  • Hiya, have just come across your diary and think you are doing great!!! congrats on the wedding and for getting it for £6!!!! most of the weddings we have been to have cost them upwards of £15k so big pat on the back for you!!!

    I too am a nurse although unfortuantly not in the nhs (trying to close our local hospital slowly) what area are you in?? I love wounds and looking into district nursing.......

    i will be reading your diary with interest, and wishing you the best of luck clearing your debts. (wish i had a friend promising me a million quid though....)

    does your debt include your mortgage??

    love rags

  • Hi, i do have a diary, not sure how to do a link to it but its called "my rags to riches, weight loss, yummy mummy and 'owt else i can think of diary"

    I have only been qualified since march 2004, and was in trauma orthopaedics. due to working an hour away i had to leave when i had ds1 as no childcare would look after him knowing i was so far away.........in a nursing home at the mo (but its a really good one)

  • Penguin thank you... ahhh diet to commence tomorrow how depressing :D ....all for the greater cause... this continuous debt busting is a drainer if only it would drain some calories with it hehe. You look like you are doing well with your debt free journey just wish it wasnt so painful paying people back hehehe... ahhh i like to think what id be doing now if i had no debt would i be saving like a ranting loony :D i suppose i would because nothing worth buying at the moment :D xxx ahhh x
