    That's great news on the money front Poolie! So will that mean you just owe money to Mrs Poolie?

    Yes it will be jusst Mrs Poolie. The Cunning Plan is working well. last payment to Mrs Poolie is planned 1st May if all goes to plan and no increases in bill costs. More hoping they go down a bit.

    Poolie, I never understand your money talk?

    Best read while a) drunk or b) read backwards or c) while standing on your head.

    Hope you feel better when you wake up Dinah!

    Cinny, learning to drive is great! I have a Corsa SXi 1.2 and I love it - it's perfect. Insurance costs about £400 for me and OH, so maybe you could get another member of your family (your OH?) to go on insurance with you.

    Here's a little pic of baby Q for anyone that cares! :p

    What a little stunner!!!

    Aww Zig, he's such a little cutie!! Lucky big sister!!
    Dinah, that sounds scary about your knee, bet your counting down the days until your appointment.
    Cinny, thats exciting that you're learning to drive! Wish i could. Been saying that since i was 17 though lol. Once i clear my debt, it will be one of the first things on my list.

    Feel really angry with myself today. I gambled. I havent gambled in well over a month and was doing so well. But today i put the £100 i got from A&L and spun it all away. Only thing i can console myself with is that it was free money, that i didnt think i was going to get anyway, but still feel so disappointed in myself. Feel free to give me a telling off :o Urghhh it could've paid towards a debt or my phone bill!! :mad::mad::mad: Noone to blame but myself.

    Get my last wages on Fri, not sure what im going to get as they are paying some holiday owed, so that should be interesting.
    Need to crack on with Dooyoo and Ebay and this, that and the other, but all i am is all talk and no action at the moment.

    Now, to stop bringing the thread down...sorry :o

    Hope your okay Lulu - don't be too mad with yourself - we all slip up from time to time. Have you spoken to anyone about the gambling? £100 is quite a lot to gamble away.

    All of us are always here if you need to talk through it anyway :)

    Ohh exciting about the driving lessons Cinny. I had a Punto until they took it away yesterday :(. We are going for something a bit bigger this time but I have been driving 5 years so is not so bad.

    Zig - he is an absolute cutie, bet you are a proud big sister.

    Lulu - at least like you said it was free money. Just don't do it again, you have learnt a lesson.

    WE have just spent half the day sorting OHs junk out and now have ten bin bags of rubbish eek! Good job we get bin men everyday here.

    We have found an area that we are going to look at flats in tomorrow so am very excited about that. It is a bit further out but we can afford something slightly bigger so is worth looking at.

    Yeah I am, I was a bit downhearted as we couldn't find anything in the area we are looking in originally but there are quite a few where we are looking tomorrow. Will be a good start anyway.
