    2 little bank nightshifts tonight and tomorrow night on Labour Ward - these shifts never seem as bad as the ones they salary me for - these are the only shifts I don't completely grudge doing!!:p

    Hubby hasn't reported anything massive on the post front - hasn't mentioned a thing. Maybe something really did happen to the postman:rotfl::rotfl:! Anyway off to check my inbox for surveys as I won't have time to do them tonight.

    Due a nice little bank payment tomorrow of around £200 - but can't do anything with this as I've sent the cheque for £233.65 to Santander to clear the loan :(.

    Well the bank payment never went in today, just received a text the bank office saying because of the bank holiday the bank money will be in tomorrow - talk about giving notice!!:mad:

    On the bright side had my PDR with my Manager and she :heart2: me:j.

    Anyway another night bank tonight so best rest my weary head xxj

    PS I am thinking of paying the BT landline a year in advance to avoid the price hike Martin talks about, and saving £24 a year.

    Found the 2 ipod shuffles at last! Just need to summon the energy to list them on ebay! (That energy will need to wait til I get home to Glasgow:rotfl::rotfl:).

    Also still to list are some boys Next jeans (barely worn) - think I could through my sons wardrobe and make a big bundle to list together instead.

    Ladies white converse baseball boots worn twice!!

    Authentic Fendi pochette bag

    BNIB Nerf gun

    And if I'm honest I have a wardrobe full of beautiful French Connection cocktail dresses, and nowhere to go! Should probably strip it down to my favourite 2 and look at selling the rest. I also have some Winter jackets to go - a beautiful cream wool short jacket from M&S worn three times at the most, a long black River Island padded parka, a black Barbour 3/4 jacket, a brown padded parka. And thats just from memory - will need to have a good rummage. Hubby has a green Hugo Boss jumper (worn twice if lucky) to sell, and a couple of Ted Baker tops. He also has a pair of Y3 trainers which could go...........

    Plan when I get home is to ransack the place and ebay like a maddy!!!

    Think I could probably raise £200 for my English test from that little lot:D.

    The cheque for £233.65 to repay the Santander loan came off my bank account today - one less debt officially:j:j:j:j:money::money::money::money:

    My bank payment of £206.85 hit the bank today so that covered most of the Santander loan. Not in a bad place right now:D. Can't wait to get my teeth into a whole weeks post on Monday night. Might delay opening it until Tuesday morning just for the build up!!!

    We still have probably around £20 paypal transfers pending I think.mind%20sold%20on%20ebay.gif

    The only item I have listed for sale on ebay is the blinking ipod I had to relist. I feel naked.

    Just thought - we have a surround sound system to sell which works perfectly except the fan needs replaced in the dvd player - would love to get £30 or so for this. Must ask my lovely hubby to pull it out so I can photograph it on Tuesday.
