Sub Prime Credit Thread Part III

Am I crazy? My mother has gone to Spain for two weeks, so it's just me (18) and my brother (20). My brother has just told me he's having 'friends' over on Saturday. I hate his friends, I never get any sleep, they always have music loud and it turns into a full blown party.
I'm thinking of booking into a travelodge for Saturday night. It's £50... I don't want to stay with friends or family either, so I might just book it. I'm working 3pm till 10pm on Saturday and the travelodge is right next to work, so I can walk out of work at 10pm, straight into a nice comfy room.
Waste of money much?...
A Level results tomorrow.
just make sure that you get him to do the tidying afterwards0 -

Yep, you get the £125 limit as we all do, log out and clear history etc then log back in and if the limit has gone then they have changed their minds. If it reappears then cool....
Its the way they work, every1 gets £125 to start and when they log out it can disappear (i.e. declined)2010 - year of the troll
