    I think you will win it, i have faith in you.

    My OH was walking round singing 'if you like it then you should have put a ring on it' at half 6 this morning. Honestly I think I may shoot him before he gets round to proposing haha.

    Wendz - Threaten to hold a shot gun to his wedding veg till he does propose might speed things up.

    Very quiet on here today especially for a Friday.

    It is nearly like a ghost town.
  • Hey Poolie - do you know what an error message containing "character string buffer too small" might mean? I think you'll have more of an idea than our so-called technical helpdesk!

    Wendz - Sounds like your OH is enjoying this, I hope he does propose now!

    Off work today, got a 24hr bug I think. Feel awful! Just came on to sort my money out online I haven't been paid.. again. My Dad said I should be paid tomorrow, but I doubt it'll go in until Monday. Thankfully I still have £20 in my purse from last week to last me until I do get paid. But using that ruins my Crimble present fund! :(

    Urgh, that sucks Cinny! Definitely time to get a Christmas job at Boots, at least you'll get paid regularly and your present fund will go further!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    That sounds like you have a field or form where you are trying to type too much information. ie you have more character than the string buffer will accept.

    Aww bless you Cinny are you ok?
    Thanks for your tips about the GHDs btw, if anyone has anymore that would be good...?!!
    I was supposed to be working on it today but i am feeling a liiiiittle hungover.. even though I didn't drink that much last night :( because i really dont have the money, think i spent £6 which is pretty good but hey!
    Went to lacrosse last night and it was good, but left me so tired and cold fingers so i had a lie in today lol. :D need to clean my room though as it was a bit of a whirlwind here last night, literally in from laX and then 10 mins later, changed make up and outta here!! feel a bit bad for my room though its a tip!!

    I nearly have 10000 doooyoo miles though!! i know thats not loads but i still dont really get the site, I need to do some more reviews and improve their quality but really I just want people to read the ones ive allready done more, each one only has about 10 reads so I dont know, if anyone has any advice...?!!

    Think I'm going to put master chef on and try and blitz my room in less than 15 mins so I can go and cook lunch for my friend before uni :)

    oooh and to keep this money related - just did my bingoport for the day, (im doing the method I think wendz said on here about cashing out when you win over 10 or something on the slots) and I'm going to be able to get £5 on me and OHs accounts!! We're hoping all of our christmas presents (and some extra treats!) will be able to come from amazon vouchers this year, have £80 saved in there so far!!
    and also just got up to payout on valued opinions!! every little helps lol

    not seeing the boy this weekend, but he's prebooked a train for next week and thats saved some money so every little helps,

    If the money has not gone into day then it will be Monday before you pay shows it is clearing as there will not be a direct credit file loaded by the bank till tonight dated for Monday.
