sold 3 out of 4 items on ebay relisted the other which immediately got a bid 3 @ 99p and 1 at £1.45 will keep the postage and payments in paypal and pay to send from bank account and put MILs money in the tin, we are quarter the way there to getting all the flowers from an ebay seller. OH decided silk flowers for her and 2 older bridesmaids as they are only used for walking down the aisle and photos then they get moved for rest of the day this will save a good £150.
OH has finished one of the small crystal bouquet shes made a really nice job of it, i tried to post a picture but it wouldnt let me!
I am hoping the weather is OK on sunday if its dry im going to do a carboot sale I also have the possibility of overtime on Saturday.Debt at LBM £19700 :eek:

Good to hear about the dog, have you got the pups aswell? bet they are so cute. How is DD now? ok I hope.
I wanna see the pics of OHs bouquet she has made, good idea about the flowers, it's crazy how much people spend on things like that!! I think it's free listing on ebay this weekend so might be better for you if you have got more to put on.Married 1st October 2015:heartpuls

Hi snowmore, just checking in and my, you've been a busy boy of late!
10 out of 10 for effort (and a gold star)
Mrs R#Tesco 0% NIL Jan 2010
# RBS 3.9% NIL Oct 2010
# Virgin 0% £2670.92 Oct 2010
# RBS O/D NIL - repaid with redundancy pay Jan 20100 -
Thank you Mrs R, I have certainly had my handsfull!
I did have overtime today worked till 12.30 so that should be included in this months pay as the cut off for payroll is close of business monday. OH gets 6 months worth of holiday and bank holiday pay at the end of this month, fingers crossed it covers the first month of nursery fees, after the wedding I think we should be in a position that OH could go part-time we will have 2 debts paid off by then which comes to £280 per month and next december OH will pay the final payment on her loan which is another £241. This time next year we will be at least £521 a month better off!!!! and if we can keep this pace up hopefully the CC's and overdrafts will also be dramatically reduced.
Decided against doing a carboot tomorrow I am shattered will do it in a few weeks.Debt at LBM £19700 :eek:

I'm not on Facebook
I know, probably the only person that isn't but it's not recommended in my job and know a fair few people that have been in trouble over it, so it's not worth it. Gutted, I really wanna see em.
Oh my god 5 babies??? I want one I want one.... bet they are so cute, do you sell them?
Did you do a carboot??Married 1st October 2015:heartpuls
1st Baby due June 2016 :happylove0 -
Didnt do a carbooot, it was too busy at home. OH had an appointment for wedding hair/makeup people to come and see her. Plus people coming to see pups.
The pups were a bit of an accident we were looking after a relatives Cocker Spaniel we didnt realise she was in season no signs or anything, we sold 2 today one lady gave us £250 deposit and another £50 we have someone coming tomorrow morning and someone who will make there minds up on the picture if we could email it (not doing this as we want see and speak with all owners to be sure of best homes) by the weekend they should all have names and new homes to go to. We wanted to keep one but cant really. They are adorable they are on freeads the only ones in Plymouth my sons holding them in a green liverpool top.
What kind of work do you do? Facebook is a bit hit and miss we arnt huge fans who spend loads of time on it we keep in contact with family who are up the line, plus the majority of my friends live in somerset where i grew up so its nice to still chat now and then.
Well todays been productive paid £200 to reception venue and £100 deposit on hair and makeup, and we have a guareenteed £700 in Feb.Debt at LBM £19700 :eek:
