    Looking forward to more coupon cutting and bargain hunting!

    Still to hear from Wanted Down Under :(.

    Never mind - on the plus side realised that I had put down a total of $430 for my Aussie registration whereas it only comes to $315 the lovely Aussie woman tells me :D.

    Well a nice fairly civilised nightshift. I doubt the same will be said of tomorrow night, but nevermind I will be doing a bank shift on the Labour Ward :D.

    DS's Christmas presents are just about entirely bought - few stocking fillers to pick up and a bike to hide. Everybody except my hubby's youngest brother is bought for. Just the mountain of wrapping to do next week when I get home!

    Nothing much on the debt busting front to report until I get home sadly, as hubby is purely stockpiling the mail for me getting home. Heaven forbid he should open it and have a full blown cardiac arrest. He is a little sensitive and take debt collector's threats rather seriously. Not like me, his loving and regularly unstable wife. I laugh in the face of debt collectors threats - well maybe not in their face, but via Royal Mail:rotfl::rotfl:.

    Well hubby was in big trouble last night. Woke me up 14 minutes before my alarm clock was due to interrupt my hibernation. But I let him off with it seeing as he was the bearer of good news ;).

    BBC Researcher called we are through to the final stages of selection - last step before being selected for the actual trip :D. They are too scared to come to Scotland this week what with the wind and all, so want to interview us via Skype before arranging the filming. So think we have settled on Wednesday. This afternoon my flatmate is in charge of teaching me how to skype and how to use a webcam!!!:eek:

    Right must head back off to sleep now after a busy nightshift bank - have booked another 2 nightshifts bank Friday and Saturday result. Does mean I fly back to London 2 days earlier than planned but managed to change my flight for free!!!! Good times. Then when I go back for Christmas I have almost 2 weeks off. Good times indeed :D. Planning a sicky in January too plus maybe a trip to Oz - result.
