    2 more loan payments (just paid my third from last yesterday so you cant be far off :D)!!

    Will that help you have a bit more each month to play with?

    It would help but I am aiming to pay most of it to my CC as I really need to try to get it down to a more manageable level.
    Unfortunatly teenagers are very expensive:eek:

    Good luck Beanie!

    Well, a charity are coming for my sofa on Friday morning, the new one's delivered on Thursday. I'll get ex to help me get the old one outside tomorrow, and I'll cover it in plastic to keep it dry.

    Got my new glasses, but I'm struggling to get used to the stronger lenses, everything seems slightly curved. Hopefully it'll settle down soon.

    I was going to go into town and watch the football, have a meal and a couple of pints. Ex pointed out though that the city centre will be packed so I wont get a seat, the game's in Leeds and it's freshers week. So I'm going to listen to it on the radio instead with a domino's, and a glass of wine.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Ah sorry everyone keeps asking about my times online thing - when I said 'my journal' I meant the academic journal I work for, not my own work...isnt very exciting but we published some research this month about hip replacements on the NHS vs treatment centres...

    I didn't consider it to be 'you journal' when I asked, but I will if it makes you feel better :)

    Interesting, but not surprising, article though. Nice to see a reference to the British Orthopaedic Directors Society...always like to giggle that its appropriate acronym is BODS.
    :p I'm the only gay in this forum :p
