    Evening ladies, I'm still here but after all that uni work I went away to download for a week. The festival was amazing but I spent all my pennies and now I'm having to borrow off a friend and I've got my first bank charge in 6 months which is a right pain. Will be back on here once I've sorted my life out as have friends to stay tomorrow and I'm moving in less than 2 wks.

    Oh I got a 2:1 btw :D

    :j:j:j well done you :)

    Well done TDQ. God it's quiet on here at the mo! Hope you are all okay. I'm fine. Social life is even crazier than usual this month so HAVE to keep to budget!

    I think I just blew my budget by buying a BBQ and beer for the beach tomorrow... alliteration, I like it!

    Hiya,
    I've had a week off work done some decorating, and not much else but feel shattered, I know the weather has a lot to do with it, but still. Finances are shocking this month but not too worried they'll even out next month, been paying extra CT and will have it finished end of August, then need to save for the rest of the stuff I need to finish house, then no more decorating, decided to move in 5 years time, so won't be decorating here ever again, it bores the life out of me.

    Hows everyone else doing?

    Hello SAIDer's

    Long time, no post! I've had a bit of a break and been generally trying to sort myself and my life out. I'm probably going to continue having a bit of a break for a little while longer, but just thought I'd say 'Hi! I hope you're all doing well and I'll be back at some point'.

    I've been lurking on and off, but I'm not totally up to date.

    I hope you had a good holiday Shoe Gal!

    Well done on the 2:1 TDQ, good stuff!

    How's the flat makeup?

    Hope everybody else is doing well :)

    Gwenx
    Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending

    Good to see you back however briefly.

    The flat is finally moving forward. I'm hoping to exchange this week and complete next week but we'll see......
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)

    Good luck with all of the flat-related malarky makeup, hope it goes smoothly for you.

    I still haven't seen the room I'm moving into and as it's a single it's gonna be pretty tiny. My stuff fills a large double with built-in wardrobes atm so god knows how it's going to fit!

    Evening all, TDQ this might make me sound a bit snobby but I'm not but I love living on my own and couldn't share my house, I didn't leave home till I was 27, one of the lads at work keeps asking what I'm doing with my spare room, I've told him the spare rooms for my junk and I don't want a lodger, I'm happy been poor living on my own.

    Was feeling a bit peed off earlier there are times I could happily jump up and down on my sisters head and not care if it hurts, she's that dumb she wouldn't notice, but then I realised I had helped someone who I don't know all that well and made a difference, and it's Friday tomorrow and I will finish decorating the kitchen this weekend, hopefully and if not then def next weekend.
