    morning everyone!!! red, who is this 6 million dollar lady??? wish i was her with 6 million dollars in the bank! :rotfl:

    today, I know that there will be cakes. instead of a cake i've asked for an apple how sad am i!! :rotfl:

    ok so, finances.. first a total moan whinge grump if i can indulge myself for a second please. D has now decided, after all my hard work saving, that he doesnt know if HE wants to spend money on a week away.. so i have a week off work, a small pot of money, was so looking forward to a week in the sun but something which he soooo wanted to do, putting pressure on me and making me panic he now doesnt. MEN!!!!!:mad::mad: i tell you, you cant live with them, you cant shoot them. i despair. but i guess the good thing that has come out of it is that it has shown me that I can save when i need to, and this has given me the drive, by seeing a positive balance, to make that positive balance bigger. I worked out my surplus from my salary this month and if we dont go away it will be £400 if we do go away it will be £488 (deduction in fuel/food etc for the week away) I havent had a surplus that big since i dont know when and the thought of using it to get out of debt fills me with :j:j:j:rotfl:
    i have also lost my mse way with regards to all the little things i used to do that got the extra money, dooyoo reviews, matched betting which i used to do a lot of, scratches and the simple stuff like amazon and ebay. I dont really like ebay anymore it really annoys me and seems a bit like a car boot sale, people want good quality stuff for completely giveaway prices and are all to quick to leave derogatory feed back when you have done nada wrong.
    oh dear P do shut up with the whinging will you!! :cool::rotfl:
    so i will make myself a list of tasks, starting tomorrow (as i really need to go have a shower else i will be all smelly at work and thats never a good look on anyone!) to do 2 matched bets and 4 dooyoo reviews per week. amazon and ebay i'm still debating...

    Right shower time, have a lovely day. oh and LT, i was quite simply eating my dinner. but if you imagine a 3 year old child eating their tea, that is me:rotfl:

    Happy Tuesday everyone. xxx

  • Helloooo.. the surplus sounds good either way. Men though! (where is the rolling eyes smiley when you need it).

    The new beast sounds very nice.. I know nothing about bikes except that I would probably fall off one but sort of like the idea of them anyway :D

    York was lovely - it was an amazingly hot sunny day! Didn't go up the minster (ooh err) - we thought it was a bit expensive to get in and the tower bit was full when we were there! We did have a good walk round the walls though :) No pasties.. we did stuff our faces at Nandos though :D

    I will google Beast mark 2 and have a look.. hmm I'm currently struggling with the exercise bike in the gym (haven't fallen off that though!)

    Have a good day! x
