  • So I asked her, she gets paid the 5th of November and says a payment will be winging it's way to me then, I didn't ask how much but I did tell her that I would be paying it against my loan.

    Feel a bit better now... :)

  • Yeah definately don't expect it to be the full £300 she owes me, I'm going to hazard a guess at £50, anything more is a bonus!

    Well done pennies! :j
  • I must add that there will be more coming off the loan shortly, but awaiting expenses being paid, a £10 payout from Lightspeed, money from Sister and a couple of standing order payments from my bank to the loan...

    Late night shopping tonight, Boots extravaganza, might start the xmas shopping... :o

  • £10 is now transferring from Paypal into my bank, as soon as it hits it will be going straight back out, winging its way to the loan.

    Well ended up spending £60 in boots last night :o But I did get 7 presents, saved £15 with the 3 for 2 offer and got £12 worth of points on my advantage card so I'm quite happy.

    Last year I used all my points in the sale and got a couple of bits for myself (that I asked for and no one got me), xmas cards, paper and a couple of birthday presents...

  • Well it will be another £10 off the loan, hopefully it will be in my account by Monday.

    Forgot to say, I met up with my Mum and sister to go to boots last night, they had mince pies, wine and a prize draw. Mum and sister weren't that interested in it all but I talked them into entering.

    My mum only won a Kodak Digital Camera worth at least £60!!! (might be more, not sure exactly which one it is that is on their site)

    Expenses haven't been paid to me yet, thinking of sending an email to accounts manager but she seems in a bad mood so don't want to rock the boat! :o
