    you cheeky mare jinky - I've only just finished the bottle of vodka I bought in January and I've had 12 cans of cider in the house for over a month now and they haven't been touched :p

    I haven't done anything like that for months!!!!!! Where have you been woman (ok, I think I know the answer to that! :rotfl:)


    Paid off my gas/electric bill bar £14. Because I did it through their automated system, I can't have my DD adjusted for 3 days until it's processed so I am going to call back Thursday and get a new DD amount and get it altered before the 1 May payment. Obviously it won't be as low as it has been but at least it will be better than the £90 they had put it up to from this month!

    Do you want me to find evidence? :grin:

    I need to phone BG too...they whacked up my DD (nothing like yours though) and having just got my bill, I am in credit.....not by much but it all counts.

    Just had an email asking if I'll invigilate an exam on Thursday evening for a couple of hours. Excellent. I'm hoping for lots of invigilating this term to make up for some of the teaching I'm not now doing although because the rate is half I'd need to do loads to equal it, but whatever I am offered is appreciated :D

    Don't forget that your preparation work is unpaid, so at the mo, your teaching work is lower paid than the exam work.

    If you do something profitable during the time you're not in the exam, it works out even better.
