    I guess they're still working on the probs. Mine seems ok now apart from logging me out.

    Well done on your first win spuffy! :j Hope there's many more to come.

    VW, good for you paying off your credit card. You can relax a bit more now. :) Good luck with the BP, hope all is well xx

  • OMG, had shock earlier when DD gets called up in assembly getting a 'golden ticket' which usually they get for good behaviour - she got it for sending a postcard to school from Florida. Anycase at front of assembly her & headteacher are whispering to each other & DD's face lights up, headteacher then came to find me afterwards to say she's won a competition but only had a little information something to do with books & halfords vouchers so I've just googled it & found she's won THIS -

    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=30279561&postcount=1586

    Her name & school is here http://www.travellingbooks.co.uk/competitions/winners.asp

    She has been nagging for a new bike for well over a year but with her being so tall I haven't been able to afford a new one & she outgrew the one she had a long time ago so to say she's pleased is a massive understatement.

    School didn't have a lot of info about it, just they'd had a phone call asking if she went to that school & checking the address to send the vouchers to so they will be sent to school soon & she'll be given them in assembly.

    Just waiting for her to come home from school now so I can give her the full details, might even let her look at Halfords website to give her an idea of what she might want.
    2025 - finally back comping after a stressful house move - send me fairy dust please
