    You can say that again :eek:

    Never had such heights of happiness and depths of carp all within a few hours!

    I might post on my diary tonight, I'm getting a few quid on quidco now and need to step up on the surveys and stuff for the xmas '10 savings. Plus I need to get my finances in order (which are horrendous!!!) in light of my new salary in a couple of months so I can start chipping away at it. I WILL be debt free by the end of the year, that's my goal anyway *rolleyes*

    Speak to you later xx

    Great news on the weight loss.
    You have made a great improvement if the debt isn't going up..It will start to come down in time.It's so hard going and tiring this debtbusting lark.

    Ok , I am just about to go back home . I can now declare that I managed to achieve 41.75 hrs this week . Not the 45 hrs I had planned but as I had to take Thursday morning off with DS2 ... not too bad.

    I will aim for the 45 hrs again this week . It will be a bit more difficult as I will be doing an audit on site at the clients this week and therefore may not be able to stay very late at their offices but we will do our best:).

    Off now to catch some sunshine;)
