Another beautiful piece of needlework just under my belt for your information
.
Last of the 3 nightshifts bank tonight then back to reality with 5 pesky nights which apparently they are paying me my salary to work - the cheek:p.
Got only £712.58 for my 4 bank nightshifts last week. Rather disappointed by this as I usually clear £200 a night. I suspect its the tax man taking his wedge because I got them all paid together:mad:.
Never mind, I DO realise that this is actually quite a'lot of money:cool:.
Onward and upward, heard back from Wescot and they are asking Santander for the credit agreement for the old Cahoot loan. I suspect they will find this difficult, but waiting eagerly to see whether PPI was unknowingly lumped on, and making a F&F as they have received no payments from us in 2 years;).LBM 30/6/9 Unsecured debts [STRIKE]£25,323.48[/STRIKE] £0 :T Debt free

BTW the bike is sorted for transport to work.............but has 2 punctures!:rotfl::rotfl:
My Boss from work cycles and she is going to come and fix them for me once I've bought 2 new inner tubes. Might check ebay for these.
Also, just realised I have inadvertedly had 3 NSD's these last 3 nightshifts. Also have a lift from my housemate for the next 2 nights so might just stretch it out to 5 NSDs!!:DLBM 30/6/9 Unsecured debts [STRIKE]£25,323.48[/STRIKE] £0 :T Debt free

Oh and the ebay listings are still going well, have 5 days still to run and lots of interest on just about everything. DS's football kits are leading the way, have another huge pile of them to list
.
Also have beautiful Kurt Geiger heels to list.............can't see my lifestyle in Oz requiring a pair of black satin platform stilettos.

Its going really well apart from the punctures!
My lifestyle already doesnt require any fancy footwear! Hope they make a mint for you xTrying to shift that debt!0 -
Listed the Kurt Geiger heels, and relisted hubby's Replay jeans, and my River Island jeans. The RI jeans and Replay ones already sold but the buyers haven't paid despite opening a case for non payment against them. They sold 2 weeks ago, no payment:mad:. I intend to go and chop their bidding fingers off as a stern warning.
Listed also my Fendi bag tonight - put a buy it now of £70 or best offer:cool:.
Going to spend my break photocopying the documents to be certified for our emigration, doing the surveys in my inbox and listing some more on ebay thanks to my iphone:D.LBM 30/6/9 Unsecured debts [STRIKE]£25,323.48[/STRIKE] £0 :T Debt free

Excellent ebaying Julie. I'm a bit worried your house is going to be very empty long before you actually go!gargrave50 wrote: »Listed the Kurt Geiger heels.
I couldn't bring myself to part with any KGs! And these ones of yours are pretty, you are being very ruthless! I really need to start having a proper declutter but I get very attached to things.
When are you hoping to emigrate?, I'm sure its in your posts but I can't just see.A smile enriches those who receive without making poorer those who giveor "It costs nowt to be nice"0
