I thought Joe was very good this evening.........and can definitely see him winning if he keeps performing like that!Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0

Woohoo, finally one of the bets has gone my way; as a love in-play bet, bet on away side winning 2-1 @ 8.5, waited till it went to 1-1 before laying it at 3.7 for £20 profit, a bit scary as for a long time it looked like I wouldnt make anything from it, so £17 up now for these offers with one more freebie to come tomorrowMortgage Total: £51,549 / £75,000

A good and not so good morning so far ... I won 50p on the scratchcard and £10 on the bingo :j However, when I tried to deposit £10 so I could withdraw it it was declined. I know theres money in the account so had to phone up the ank and the fraud prevention dept decided I have done too many internet transactions recently :mad: Yes I have deposited at 3 bookies yesterday (only £100 each) and I bought som stuff from M&S (£8 :rolleyes:) but that hardly makes me high risk surely?? They tried saying they called me yesterday to sort it but we were in all day and there was no call :mad: :mad: GRRR!!!!!!!
Anyway, all sorted now, but I may be looking at taking my banking elsewhere I thinkMortgage Total: £51,549 / £75,000

thats what I said to the guy on the phone, but he said not many people deposit at 3 bookies in a day :eek: Is it illegal?? NO!!!!! I'm guessing it must be the £8 in M&S that did it, must really flag me up as dodgy that one :rolleyes: :rotfl:Mortgage Total: £51,549 / £75,000

BBAM, I got a similiar rubbish response when I got my CC cancelled recently but apparently someone else was also trying to buy stuff over the internet using the details so maybe something like that has happened.
I love lists too, nearly as much as spreadsheets...Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000
Mortgage balance: £36,210
Money making challenge £38/400

Right, I've had a bath, got dressed, attacked the eyebrows, and done lots of general tidying, but that wasn't on the list
Okay, plan of action is this: we're going to make some cakes, then ds will have his bath while they're cooking/cooling, then we'll ice them. After that I want to get the photos ordered and some ebay bits done and I have to do the bet between 1.30-2.15. Ds wants to go out (in this weather :eek:), so we may pop in to mums this afternoon and on the way back I msust remember to bring in the guinea pigs sawdust from the garage so I can clean them then finally I can hoover once they're done :rolleyes: Forgot to add that I have some stuff to do for school so will do that tonight when ds is in bed. Oh and I need to get ds to do his list in there somewhere too
