    Glad you had a good night Jen and good luck for tomorrow :-)
    I feel crap today got a headache :-( Had a look at your page Yukki -i like your jewellery,very pretty. Was considering putting some of my stuff on there but a lot of the prices are ridiculously cheap, I know its mainly people just doing it for hobbies so they don't take into account the time taken to make it.

    Morning everyone,

    Good luck Jen, and I hope your shop goes well Yukki. I've managed to blow most of my wages this week, though in my defence most of it was on presents. It's my brothers birthday in a couple of weeks so I asked him what he wanted and he said clothes. My two sisters are so overpowering me and my brother tend to be overlooked a bit. He's just finished college so he doesn't have a job yet so I ended up spending more on him than I usually would.

    Anyway, apart from the bank holiday this is the first day I've had off work in 16 weeks so I've been desperate for a break. I've got tomorrow off, and next Monday & Tuesday so I'm going to try and make loads of jewellery as I don't have time for it usually. Next week I'm going to start saving for a house deposit - I figure as they're 0% I might as well fill up my ISA before I pay any more of them off...

    That's a good idea NIcki. Will they stay at 0%? I'm waiting on some beads to be delivered so I can make some more jewellery, nothing ever arrives when I want it to and then I always see more that I want lol. Too addicting.

    Hope you feel beter MM and your day is going ok Jen

    They both stay at 0% til September 2011, and I only have to pay £500 off of each of them by Sept 10. I think I'm still going to attack them when the ISA is full though as I really want rid of the Abbey one as they are a rubbish bank. I don't mind about the other one quite so much as it's the account I'll be keeping when I close the other one.

    I what you mean Yukki, this is what my bed looks like at the moment, I've kind of barracaded myself in the corner. I have far too much stuff, I don't even want to think about how much Imust have spent on it all. Oh, and excuse the lack of sheets lol. I've washed mine today and I prefer the ones I've washed to the spares so I'm hoping they'll be dry by later.
