    Have fun at your graduation Gar - how exciting! Is it the day you get your prize as well?

    Morning all,

    Graduation couldn't be described as "fun" sadly - after I had been up I was bored for the next 2 hours! Never mind, almost missed the award ceremony:rolleyes:!!! My "prize" was £50 of book tokens and a tomato plant - not a big juicy cheque funnily enough:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:!

    Having problems with my broadband this morning, so off to speak to o2 x J Back later when I don't have to sit in the cupbard:D

    Good luck. I'm with O2 as well, never again. They're terrible.

    Hi Gargrave,
    Just wanted to say hello :hello:. I've been reading odd posts on your thread for a little while but decided to read right the way through - it's taken me 3 days in shifts....

    What you've done since you started this thread is amazing, you are a real inspiration to all of us out there in debt and I'm subscribing to your thread right now so I can keep updated with your progress.

    Congratulations on graduating. It's very early days with your new job and things are bound to be difficult, especially as you're away from home as well. Hang on in there, you're a very strong lady and you'll get through it.

    Look forward to the next episodes in your debt-busting quest.

    After ranting at o2 after a 15 minute wait to speak to someone - I remembered I changed my broadband to Sky (as it was free) - oops:p

    Hi Solvent,

    Thanks for reading. Who would have thought when I started this that it would take someone 3 days to read the entire thing:rolleyes:. I expected it to get lost amongst the zillions of debt free wannabee threads:o.

    Just wanted to see feeling better about my job (probably because I'm at home), but I got my first pay (without any unsocial hours as I won't get them until next month) and I was really pleased (£1887.90) - its almost worth it:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:.
    I'm trying to be really strong because I just want to settle in and get on with it:rolleyes:.

    Anyway I appreciate you taking the time to read through the entire thread - and hopefully I'll have lots more good news to report soon. Next haven't replied to my F&F - oh well. I expected as much, but thought they might write to decline it?:confused:
