Massive debts

You are doing well clearing everything that you aren't taking with you. Keep it up and before long you will hit your target balance x

It must be an amazing feeling to have money behind you :D

Thanks everyone!

Lots of running around to do, just remembered that the party is on Friday:eek:.

We have had one of our photos blown up to have friends sign it at the party so we can send it to Australia and have it framed over there. Also have to put my big wedge of cash in the bank:p.

Hair do at 1.30pm, need to pick up helium cannister at Tesco £19.97 to fill the party balloons and some toilet roll for the guests coming.

Still need to email my employer to let them know the Visa has been granted, email it to Singapore airlines for them to approve our increased free baggage. Also need to complete the school enrolment form and Alan's application for his restricted licence:eek::eek::eek::eek:.

Lots of admin to do, as well as the debt letters I've been threatening to do for weeks. Also Alan's tax return was sent back today - we forgot to fill out a box - must get that sent back too.

Forgot to say - Alan had a transformer (big yellow box for plugging 110v tools into) which he sold on Gumtree last night for £30:D. Still have 2 bikes to list on Gumtree, Alan's golf clubs, storage drawers from under the bed, beautiful overmantel mirror by Next, big silver mirror from our bedroom, and probably more! Think Alan might have more tools to sell too. He has been buying some new ones as apparently they are expensive over in Oz.

The Chaise longue and the sofa are still to be sold so will sort that out by readvertising on Gumtree at slightly cheaper prices.

Also need to list more on eBay, and probably have a thousand other things to do

Also have more listings ending on eBay today (just two).:j

Thanks .

Feeling rather pleased with myself, although I did make one rather large boo boo.:mad:

I miscalculated how many payments were outstanding on the car, and I had to settle that yesterday which was just over £900 so that wiped a chunk off my balance. Also had to send off forms for Alan to get his Electrical Licence in Oz which was another $300. Both were necessary expenditure, just a bit annoyed about the car one as I had nagged Alan sufficiently for around 3 months to phone and confirm how much was outstanding.:mad:

Never mind, have gotten up early this morning as I decided there weren't enough hours in the day to get done what I have to do.

Have visitors from London coming tomorrow for the party, so need to make the house and the little furniture we have left look presentable.:p

Also, despite lots of interest in the "free to a good home" hamster (vicious little bugg@r) on Gumtree, no-one has come to collect the little blighter, so he is getting dropped off at Pets at Home today (in a bit of a baby left on a doorstep stylee).:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Have to go into the DVLA to purchase a duplicate V5 for the car we sold, as I threw ours in the confidential waste at work in a flurry of clearing out:o. £25 out of my fund:mad::mad::mad::mad:. Stoopid stoopid girl.

Also have to go to Hobbycraft to get a large piece of card to mount the photo on for people to sign and a tube big enough to package it all in. It's all very flash, I'm doing my running around in my neighbours spare car which is a BMW Z4! Bless her, she phoned to put me on the insurance (it didn't cost her a penny) so that I could use both her cars before we go so we could sell ours. She is our first visitor in Oz (she has booked flights for January 14th), and will be looked after well :A.

Have emailed Oz this morning my Visa confirmation and asked them to confirm starting dates, shifts etc.

Already have listed the underbed storage drawers, and a New Davina McCall Aerobic Step (never opened which is probably why I'm still fat:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:). Both on for £10:j.

Will be doing a bit more Gumtreeing and possibly some eBay listing later today. Back soon.

PS 3 weeks today:p
