    Well done yb - I see your total is down again. :T

    Re your break away, enjoy it, you deserve it. Remember how much you have paid off in such a short period of time and feel proud of that. I know I could have paid off my credit card had it not been for our holiday, but I enjoyed it so much, it was worth it and worth all the hard work now, so yours will be too. When you off?

    Yay, good news you got your holiday confirmation through. Something to look forward to and start planning for.
    Good new on yet more Ebay sales too. And OMG just look at your Chrimbo Cracker total already. :T
    Hope you're not too busy at work this weekend. I have had such a quiet week at work, but it has been so boring. At work just now! While the boss is away and all that :rotfl:

    I do that sometimes too at work, not very often though. My cracker total comes a lot from Ebay as I seem to be selling everything not nailed dwn at the mo and the house is still as cluttered.

    Have tooth ache in a tooth the dentist filled a couple of months ago. Not going back though!

    Oh no, phone the dentist and make an appointment before it gets bad. I learned the hard way, left a niggle for about two months and ended up having to get the tooth out.

    Nope, I'm too scared. It was bad enough going the first time. He should have taken the tooth out in the first place but it's half gone already and I don't think he wanted to take it out so he filled it instead.

    SO when you do go you will be both scared and in a lot of pain when it finally drives you to go?
    How will that help?
    Get it looked at now, if it is a recent filling it may be just something as simple as the bite being a little out...

    Of course one of my patients came in yesterday telling me "that filling you did last just fell out" When in reality it was one my predecessor did in 1994.

    Please have it checked. Problems dont go away on their own, the discomfort may go for a bit but it always, always comes back...
