    Hi guys

    60.00 please Green to my Next account - thanks for the adding up.

    Sitting here freezing waiting on the plumber to call as our boiler packed up last night - hoping it is something simple (and cheap - do plumbers do cheap ?:D) DS2 had to sleep in living room on the sofa in sleeping bag last night though he didnt seem to mind. Had to buy more oil to as we have had it on longer - have you seen the price of it?:mad: Lucky it's pay day i suppose!

    Anyway hugs to jenny & luke - what a c**p day to have:A

  • JENNY & LUKE - Gosh what a day! :shocked:
    Reminded me of when my poor son working at fast food place to pay for college and his first little car parked it at work, just about to finish when jeep flew off roundabout and totally wrecked it. Thank god he wasn't in it and thank god you all weren't hurt. But the ensuing incovenience , ay ay ay ! And that was only one thing !

    £200 for me today to my tuition fees ! :eek:

    Hi everyone!

    Igiveup, Greenbynature is the person who's counting - but you can post in green if you want!

    Jenny, can't believe your run of bad lukc but at least you are not hurt as others have said.

    No, we didn't get a snow day Danko - well unfair! Glad your course is going well! By the way (can't remember if I said this before) I have a hamster who looks just like yours :rotfl:she's called Poppy! Aren't they cute little critters!!

    ***NEWSFLASH***

    Well I have suffered a bit of a setback to my debt free plans - my boyfriend has finally had his LBM and confessed earlier to about 3k worth of debts; one of which requires a full and final settlement of £680 by the end of the month or they would have taken him to court :eek:.

    So we sat down and did a bit of a budget, and I am going to lend him the £680 from my old Barclays overdraft which I have nearly paid off, but still has the overdraft facility. Its a cheap overdraft though so it isn't too bad. We also figured out how he's going to pay the others off as quickly as possible and also pay me back. It's a major setback to my plans but the way I see it we both need to be debt free so If it has to happen like this then thats the way it's got to be.

    I just feel a bit deflated now because I was so looking forward to being able to announce paying of my old overdraft - now it's at least another 6 months :mad: but hey ho.

    Because of this my pad for this month is going to be pretty low, as I'm not getting anything off him towards the rent. So could you put me down for £186.76 please Green, for the month so far. I'll do what I can as we go along.

    My car also has it's MOT tomorrow - wish us luck :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
