We have been given a chocolate fountain, which is very cool and I'm looking forward to using it, howver, the chocolate to put in it costs near-on £20!!! Does anyone else have a fountain and do you put your own recipe/chocolate in? If so, any recommendations?! thank you!

...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -
Ooooh vodka fountain, I am liking it!!
Just debating whether to dye my hair before my date tonight. It doesn't really need it, but I always feel a bit more glam with newly dyed hair.
Just wish these horrible cramps would go away. :wall:"I wasn't wrong, I just wasn't right enough.":smileyhea97800072589250 -
Right! Well advice time now from you please! We've moved on from chocolate I'm afraid!
OH has been to the job centre and because he's not made enough NI contributions, he's not entitled to claim jobseekers. I think we're able to claim council tax benefit, but is there anything else?
I now have the tools to write to my credit cards and get them to take a token payment from me each month.
Is there anything else I could be doing?Official DFW Nerd Club #20 :cool: Proud To Be Dealing With My Debts

I don't generally do mine right before a big night out because I think it makes me smell of hair dye more than anything else (and I don't want to risk the occasional times when I dye my ears/ neck/etc) Debt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0 -
