Et tu, savingholmes!

I just can't face it beforehand - at the moment if I did it, it would be another source of stress, I just can't go there, sorry guys. But I *do* want to do it.2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -
KC, does it feel as though we are ganging up on you?
Yup
That's probably because we are :rotfl:
I've cut my fringe - it looks ok, and saved me a bit of money for a few more weeks
I got a casino reload to my email today and have done the qualifying wager so hopefully will come out of that with a few £££ in the next few days.....I made a profit on the qualifier (by a £1, but it is a profit!) so won't lose anything even if the bonus doesn't get credited, so all good there.....anyone with a paddy account should check their emails....although I got one but OH didn't so it is obviously invite only.Successful women can still have their feet on the ground.

Oh good, a change of subject! That reminds me - since my Virgin email address was killed by Virgin, I must have loads of bookies where I need to change the email address they use, to one of my others. *another* job to do, rats.
Glad you made a profit on the qualifier too, thats really good.2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -
I almost feel sorry for Karmakat (I say almost because I have to side with the majority or you'll all gang up on me:rotfl:). You've made me need chocolate but I don't want to buy any because I've done that Thornton's deal from another thread. It's mostly for christmas presents but it would be madness not to eat some myself!!
No money on BB for me today but I feel a big win in my waters!
Now, stop talking about chocolate and... erm..go and eat some instead!0 -
It got a virus, and has had to be taken back to nothing.....except, it won't reload XP.....so at the moment it is worse than useless :rolleyes:
The IT guys here have it and keep saying "I'm a bit puzzled"......which doesn't bode well
DS has the the same thing with his laptop - nothing will reload and his IT bod reckons a new hard drive needed. Been through Quidco and got one for under £50 plus cashback
Luckily he had packed up all his uni work up yesterday on an external hard drive :T:T0 -
If I have to spend £50, it will be a whole lot cheaper than buying a new laptop, so I would be happy enough with that.Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes. (Maud Van de Venne)Life begins at the end of your comfort zone (Neale Donald Walsch)0
