    DH owed money by o2 as well. He signed up for new contract part of which entitled him to 6 months line rental paid back, or something like that!

    How were they in work today when you declined the kind offer?

    Where is the holiday to - I must have missed that? Did DH get his passport sorted?

    DH pre ordered the new iphone 4 and then they couldnt deliver it so he had a little tantrum and demanded his money back, which I was grateful for as had it planned to pay off Virgin, still waiting.

    Work is kind of strange keep getting asked to stay on a daily basis one of the directors said if I dont like it let them know I can still go back to my old job.

    Holiday is in corfu and I cant wait but will be doing my cash shuffle early this month as we are away for the last week of the month.

    Paying off Virgin is going to leave things tight this month so some careful planning is needed.
    Paid £35 off this morning with amazon cash going to see what i can transfer tonight from leftovers in the bank.

    Going to have my cards read tomorrow night again everything she told me last time has come true :).
    Thursday I am collecting my new car well new to me so hopefully that will be a big worry as my car is very poorly :(

    Good woman yourself!

    Is that the same woman you went to a few months back, did she not say something about a car and a job?

    Corfu - nicest holiday I ever had was to there - beautiful little village!

    Yep same woman, she told me about car, job and some extra cash coming our way we certainly didnt think DH would get a bonus. Just want to see if anything come out about the new job always a little apprehensive changing jobs.
    I'm not going to get sub £40k this month, close but not close enough off to update spreadsheet and see how close i got.

    OK signature updated based on wages tomorrow only needed £350 to get sub £40k.
    Virgin will be gone tomorrow, well until I can get them to give me a balance transfer to take my next debt.
    Next on the hit list is Lloyds No 1 £6590 if they would just refund me the £700 I am chasing things would be looking mighty rosy.
    Enough plans for tonight need to do the ironing

    What a marvellous signature, you should keep virgin on just to show how far you have come.

    £350 - sure thats a night of ebay for you!

    That card reader sounds great - we should all go!
