Nataz well done.

Whilst we are on the subject of cars my insurance runs out in July by which time i probably will have default notices on my credit file. If i buy my insurance on line and pay monthly will my credit file be checked by the insurance company or not? I would have thought that if they do not receive the monthly payment via Direct Debit then they will stop the insurance does anyone have any experience of this the same applies to my house insurance.

Any help much appreciated.

Just renewed both OH's and mine, no problems, and still paying monthly, so don't worry.

Well done Nat, you've got new freedoms now.
LJM hope you are keeping better, slowly slowly

Erm, bin bag wearing???

advanced excel....................boooorrrring

when runners are waiting to start in the big races (lots of people) they have to put their clothes in a bagdrop or give their stuff to someone to hold (usually me). So they are stripped off to the running shorts and vest BUT they often have to wait up to 20 minutes to actually start running cos of the sheer numbers of people in the race (think London marathon), so they wear BINBAGS with their heads sticking out the top to keep the wind off, I kid you not, and I did tell you they were all mental...............

Hi, just checking in! Nothing much DMP to report, looks like all going to plan, statements coming in with balances going down for once!!!

I think in my pain yesterday I caused a little confusion over my injury....

I hurt my back twice in the last few weeks but the torn ligaments are in my ankle, and the back pain was like a tickle in comparison. Anyway, I have not had any pain killers today which means I can have some Bacardi Breezer when I watch Gossip Girl on +1 and I can put my foot down and take small steps:j The best bit is my DH doesn't start work till 3pm this week so I get to sleep late while he "educates" the kids :rotfl:Then my mum comes round when he goes to work to feed me and the kids.

MIL tomorrow, even better as my mum takes it too easy:rotfl:

I have made many unsubtle hints about a box of treats from Lush but no-one is hearing me....

Thanks True. Think the chip shop gave you a much needed lift at the time but now seems like a stepping stone to something new... have you heard from CAB?

Very true Ted. I hardly recognise the me of six months ago anymore. I haven't heard a peep from them actually - must chase, thank you for reminding me

I really like Excel that's the geek in me attempting to re-emerge :rotfl:

Ok, binbags to keep the wind off. Of course! Why didn't I think of that....PDD, I think your OH might be a bit weird :rotfl:

Sounds like you've got it almost sorted LJM!! Glad they're looking after you, there has to be an upside to being laid up!! Hope they pick up the Lush hints too lol x

Hate to disappoint but I only ever got 2 acknowledgements, and that wasn't until after CCCS wrote to them, everyone else cashed the money, but ignored my letter.

Enjoy the day off though!
