Single and in Debt Part 3- The problem of surplus and excess women
Comments

Hi I've been at work today, made myself a cantonese curry with tesco value prawns and sharwoods sauce at £1 with rice, then minstrels after with a cheap glass of rose.
Im sick of my mobile phone had it four years now.
How can I save on getting one on my existing pay as you go with o2, I ususally top up £10 a month, want one with a good camera on it and only need it for texting cause dont use the web on it.
Got £20 cashback on quidco to spend on the phone? Or do I get £12 discount by upgrading through o2 bearing in mind I want to spend as little as possible.

Due to upgrade myself but keep being offered an iphone - and not really sure I want one

Arghh!!! Up too early again :mad: I feel ok now, but I expect to crash later

Sorry, I don't know much about phone packages either. I got a new mobile deal last June/July with vodafone which is £10/month. Can't remember how many minutes and texts I get, but I thought it was pretty good at the time and got £90 cashback through Quidco. It is a 2 year contract though, but obviously with the cashback it worked out a fair bit less than £10/month.

Morning gwen!
I am up stupidly early too :mad: Am trying to force myself to make good use of it but so far have only managed cereal, coffee and MSE!!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Sometimes it's hard to walk in a single woman's shoes - that's why we need really special ones!Total debt @ Oct 2008: £29,226.42 Credit Card- £[STRIKE]7493.56[/STRIKE] - £7243.56Weightloss : 0/34lbs0 -

I'm going to try and make use of it, but all in good time, eh?

Going to tackle my list shortly...but remembered I have a small dilemma for you SAID peeps...my Dad has added me on facebook. So far I've ignored it and I think I can get away with that by saying 'I don't go on it very often', but I can't say that forever. What do I do? The thing is my Dad tends to take whatever information I tell him about myself, twist it and throw it back in my face. So if I say something that's even slightly open to interpretation, he will come to the worst possible conclusion and then use that as evidence that I am a lazy cow or something similar at a later date...so obviously I'm reluctant to give him access to more information about me, but don't really want to totally p1ss him off either. Hmmm...:think: Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending0 -

Decided I'm just crap at staying away from my ex, it hurts too much, so he is back in my life-but just as friends. Love him too much not to have him around, so we will have to find our way round it all. See how this goes!
In other news, I have a date tonight!!!!! VERY excited, he seems lovely, and very keen. He suggested we go out tonight, and is taking me out for a meal, he won't tell me where, and is picking me up at . Scary stuff, it's been years! But he seems lovely.
Hows things on the love front for everyone else? Did you arrange to meet up with your POF man Souk? Anyone else found someone fun?x
Hope the date went well, be careful with your ex hun x
I haven't posted for a bit as not really single anymore....well don't officially have a boyfriend yet but should be official soon, how do you ask a man to be ur boyfriend once you reach mid twenties? I told him I really liked him, he said he really liked me, I said could i keep seeing him, he said yes.....thats as far as it got :rotfl:
Oh and hes from match and is defo my match, people who read my diary will know already but hes pretty much a male version of me its a tad scary! But great, I am smitten!

You can block what individual people see, I have that done on a few "friends" so u could choose not for him to see your status and wall etc. And just pretend its cos u never use it.....Now a SAHM trying to earn some spare pennies each month0 -

mmmmmmmmmm........... that's a tough one gwen, not sure really! How much stuff do you put on Facebook? (I am a very infrequent user, and only ever really make the odd comment on other people's stuff, don't really ever update my own status or put photos on) I suppose it would depend what your Dad is likely to find out?

Not sure you do ask as such - I think it just kinda becomes obvious if you are a couple or not? When you can assume you will spend weekends/holidays together, when you can make plans for each other etc?
