atm?

    MM- How has your week off been?

    My dentist couldnt fit me in today they said i could come down and sit in the waiting room until they have a free minute or make an appointment for next week. The earliest they could book me for is thursday!!! So ive got a long wait ahead of me.

  • Oh dear Jen, you must be confused! Still if the money will come in handy & the hours suit you, then maybe that's the way to go?

    Dentist was so-so :S It was a different one to who I saw last week (the one last week was LOVELY but he was a private dentist who fitted me in for emergency treatment)... not sure I liked the one today but never mind.

    I could tell he couldn't be bothered with me and just wanted to take the easy option and pull the tooth out... but he said the other option was a crown & root canal, so I chose that (even though he tried to convince me otherwise)... so I have another 3x 1hr appointments in the next month!

    Anywaaaay! Looking forward to BB finale tonight :D

    Morning all,

    I am feeling a bit better today i plan to look into how the extra hours will effect my working family tax and see if it will help me get a morgage etc. not sure what to do to be honest but i will look into it all!

    I am going to phone and cancel the course and student finance today so that will be done out of the way.

    No idea what else to do today dd wants to play out all day!!

    Morning Jen and anyone esle who may be lurking :)

    The weather is lovely here today! Nothing much planned though, we we're thinking of feeding the ducks today and going to see final destination 3D tonight! Ive never seen a 3D film at the cinema!

    Yeah thats the problem with extra hours, you might up end being worse off taking them on!
