Morning!
I will not increase debt today although I wont be decreasing it, lol
I have the dentist today for me and the kids so will have to pay for that grrrrrrrrEmpty pockets never held anyone back, only empty heads and empty hearts can do that -Peale0 -
could possibly get it cheaper at a breaker, ebay is actually MORE expensive than buying direct from ford - go figure
anyways i have found a bit online where someone has fixed theirs with tent pegs and some glue so if i can get it open i will be looking at doing that, if its possible with what ever damage i might have caused to get it openDrop a brand challenge
on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)0 -

Luc, I was thinking tomorrow - I don't want to stop halfway through a day, it'll throw me out. And it gives me time to go get Polos and stuff with supermarket vouchers** Total debt: £6950.82 ± May NSDs 1/10 **** Fat Bum Shrinking: -7/56lbs **

How many would you smoke between now and bedtime normally? Try halfing it perhaps? Try displacement activity - every time you crave a ciggie do 20 push ups instead...26.2.19/14.1.19: T MC 3629.26/3629.26 : VM 0% 1050/13876.59 : W 0% 100/1485 = 4409.26/18990.85 =25.17%28.1.19/28.1.19 Hubs 0% £400/£2,977 =13.44%SPC 2019 #073

Morning all!
I ended up watching Kill Bill after all. I'm glad I stayed up, I really enjoyed it. Dean downstairs and his girlfriend woke me up at 2 in the morning doing certain activities, so I've had a bit of a lie-in. I'm going to put some washing in then go for a shower. It's due to rain at about 1 in the afternoon so I'm thinking I'll wait until it's finished and then stick the washing out to dry, rather than chancing it by trying to dry it before the rain starts. And then onto more essay writing. I didn't hit 1000 words yesterday, not by a long way, but that's ok as I realise that was a bit unrealistic anyway.
@ claire - Hope your leg feels better soon. I've forgotten who it was last night who suggested stretching exercises but that sounds good, it might help untrap the nerve, whereas painkillers would just mask it.
@ Luc - Really wish I could join in but my debt-busting's on a bit of a hold until the camping trip's over. It's gonna be an expensive weekend.
