    He thinks its a jet that why we spend so much on petrol, we wont go into the 7k deposit we put down at the start I can :wave::wave:goodbye to that.
    Just shown me his new one its a snip at 28k now i know why we are in this position.

    If i just sit here laughing do you think he will get the message, I suppose its better than rocking in the corner I have a feeling that will happen next week

    As I said earlier he is yet to have his LBM :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    You are so good :A - I managed 16 things on ebay then gave up. In fairness my computer has been playing up and keeps crashing but truth is I was bored! Plus my dh promised to dig out some stuff but then couldn't be bothered, think w're all in same boat with our dh's - we're paddling away to debt free islands while they are checking out magazines for a luxury yacht :rotfl:
    Proud to be dealing with my debts,

    25 a week is a very sensible amount - I could think about signing up to that, as it is the same a month as we did in a weekend!! But watch, next weekend when the mullah comes in, we will be all 'can we do it again' and we are to remind ourselves we most certainly bl00dy cannot!!

    Just asked DH if he appreciated my efforts in trying to make us some money - he replied 'now you want me to thank you for selling my lovely dvd's'. I said nothing!

    Nigh Nite - and thanks for a fun weekend!
