    Morning all!

    I'm going to finish checking the boards, then have a shower and go back to bed. Have to go out at 7 in case anyone saw the posters and things book club is tonight - typically after I started advertising it we've put it back a week!
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

  • Morning all,

    Waiting for a call back from my car insurance company telling me how my change of address will affect my policy (please don't let them charge me too much, it's got to go on the card anyway). Thankfully, my renewal date isn't until 29th Nov, by which point I'll have had another bursary which should cover it. It's another day of sorting my room out, after e-mailing my tutor with an idea of what my dissertation might be about. Then work out how I'm going to pay my library fines so I can get more books out for the formative assessments my tutors want in next Fri! :eek: Eeek, pressure!

    £50.20! :eek: That's my DFD another month away. :( Then again, the snowball calculator doesn't know about my next loan payment at Xmas, which will completely wipe out the remaining debt (I hope).

    PS It looks like I calculated my figures wrong to start with. My DFD has just got closer! :j

  • It's cold at this end too, I've got back into bed. My tutor's just e-mailed me back to confirm my dissertation topic. I'm doing it on the idea that the Harry Potter books (possibly films too) are converting children to witchcraft. It should be a really interesting topic.

    well, Evie is fed and now in bed for her lunchtime nap. I'm cooking pasta with salmon and maybe pesto (or thai curry paste) for my lunch. it's whatever sauce I have in the fridge... it could even be pasta, salmon and sweet chilli sauce!

    OMFG:mad::mad::mad::mad: I've just had a communique from Halifax aka the robbin barstewards! They're no longer paying interest on my current account and if I use an authorised overdraft will charge £1 a day up to £2500, £2 a day for authorised overdrafts over £2500 and £5 a day for UNAUTHORISED OVERDRAFTS!!! I've no idea how many days between now and the end of my maternity leave (and the possibility of clearing my overdraft) but I think I'll be paying them £1 a day for the next blooming year! Just what I need when I'm skint!

    My Mum and Dad's fire has a remote control...it's a source of endless entertainment to the kids... :rotfl:

    I've just painted one side of my bedroom door. Wasn't in the mood at all but it looks quite good - think I like painting woodwork more than walls!

    Just remembered I was moving money around whilst under the influence of mulled wine at Bunny's. Better go and check I didn't do anything silly! :D
