    Right ladies (and the occassional gent), just remembered I have a night at the Travelodge in central Leeds all paid up for tomorrow night. I can't go because of my knee. I know its not really travelling weather, but if anyone wants it pm me and I will send you the booking number, name its booked under and everything, and you can have a night away on me.

    I've just had 73 product suggestions accepted on Dooyoo in the last 20mins. I'm scared thats a LOT of reviews!!!

    73?! Those must be stretching back weeks or even months as that's a heck of a lot to come through at once? I've had one come through too so they must be accepting a job lot all at once!

    Oh gosh Pilchard, sending you mega hugs. Sounds like you've had a majorly tough time. Glad to hear your nephew is doing well now, it was actually a hand to mouth moment when I read that! Hope you have a much better 2010, and yay to the new puppy!!

    Zig - My Mum has bought Darcy off me, but rather than paying me I just don't have to pay board until the end of March. Which is about £300, so just about how much I've seen second hand ones go on evilbay for - but minus all the charges!

    73 product suggestions?! I suppose that'll keep you busy alone on your time off!

    I've tried to do some tidying this afternoon as I was walking a bit easier today, only did about 20mins but my knee is screaming at me now. I'm an idiot.

    Evening everyone.

    My gosh Pilchard, i am so sorry to hear about everything you have been through in the last few months. I hope 2010 is a better year for you. I hope your nephew continues to improve, he has my complete respect.

    Another busy day at work, took ages to get there and back again.

    Hope everyone else is well!

    I'll join in the wishes for a better year Pilchard, it sounds like you've been through the wringer but it also sounds like you're being very strong with it all. I'm also sending my best wishes for your nephew, I'm very thankful for your family that he's still with you all.

    Cinny, it seems like selling Darcy was a good idea... and very smart to sell him to your Mum, it means you can still visit him and maybe even ride him from time to time! (Errrr... it sounds like Darcy's a horse right now!)

    Dinah!!!! Don't strain yourself for goodness' sake! People never learn when they're laid up that they're not to move or it'll hurt! I hope you've learnt your lesson! Now stay on the bed and write your reviews!

    Oooh, and my car's happy now after a new battery! Yay! I don't know how much it's costing yet though, my friend's Dad said he'll pop the bill in my letterbox 'at some point', I hope I get mate's rates!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    Evening everyone

    Thanks for all the wishes. I have say today is the first day in a few weeks I've actually felt actually awake and not like I'm drowning under everything so here we go!

    I've got 5 days off now so am determined to get the budget planner up and running and weigh myself on MOnday to start a weight loss programme. For now though I'll update my signature.

    Have a good weekend :beer:
    Let's start again (really need a kick up the bum now) :wall:

    heya everyone! boy its quiet on the weekends!
    Having a bit of a lazy morning here but a little upset I couldn't go and see my boyfriend because the snow is too bad and I didnt want to get stuck up north :(
    I opened an isa for the tax year today (I know I know, i should open it in april but I never got round to it and I don't pay tax yet anyway so not too bad I reckon) but my mum had to pay it from my little kid savings (I didnt realise you had to put the whole £3600 in on day 1!) so now I need to pay it back asap! so that it pretty much my new challenge!!
