    Oh, and I just wanted to say that I've sometimes been a bit critical of my Mum and Dad (I do love them, but they've just got some strange ideas/attitudes about some things), but yesterday they really helped me through a bit of an emotional crisis and were fab! Just felt I should say that for some reason - not sure why as they don't read this (as far as I know :eek:) anyway!

    Afternoon!

    I got a recorded delivery letter this morning (accidentally flashed my boobs at the postman in the process of signing for it, but have already confessed all on another thread so wont go into THAT again :rotfl:).

    It was from work - as part of my 'benefits package' I get store vouchers each quarter (Asda), used to get £270 a quarter, which would pay for one months shopping out of three. I didn't think I would get them while on mat leave, but apparently I do.....and they've gone up!! I've just got £330 of Asda vouchers....woohoo! :beer:

    They'll more or less pay for this months shopping and petrol, so I should be able to put some of our normal 'shopping' money into an account to get my 'save up to pay off the car loan' fund underway! Yipeeeeee!!


    Anybody know how to become a postman!!!

    Ooooh, I've just had a message from someone wanting to buy one of our other items - the offer they've made is a bit too low really so I've emailed back to say if they up the offer by £5, I'll finish the auction now....fingers crossed they say yes.....but knowing my luck they'll tell me where to get off!

    11 items listed now! Still only one bid, but I have some watchers and there's been quite a few people looking, so I'll keep my fingers crossed. Not heard back from the guy who sent me the message, but that item has the most watchers anyway.

    I've been wondering for a while what to do with this thread, as I'm no longer pregnant, and my challenge now is going to be paying off my car loan rather than having a baby on a tight budget. So I think the time has come to end the thread, and possibly start a new one when I have a definite plan of what I'm going to do to repay the loan.

    You're not getting rid of me from DFW though, I'm definitely sticking around!

    So I suppose I just wanted to say, from me, Stu, Ryan and Natasha, thanks very much for reading, for supporting, for all your fantastic suggestions, for making me laugh and cry, and most of all for keeping me sane....ish!

    We really did it - we had a DFW baby!!! :D:D:D

    Lots of love to you all,

    Love Snaggles xxx
