    Hiya,

    I need to leave the house in an hour to go to London for the weekend so I've got to get a bit of a rush on. I should be able to post this evening once I get there. I seem to be coming down with a cold as well, all I need when I'm trying to get motivated. :mad:

    Have you got the glasses on right now? Tell us how much you can see of them...

    So it doesn't really matter what they look like to you - it's what they look like to other people.

    I use the same train of thought with my clothes. Can't you tell? ;)

    Bloody hell i'm in a right panic. I know by now i should know the answer to this sort of question but I can't think straight. A & L have taken 75 quid out of my accoun this morning saying that I should have transferred my bill money a day early.

    This is my statement.

    thay have said thateven though it looks like the money was in before it wasn't really and its my fault for not paying the money in early. The Od on this acc is 1500 quid and as you can see this will leave me 64.23 over my limit. Which of course they will charge me for even more.
