    Hi everyone!

    Another £2.25 for me please.

    Really annoyed because my friend is back in the country from Afghanistan and because of those bleddy fraudsters I can't get any money out to go down and see him. Gotta try and borrow some now.

    Ths signature is out of date because I'm too lazy to update it... :o

  • A man walks into a drug store with his 8-year old son.
    They happen to walk by the condom display, and the
    Boy asks, 'What are these, Dad?'
    To which the man matter-of-factly replies, 'Those are called condoms, son. Men use them to have safe sex.''
    'Oh I see,' replied the boy.' Yes, I've heard of that in health class at school.'
    He looks over the display and picks up a Package of 3 and asks, 'Why are there 3 in this package?'
    The dad replies,
    'Those are for high schoolboys, one for Friday, one for Saturday, and one For Sunday.'
    'Cool' says the boy. He notices a 6 pack and asks,
    'Then who are these for?'
    'Those are for college men,' the dad answers,
    'TWO for Friday, TWO for Saturday and TWO for Sunday.'
    'WOW!' exclaimed the boy, 'then who uses THESE?' he asks, picking up a 12 Pack.
    With a sigh and a tear in his eye, the dad replied,
    'Those are for Married men. One for January, one for February, one for March.......

    Lemma - I too would just like to say your signature is inspiring, not long to go for you now and well done, I can't congratulate you enough.

    Oh thank you so much. ;) I decided to just go for it. Short to medium term pain for the long term gain. Its not been easy and i have been very stressed quite honestly. A lot has had to go, i have sold stuff, worked more, the kids have gone without some of the expected luxuries and moaned as a result. But we still have a roof over our heads, clothes and food and until we are debt free i will continue to pound away at this.

    I have watched my mum and dad struggle for years - they are aged 69 and 81. They have muddled through but the distress i have seen over the years from them has inspired me to blast this here and now. I don't want that stress at their age.

  • G'day PADers!

    PAD of £4.23 to c/c for me today. I just found out that I need to shell out around £90 to have my carpets steam cleaned when I move out after all (thought I'd be able to do them myself, but ohhhhh nooooo). B*gger.

    Ah well - onwards and upwards, eh?

    Have wonderful weekends all! :o

  • Just realised that it is a year since I have joined PAD :beer:

    A modest total by some on here but this is money that would not have even registered before and is strictly that any other payments I have made off debt I have not counted. So it comes to over £10 a day and I am pleased with that especially in the view of two pay cuts.

    So still no PADding for me as I am in overdraft but reclaimed my overpaid tax yesterday and that will pay off my overdraft and put me back in credit again and it is payday at the end of the month although it is by cheque so I have to wait for it to clear. So I will be PADding again soon.

    I have offered to total for Nov if nobody else fancies a go but if anyone is anxious to have a go then please speak up I won't be offended:rotfl:

    Loving the new dairy farms on farmville and the flowers. I still haven't received any fertiliser to hand out that ribbon is going to take forever.
