PAP - Why on earth would someone send you a pm about your doll collecting? What business is it of theirs anyway?
I used to like looking at your sig and seeing how close you were to getting the next one.
Some people really have nothing better to do with their lives than upset other people. I am really annoyed!
Anyway didn't you have a signature that said something about doing what you wanted to do despite what other people said - I know it was nothing like that but the sentiment was the same?OD [STRIKE] £2600 [/STRIKE] £0 :j Loan [STRIKE]£9500.00[/STRIKE] £0 :j Car [STRIKE]£3150[/STRIKE] £0 :j Moving Costs [STRIKE]£1300[/STRIKE] £0 :j Savings £1150 :j

LMC, I was tempted by a Radley bag in the Debenhams online sale, reduced from £125 to £30. I didn't need it though, and it wasn't a style that was any use to me, so I resisted. It was pretty though!Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0

Hi Everyone!
I'm new here, and thought this part of the forum looked like a nice friendly place to start! I came across this website last week when I was searching for information on applying for flats and the stuff they do when you apply for one.
I'm currently around £9,500 in debt (I'm going to look over it all today and calculate how it's broken down, but yesterday I had some great news...I got the flat I applied for with my boyfriend and at £390 pcm it's £110 cheaper than the one we're currently in, It's in a lovely area too and even has it's own garage, I'm so excited! We're just waiting on the company we're renting from to get new lino and carpet fitted and then they're going to ring back with a date we can move inCan't wait!
I'm also happy as I've been given 6.5 hours a week more on my contract at work, which works out at an extra £162 a month, almost paying my half of the rent!
Lots going on here thenI'm going to have a look around this forum and familarise myself with it, looks like a great place, so glad I found it!
Hope everyones having a lovely day so far

Had to get some more socks as I keep getting holes in mine - that's what I get for buying socks that are 4-7.....bless M&S for doing 4-8's....they fit!** Total debt: £6950.82 ± May NSDs 1/10 **** Fat Bum Shrinking: -7/56lbs **

Afternoon
Had a lie in this morning and a lazy morning
Paul and the boys are going to the rugby this afternoon, so i'm going to potter around doing bits in the house, my kitchen is looking fab now,still a few marks on the wall and the ceiling but that will be fixed with a bit of paint
If the weather stays dry might go and clean the front up a bit and get it more presentable.
wish Dh would get his head out of the clouds and come back to reality, he's reaming off what he wants done in the bathroom, like taking a perfectly good working radiator out and putting oil radiators in and heated towel rails instead, just told him that theres nothing wrong with the radiator whats the point of spending money we haven't got on stuff we don't need, he just walked off in a huff and said like always we have to do everything your wayBoiler pot £30.92/£10000 -
Hello,
been to parkrun this morning and I think I beat last week's time too :T
waiting for results now
...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -
Linda you are doing so well with your running - well done xOD [STRIKE] £2600 [/STRIKE] £0 :j Loan [STRIKE]£9500.00[/STRIKE] £0 :j Car [STRIKE]£3150[/STRIKE] £0 :j Moving Costs [STRIKE]£1300[/STRIKE] £0 :j Savings £1150 :j
