    Maybe Faires can have a dig through the SK books upstairs. I do need to de-clutter (then BUY MORE!!!)


    Ohhh, I have millions of books, so I am sure I would have some for you too !!

    Yup.. Because we earn too much as a household, I assume :confused: Last year it was £47k :cool: (and if anyone know where it all went, please let me know! :o). We get basic CTC now though :)

    Ours was just over £47K last year - letter came today. CTC £90 every 4 weeks and then £40 after 1st year but no WTC :(

    Roll on next year & the lovely lump sum I'll get from being on SMP for 7 months of the year :j

    gos it's not hard to see how people get into massive debt is it! Just checked my next accound and my credit limit is just of £3.5k :eek: I don't even have a job!!

    We should start a book club!

    I've got SK, James Patterson, Thomas Harris, Kathy Reichs (which I nearly sold but MrsT talked me out of it!) and some Patricia Cornwell.

    I got most of my SK books on eBay for 99p each :money:

    Don't get too excited Glam.. I phoned them to say I'd gone from £20k to £5k and they reduced our CTC from £80pm to £72pm! :( You don't get any more unless your household goes below £32k and we don't, we're still on £33k-ish :cool:

    Ohhh a book club! :D

    Glam, I know it's not scary, I'm just really creeped out easily right now. Hormones init? It's like my Zombie Attack fear, SK just makes me see that I should also be afraid of rabid dogs, Tak!, dead cats, mobile phones and superflu :D
