Trouble is the majority of the people out will be about 18 and at 30 you end up feeling kind of ancient on a night out, I reckon I can get away with 26 though lol!
Is it rude of me to ask how old you are Woowoo? I am 41 and going out on saturday nights makes me feel like the oldest swinger in town these days! Not that that stops me...
anyway, have lovely time (whatever you wear) and just wanted to say quick morning as I'm going off line shortly for the rest of the day!0 -

Hi Woowoo!
I feel like I know you lol! ( how scary does that sound from some random on the internet haha!) I have just finished reading your WHOLE diary! I started on Monday! Thank you so much for sharing your journey, you have inspired many! I finally registered today on this site to say thank you to you and to start making full use of this fantastic resource that Martin has set up!
You have DONE so well! Despite the fighting fairies and chasing non existent owls haha! ( see, told ya I read it all!) A complete inspiration!
I dont have CC debt as such, my rating has always been to shot to even get one! We do though live beyond our overdraft every month and have debts that are mainly stupid interest! Grrrr Our situation is a bit more complex as we are a forces family living in Germany and whilst we have our budget sorted over here, we have our UK bank that has important DD's going out etc and thats the bank that is bleeming scary to look at and which you have motivated me to fix! Thank you!
Anyway, just wanted to say hi and good luck with it all, I shall be a regular reader

Hi Yum
Thanks for your post, I can't believe you read through all my rambling!
It is true that you come to feel like you know everyone personally on here, after sharing all the ups and downs.
There are some great girls on here, try and track down Beccie's and Jody's (jtr2803) thread, there's always a lot of chatting on there!
I would love to hear more about your life in Germany? xLBM Aug 09: £18,650.47 - Current: £12,854.93 (£5946.79)
