  • I thought Marshall Ward was down to £85 now? (Or probably I should go back as I might have read that wrong :o)

    Me impatient? No? :confused::rotfl:

    Oh hahaha I seeeee! Well, yes I guess it is £85 now - but I was just waiting until the Paypal money hits my account hopefully tomorrow as I was planning on chucking that at the Marshall Ward too;)

    But......if you insist...I'll change it now:rotfl:

    That'll teach me not to read properly I thought it had already gone to them :rotfl:

    But at least this way you have to stick to the payment :rotfl::rotfl:

    OH no, you did read right - I did pay the £12 to Marshall Ward yesterday, I just meant I was delaying updating my sig til the £30 Paypal money goes to the account too!! So hopefully the £30 will arrive in the bank tomorrow and I'll throw that Marshall Ward's way too....lucky them:rolleyes:

    Think we're confusing each other here!:rotfl::rotfl:

    Ok...I confess, the £30 from Paypal hasn't gone to Marshall Ward - I've had to put it in my spending account as it was £90 overdrawn...booooo.
    I have the £35 coming back from Tesco though and £150 tax credits tomorrow, so it'll be healthier then:o

    But - DD2 needs a coat for autumn, last years was a hand me down of DD1's and is now too small. There's one she likes in NewLook and want to buy it on Fri while they're in stock. SO that's the £30 accounted for.

    On Friday we're just nipping to see my mum who's babysitting my little niece (18months) - we don't have a New Look here so want to get it while I can. Cheap day out - Mum's at my sister's house looking after niece, so will eat my sis's food for lunch:rotfl:

    Today DD1 has gone to the cinema with her pal - Orange 2 for 1 cost me £5.20 for both and pal's mum said she'll give me her half. They went with popcorn and drinks from tesco;)

    Girls have 2 friends sleeping over tonight, so keeps them out of my hair:D

    I had a PIN number arrive today from Co-op - so guess I got accepted for the credit card (0%) I applied for! Hope the card comes soon now so I can transfer the Egg balance:p

    Listed a few more bits on ebay this afternoon - I have about 25 items now and 1 watcher....great:rotfl:

    Great news on the Co-op card, have banked with them for over 25 years and have never had reason to complain I think they are great.

    Don't worry too much about the £30.00 you can use your next lot of Ebay money to throw at Marshall Ward ;)

    Hope the girls are having a great time with their friends :eek: 4 girls you are brave :rotfl:

    I love New Look they have some lovely items, DD bought a pair of sandals their yesterday for £5.00 reduced from £30.00.

    I do have another £30 on it's way from Paypal (the book and fairy lights money) - so I did think that can go to Marshall Ward:p
    Also, once I'm back at work and spending is seriously reduced then I'll be able to throw more at it - I'm still certain that it'll get paid off by the end of September:D

    Girls are all pretty quiet right now - playing some farm game on facebook on the laptop:p The 2 that are staying are sisters and in same classes as my 2 - been friends since nursery, so I know all will get on....they are always very good when they stay!!

    Small steps Milly you will get there :D, I have no doubt that it will be cleared by the end of September.

    That is lovely when they all get on so well you don't mind when they stay over, it is company for your 2 girls.

    That farm game is very popular on facebook, a lot of my friends play it, the last item that I downloaded on facebook messed my computer up so no more for me.

    Did the selfish :wall: get back to you regarding non payment?

    He says he now gets paid monthly, not weekly and thought his money would go in early this week:confused: Says he thought there was enough to pay me - I've told him I expect double next Monday...we shall see. I'm far too accommodatinng with him I think, need to be tough:D

    If I do get the £80 (double) on Monday, that'll get my account back on track, no using the overdraft....I'll be happy then;)
