    Lara, I knew what you meant, ignore the dirty minded children! LOL!
    I stayed well away from Embarrassing Bodies last night, I learned my lesson last week; I've only just recovered!
    I feel very special that I had my own NIM Mega post! Thank you! :D
    ETA: Good news about the affordable wedding venues Lara! I just got an e-mail from a Castle in South Wales offering 'free' weddings off season/ during the week if you fancy going up to Wales for the day?

    Got the holiday for Kent booked this morning! Something to look forward too, finally! Going into town this afternoon to treat myself to the Harajuku G perfume for summer, reduced to £12 and I have a 10% off voucher so pretty darn MSE really. Should be £10.80 if my mental maths is still up to scratch?

    Glad to hear you're feeling better Lara! That must of been pretty scary, take it easy!

    Still not managing to get worked up about Swine Flu, no matter how much Radio 1s news people keep going on about it! I did though, for a whole day, believe it was called spinal flu.

    ETA: It wasn't that bad last night Birdie!! Just bumps and skins problems. And poo at the end like Flower said. No where near as bad as that girls foot!

    Morning all. Got another £76 last night through from NIMs bonus and some MS and £13 from amazon, it's counted on the £10 a day challenge, but haven't put it into the £20k challenge or the house deposit yet, as its just in a holding account until we get the ISA opened, then I'll count it!

    Was at work on consultations until 7.15 last night, so have been told I can take a half day off to make up for it! This works out really well as I'll take a half days flexi (don't have enough hours for a full one) and get a full day off next week for 'free' to paint! (Or if I'm good, to iron!).

    NIMs interview today, I know he's good to do the job, and he has a confident interview manner, but something in me just says this other guy is already tipped to have the job having worked there so long.

    Lol I think you started a bit early on the May challenge Lara - it's still April!

    Well I'm staying clear of that show regardless, I don't want to look at poo!
    LOL @ the Spinal Flu! I can't get excited about it either, I'm a bit bored of all of these 'epidemics/ pandemics', everyone got bored of Bird Flu quickly enough!
    Well done on booking the holiday and the perfume sounds like a bargain so buy away!

    Good luck NIM!
    Wouldn't be fair on NIM if they were just doing interviews to show they are going through the 'motions', but lots of companies do do it. Saying this the council did it for one post with a woman in mind, but someone came along to the interview and they decided the person was better than who they had pinned so they got the job instead. So you never know!

    I felt cheated by Bird Flu, thought I was going to die then nothing! They made a might old fuss over that.

    Yay for a 'free' day off of work!! I'd love flexi but just get overtime instead, which is money so I can't complain really. My payslip this week has gone up by £10 too, vair impressed!

    Sadly no overtime here or I would definitely take it!

    Had a parcel sold on Amazon on Friday, completely forgot about it, went to wrap it last night and it's not where it should be! Grrrr! Have emailed the bloke and apologised profusely.
