    Hi fellow Padders £1.05 for me today.

    Started on the loft, it is all wet up there most things are ruined and I may need to get someone up there to check the leaks :mad:

    Hi all, not been on here for a while but have been lurking. I was doing quite well before Xmas but some problems have made my cc balances go back up :rolleyes:

    The main one being that the boiler in my btl flat needed replacing just after xmas. I did have a bit in savings but not enough so the rest has gone on the cards :o

    Also my tenant hasnt paid any rent since before xmas as her bf has moved in and dhs or whoever had stopped payments until they re-ajust it. They are both unemployed so should get it all paid eventually but just takes time :rolleyes:

    I also lent some money to a friend, i trust him totally and know i will get it back over the next few months so no lectures please :p
    Not been able to get to work much cos of the bad weather so wages have been low :mad:

    And the final nail in the coffin... my fridge freezer is playing up. I have noticed for a couple of days that things in the fridge didnt seem very cold and when i checked the freezer this morning the stuff was half defrosted.

    Have rushed a bag of stuff round to mum in law to store in her chest freezer for now, but i unplugged it for a while as i needed the plug socket for something else, and when i plugged it back in i could hear the motor going so not sure if its gone or not. Gonna check in a couple of hours to see if its getting cold again :cool:

    Anyway enough waffling, just to say that hopefully i will get back into padding very soon. Want these debts gone this year for definate
    On the plus side i did take a couple of dresses back to Tesco that i got in the sale before xmas, so £20 refunded to a cc. Can i count that as a Pad??? Yeah why not £20 PAD please :D

    Btw, is this the last month for council tax payments?

    Take care all ;)
    Errrr...come back later ;)
