    Yeah you never know down here, we do get some extremes.

    Just checked my banking and I've had my tax refund :j

    I received my tax refund cheque yesterday bizzarely! So that's one overdraft paid off :j

    I'm having a NSD today.

    well done scorgeous one!!! We knew you would pass!

    Sally - it's nice by the sea and is only a couple of minute away, but no sea view unfortunately!

    Think if you did have a sea view your rent would be a little bit more! Nice though to be able to walk to the beach!

    Thanks everyone,

    You all had more faith than me. Although to be fair, the pass mark was 50% and I got 50% so only scraped it.

    Sammy you've got three weeks yet haven't you? And yes unfortunately I will be taking my 3 finals in November :eek:

    I have a sea view from my house as we are quite high up but its about a 15 min drive to get there, lovely to see the ferries all white and gleaming as they set off for Holland.


    Does anyone know how to get hair dye off your fingers? I have done DS hair jet black:rolleyes: and my finger must have gone through the glove while I was doing it but didnt notice.

    I look like I have a dead finger end and the nail has gone black too:eek:

    So far I have tried
    soap
    turps
    nailvarnish remover..........its not blummin budging.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
  • Oh my GOD is that the time! I am so late!

    I need to whoosh!

    no tips on the hair dye front except scrubbing really hard Lou good luck xxxxxx
    Nevertheless she persisted.
