    Glad it went well Wendz!

    I'm failing on the DY challenge already - can't think of anything else to review at the moment!

    Will be a while yet as they have to get a job and then be there 6 months so I might be waiting a long time but will be a good bonus if it does happen.

    Hey Wendz I need a job! Anything you can refer me to!?!?! I know I'm not doing your course but hey, its worth an ask!
    I went to one of those talks yesterday though, it didn't seem too helpful, although they are looking for a toy buyer and I really do love toys! (you should see my bed! its full of cuddlies!)

    Oooh, toy buyer sounds fun! I love toys, my dream job would be working for Barbie so I could play with dolls all day.

    I'm glad your presentation went well Wendz, I hope people sign up and stick to it!

    I've not written any reviews since starting the challenge, I haven't seemed to have the time! Must write some this weekend!

    I dont seem to be getting as many rates, it seems to be really slow. Well thats my excuse anyway :D

    I wrote one yesterday, but dont know whether to put it up today or tonight, dont even know if it makes a difference but it seems too.

    Need to write as many as i can, while i'm in the mood. But only seem to be able to write one a day :o

    Fingers crossed Wendz, you're so brave being able to talk to a room full of people!

    Hope the MRI finds something easy-to-fix Dinah, let us know. Did you go sewing the other night by the way?

    How's the driving going Cinny?

    Love those papers you should definitely get some Poddle, I love the parrot one!

    I've only done one review since starting the challenge too, and it was in the Discussion category, but hopefully it's put my head in the right place! I've got a couple of empty toiletry bits in my bag to try anf write about today, though work seems to be getting in the way! :angry:

    I've written a few reviews but I've had to reassess the money sitch, its still not going well and I don't really understand why :( I moved £200 from savings and its all gone, I had £30 in cash from my mum and thats all gone, I know I paid 2 bills and my rent but I have to pay rent again in about 2 weeks, and I need to pay my water bill soon which I didnt think about! grrr
    I am hoping ill get my dooyoo cheque soon though and I'm loving this challenge for helping me to push towards the next one! I think I might have to borrow some more money back from savings or from my mum or my bf its just so hard!! grrr
    ohh to rate everyones new stuff!

    Sounds like time for a spending diary Tink... sorry things aren't going well but on the bright side at least it's savings your spending and not overdraft, I know it's a sad feeling to let go of savings but it's better than the panicky debt feeling!
