    And sponge bob tin was brought from Mr.Cheap! :) Was lovely! I am hoping it will make me not want to un do it in the middle of the year lol!
    I just found 50p under my desk , so that plopped into the tin , 3 pound some thing in a day is not bad but i must remember not to keep filling it because i will soon need the money Lol. For once i am 5 days away from pay day and still have over twenty pounds in my bank account :) lordy i am amazed lol! x

You'll find your numbers at the bottom of the list on post 2 of page 1. If you haven't already done so then read through posts 1 & 2 as it'll help you with any queries.

    Hi there everyone!! :wave:I hope you've been having a good weekend and those of you living in the exceptionally rain hit areas are drying yourselves out today. What some awful weather - AGAIN! Ah well, we can't change it, so we'll press on and hope everyone soon gets back to square one!
    Thanks Sue for your encouraging PM, you are a very kind lady.

    Who is this lady you're talking of rosepink??! ;) You're most welcome and it's good to see you heading on and restarting! I quite understand about the 1st, no problem. :D You're not the only one having had problems so please don't worry.

    Don't worry poorandindenial, it isn't you alone. Just push on from here and look ahead to when you're debt-free, that will be such a great feeling and will come soon enough!! Re your latest thoughts, whatever you think's best is fine.

    Same to you Joyful, it isn't you alone so look ahead to a better year next year, and I do hope your back is so much better so you can get to the CPs! :D

    Good luck with your hopes young Jess, keep it up!
