    Thank you Pippo and Paul.

    I'm pretty upset today. I'm up so early and there's no need to be, but can't calm my mind right now.

    But I can'r risk another trip to the airport in this weather. Taxi nearly crashed on way home because of ice and snow (on the motorway!!). Thankfully, he regained control quickly and the roads were very quiet.

    Gonna do some webcam calls with the family and then see them in January when it should all be back to normal. Fingers crossed anyway. Just not the same.

    Sorry, I'm such a downer today. :(

    Oh yes, not to mention the cost. 140 Euro's in taxi's! Luckily, my Mum has given me some money to cover it, bless her. Still thinking of my well being even when she's upset. I'm very lucky really.

  • ...and before I forget, my PaD is £180 to Provi yesterday, one loan is now gone only one left.

    Euro so sorry that after all the upset over BA, its the weather thats defeated you.

    Hugs to everybody else that needs them.

    P.S had interview with agency yesterday and the job I originally went for was so badly described that when I got there it was instantly obvious it wasn't for me, but they have got meetings lined up in early Jan that they think are more my thing so may have a job even if only temp.

    Hello everyone,

    Sorry to hear you couldn't get back in the end Euro, such a shame.

    Green, can't believe your dog :rotfl::o no wonder she was poorly!

    Well tonight I have to go on the annual pilgrimage to Sunderland via Sheffield to see the boyfriends parents. After then we'll be at my mums for a couple of days so I'm not sure when I'll be next able to PAD, which is why I'm going update my signature and do them in advance:

    22nd - £6
    23rd - £6
    24th - £6
    25th - £6
    26th - £6 thanks Gilli.

    I've been faffing for most of the morning but now I have to actually go and do something and start cleaning, tidying, packing up the car etc.

    Have a lovely Christmas everyone if I don't see you all before.

    xx
    Ths signature is out of date because I'm too lazy to update it... :o

    MinnieMe ecxuse me for being blunt but yeah, I think that idea is good in theory but may not be the best way to go about it. How would you go around making £10 a day? What if you couldn't manage it for a few days/weeks?

    If you wanted to get a new car then you could always try to save your suggested amount of £10 a day for a few months thus, at the very least, making the loan smaller. If you paid off any outstanding debt first that may also help as you won't need to worry about commitments.

    Obviously this is only my opinion (had you asked me earlier this year I would have said go for it!) as I tend to live safe now because I don't want to end up with no cash to buy nappies/food for my babies.


    Sorry i missed your reply angelic!

    I knwo what you mean though probably didn't explain myself very well. I wouldn't be relying on the making £10 a day to cover the loan, I could cover it without making the money but was kinda just thinking out loud.

    I know I should probably wait until the end of next year when I should have cleared my debt but for a lot of reasons March time next year is the right time for me to change my car.

    I aoeciate the reply though -s till have a lot to think about
