    Hi Froggy,

    Your "life in a nutshell" really puts things into focus, doesn't it? Without a diary days just float away, but writing it all down keeps it moving forward easier, hopefully. It does for me. It also shows you just how far you've come and how well you've done.

    Someone has a DFW diary entitled "In the words of Yazz ...." :D

    My sad thought association on your diary is every time you mention your lovely cat I think "there's a guy works down the chip shop swears he's Elvis" !!! Kirsty MacColl (Fairytale of New York is her more well known song) I believe You may or may not know that song, which I hope, for your sanity's sake, you don't!!!!

    Cat_mad - Superpoints is no more! They went into administration at the beginning of this month!!!! :(

    I do agree MT.. Sometimes, it's good to look back to see how much you have achieved.. It helps see how far you've come..

    BTW, I do know that song :o

    hope all is well with you MT?

    Cheers

    Mad busy at work, barely time to breathe.. Then traffic has been horrendous lately.. I am averaging a daily commute of 4 hours when it should only take me 40 minutes :mad::mad:

    Oh well, can't complain too much..
    I have managed to escape at lunchtime into town, I bought a few xmas presents (especially the ones that have to be sent abroad) plus my Mum's birthday present.. A couple of presents ordered online as well..

    Not much news apart from that.. December will be very busy for us at work, there is no sign of slow down for the year end festivities..

    Work xmas party to look forward to at the end of next week, and a team lunch the day before in a posh restaurant..

    Hope everybody is well?

    Cheers
    Froggy :D

    HI MCI

    Thanks for popping by.. Yes it doesn't get easier towards the end year.. Everything is geared up to year end in my job..

    An easier commute today, which helps a lot.. I got home at a decent time, trying to work out what to do with myself with that much spare time..

    Pizza and football on the box tonight, trying to get warm under the cover on the sofa.. It's freezing out there..

    2 more days till the weekend..

    Cheers

    Feeling well under the weather tonight.. Started feeling ill on the way home after work.. Very strange as I was alright all day..
    No idea what's wrong with me.. Just can't face food or anything at all..
    Hopefully a good night sleep will help..

    No money news.. Still more xmas gifts to buy and cards to write..

    Back at work.. Feeling a bit better thanks..
    Am just hoping that I won't be ill this weekend.. There are quite a few people ill in the office, so there might be a bug going around..:o

    Quick question with those with FD.. I have an 8% regular saver that matures in March 13.. Do you know what kind of saving product they offer you after that?

    Thanks
