    I notice Fendi bags are not exactly attracting a hoard of attention on ebay - offered it to my friend for £50. She is currently working on her hubby :D.

    Nothing tremendous in the post - just a paper copy of our removals quote.

    Off to start the ebay listings en mass :D.

    Nothing here either. Getting impatient as I am due to hear about four PPI claims by October 28th :mad:

    As I have barged in on the forum I should tell you all a little.

    18 months ago I had the following debts:

    Barclay card £198
    Virgin CC £267
    Santander CC £2500
    Lloyds Overdraft £3000
    A&L Overdraft £1300
    HFC TV Loan £1300
    Car HP £1530

    Now paid Barlcay, virgin and car HP :D HFC Due to pay any day waiting for a cheque to clear so I can do this.

    Lloyds OD stands at £991
    Santander still £2500 hate interest :eek:
    A&L OD still 1300 :(

    Getting there slowly!
    According to ABBA apparently it's a rich mans' world . . .:p

    Well what a day to be at work!!!

    Sweltering heat outside and I'm trapped on the inside :(. Never mind.

    Started the weightwatchers today and so far I'm still alive :p - dreaming of a glass of wine chilled to perfection with my name on it:j. Its 6 points for 250mls (I don't bother with 125ml measures they are no good to anyone). My friend (who is a very determined weightwatcher) tells me to imagine its a big jam donut and that should put me off spending 6 points on it. Well to be perfectly honest it could be a pile of dog !!!!!! for 6 points - I'd still want it!!!!

    Going home tonight to pump up the tyres on my bike and figure out the bike chain. Went to Security today to get the code for the bike hut so I'm all sorted. Cycling to work today and tomorrow for weight loss and to save some money on bus fares (£2.60 a day :D).

    Will probably be in agony this time tomorrow - but this is all in the pursuit of sleek thighs and a fat wallet;).

    Well done. Sounds like you are doing well! I know how it feels I am going out at 6am now for exercise as only time I have. You will get there
