Wooo go Birdie!! That's not much debt really, you can do it easy. Look, I'm cheerleading for you already!

Asked OH to block my clothes websites for me, he says he'll sort it out tomorrow if he can figure it out. So that's me sorted!!

Right, off to get some milk and biscuits to watch some very annoying people (bar the lovely James!) try and win Sir Alans heart. Have a nice night everyone!

Oops I have recently moved my current account to A&L in order to take advantage of the £100 offer plus £50 from quidco. However I have keep my Barclays open. I applied for a tesco clubcard credit card on Monday you get club points on purchases in other stores. I picked up a leaflet in store so that I can't get 0% interest on transfers. You can't do that if you apply online.

My dd's OH bought her a ring for christmas from goldsmiths and I gave him £20 in vouchers so that he could get her the one he really wanted which meant that he got £80 off.

Dinah has NIM looked into the graduate teacher training course, whereby you start your training without a PGCE and get paid while you train. I think that you just need a school to take you on (I will find out tomorrow). A number of schools are willing to take you because they get a teacher for little outlay. They also get £8,000 for taking on an NQT.

Oooh, I like that idea, Rent-a-Dinah!

Why do I feel like a DFW-hooker?!

NIM was telling me he was in the moneysense advisor advisor place, and they had a sign advertising for advisors, he thought of me. I think I'd actually quite like the job, but sadly I don't have any real qualifications!

That sounds really interesting ROTE, I'm sure he'd appreciate any info you have on it. I know he saw one somthing like at a nearby catholic school, but it doesn't start for two years!

Sorry for being a ball buster today.

Another £20 towards the house today courtesy of amazon.

NIM might pm you TPA as that's really interesting, what age range/subject do you teach?

Very impressed with your sig Birdie, CC2 looks like a good goal for June

Missed out on all the pizza MS this evening, second month in a row - absolutely gutted as we were actually there paying for a dinner when the jobs were released and if we hadn't gone we'd have bagged some!

Ooooh just realised, we will pass the halfway mark in the 20k in 2009 challenge before the end of the month!

Run Birdie, run and never look back!

All aloney on my owny this morning, Dad has decided to go off with his ageing leathered friends up to Scotland on his bike, My brother has gone to Thorpe Park on one of Martins 241 offers. So come 8:30 I'll be changing my name to Billy.

Managed to make the £3 for my meal deal today as well, no sure how long I can keep it up for, but I'm edging ever closer to my free meal. Tempted to keep on picking up a boots magazine everytime I get one so I can clip out the 20p off voucher.

You're doing so well on that challenge Dinah! You'll smash the 20k target by the end of the year.
On my savings challenge, not including the money my sister is giving me for the Wii, I need to be saving £80 a week, which'll leave me with £20 'spends' money each payday after a bank Holiday, and £30 on a normal week after board. Which is very do-able. Need to save an extra £50 a month too to cover monthly DD. Told my Grandad about the target last night, who seems to think I'll be able to do it. He's the only person I've told outside MSE, so this is a semi-secret challenge. Mainly so I don't have to put up with the saving lectures after a few weeks!

Right, best get to work. My only friend (until OH picks me up) since my family have left me! *takes up drama queen stance*
