:mad::mad::mad:Not having a good day today!:mad::mad::mad:
Stupid guy shot out on to the roundabout I was going over and smashed into the side of the car so fast that it knocked me to the otherside of the roundabout!
Two very caved in doors and completely scratched up paintwork down one side!
His fault as he pulled out, he has admitted liability, and I got his details.
No-one was hurt though so very lucky.
Worst news - my Dad's car not mine!!!:eek:Debt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0 -

Oh nooooooooo Beccie, I saw your FB late last night, what a bummer
. Make sure you get yourself checked out by a doctor if you even had a hint of whiplash. Someone ran into the back of me in the snow last year and at the time I felt ok but I still get trapped nerves in my neck!
Hope that the insurance all gets sorted quickly

Feeling a little stiff today but not too bad, apparently if I'm still ok tomorrow that's as bad as it will get. Lots of advice from people - seems like plenty of people have been run into! Hoping that lunchtime session at the gym will stretch me out anyway!
Thanks Jody, will do that. Hoping as I was hit from the side that whiplash might not be so much of a problem?
Everyone has been so nice to me at work and stuff which has been lovely. Was weird yesterday - I was fine getting out the car and dealing with the guy but as soon as I got back in the car I was shaking and crying and when I got to work they said I was white. Was knackered by the end of the day yesterday but much better today so that's good!
Transfer to MBNA has gone through!Have had to add the hotel onto that card though as I don't get my bonus till the end of the month. 58 days interest free though so will just pay all that at the end of the month and then will finally have a zero balance. Need to do and updated debt summary to post on here as so many things have moved but will do that in September when everythings a bit more organised and London is paid off.
Used lastminute to get a 5 star hotel on that secret hotel deal which has worked out really cheap which is good, plus cashback of course!
Oh and snowball payment of £300 this month - don't ask me how - but already achieved!:D Making the most of my last month of not paying rent!

You should be very proud of yourself hun!!!
I'm on a bit of a downer today... I feel like I have no money, my car is a shed and I'd love a holiday but I have no idea when that will happen... Ahhh how I wish I could turn the clock back, or go back in time and speak to my 18 year old self... I'd tell her not to act like a Fool!!!! Lol!
Ahhh well, the weekend will soon be here, time to chin up!!

Congrats on making the snowball payment! It's nice to be able to meet them every month when you can
As for the crash, have you had the insurance company on the phone to you yet about injuries? You should get checked, you can claim compensation if there's any damage there you know. Better to be safe than sorry.

Chin up, Claire, it will all come together in the end.
Or you could be more MSE like me and not have a car cause it's too expensive and then just trash someone else's instead like me!:rotfl:*virtual high 5*

Thanks Adam.
Hadn't even thought about compensation. I really do think I'm fine and definitely feel less stiff after going to the gym at lunch time.
I have been warned by a couple of people that it may kick in tomorrow though so will wait and see...:(Debt at LBM Apr 2010 £28,767 Debt free as of Nov 2013 :j0 -
Morning hun, I hope you aren't feeling the after effects of the shunt today! I love the new ticker too, seeing it like that really brings home how much progress you have made so far
.
Is it this weekend you are going to London or am I in a pickle and all confused? If it is, make sure you have a fab time :beer:
